CRITIC OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA'S DESCRIPTION OF HUMANITY AND HUMAN CONDITION

Swami Vivekananda ,one of the famous mystiques of Hindu monism and propononent of advaitha or pantheism held the view that human beings are not sinful but divine.He says in many of his works that ,"It is sin to call man a sinner".He says that those who call man a sinner are not looking at the good aspects of human beings.
Well nothing can be father from the truth.Take for example sewagewater and drinking water.Drinking water is clean so let us keepit sinless and sewage as sin.So now lets add a little bit of sewage to clean drinking water.Now it contains a mixture of drinking water and sewage .If i ask you to drink that water claiming that you have to consider the percentage of cleanwater and not consider the sewage in it ,will you drink it.No ,you will not because you know it is unfit for drinking and needs treatment to filter and purify it.
Denying the fact that man is a sinner is not the solution to the problem of present and prevalent evil and sinfulness.Only if you accept your sinfulness can u give yourself to God and Lord JESUS so that he can purify you and make you fit and set for living life to the fullest.

Jesus said in John 10:10
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly."

That is one of Jesus' Mission ,stating why he came .WHY? That you may have life and have it abundantly,FULLY .The Life he talks about here is the divine life ,the holyspirit who will take residence in you when you accept him and the outworking of that divine life manifesting as love for God and fellowhumans which is holy and acceptable to God.

Swami Vivekananda is like one of those many thieves who have plundered india with their wrong teaching of monism and fatalism.Many people read his books and accept it as such without even thinking a little bit.This wrong teaching about Man's Inherent condition is just one of the many lies from the thief who has shown many a way to hell.

Jesus said,"I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep".
That's exactly what he did.
