Bahujana sukhaya bahujana hitaya cha
... that the Rigveda dictum Bahujana sukhaya bahujana hitaya cha ("for the happiness of the many, for the welfare of the many") was suggested by Gautama Buddha (pictured) and Swami Vivekananda?
Created/expanded by Nvvchar (talk), Titodutta (talk). Nominated by Titodutta (talk) at 10:39, 25 September 2013 (UTC).
The article is very new, long enough, well cited, and without problems, and the image is public domain. What is cited is that Buddha suggested to his disciples to work for the welfare and happiness of the masses under this dictum (offine source accepted AGF). For Swami Vivekananda, what is cited is that he "spoke on this aphorism", stressed "welfare of the many, the happiness of the many" as a message for mankind, and provided an aesthetic vision... so in this hook "and Swami Vivekananda" is not cited; but
I can approve it if the last three words are taken out. Moonraker (talk) 05:06, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- I can not understand, Template:TQ — that is "Bahujana sukhayam bahujana hitaya". --Tito☸Dutta 05:22, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- I have added one more citation, I can add one more offline citation if needed. --Tito☸Dutta 05:27, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- I think we have a language problem here, Titodutta. To say "the Rigveda dictum Bahujana sukhaya bahujana hitaya cha... was suggested by... Swami Vivekananda" is contradicted. It seems it was suggested by Gautama Buddha, interpreted and promoted by Vivekananda. Moonraker (talk) 05:32, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- We could rephrase it all to say; ALT1 ... that the Rigveda dictum Bahujana sukhaya bahujana hitaya cha ("for the happiness of the many, for the welfare of the many") was advocated by Gautama Buddha (pictured) and Swami Vivekananda? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 05:35, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
