Guys GUYS I am an INFJ truther and its because his lectures aren’t indicative of his day-to-day as his letters were. His letters have NUMEROUS instances where he cites his overdeveloped Fe as being a blessing and a curse for his work. Others cite this when they refer to the most poignant memories of him. I think where some are sniffing INTJ, its his 6w5. These two were propelling forces in his life and show themselves in his letters. In his words: “My mistakes were great, but every one of them was from too much love. Would I never had any Bhakti! I went years ago to the Himalayas, never to come back, but my sister committed suicide, the news reached me there, and my weak heart flung me off from peace. It is the weak heart that has driven me out from India to seek some help for those I love. Peace I have sought but the heart, the seat of Bhakti, would not allow me to find it. Struggle and torture; torture and struggle!” [Letter from Dec 12 1899] “In a conflict between the heart and the brain, follow your heart.” [from Raja Yoga, I believe] In the words of others: “Swami Vimalananda writes: “While living in the Baranagore Math, Swamiji was taken ill, and it was necessary in the interest of his health to leave the city. His brother monks, set upon restoring Swamiji to health, collected a few rupees to pay his passage to Shimultala, about 200 miles northwest of Calcutta. One day as Swamiji was going to eat his meal, he saw some poor people anxiously waiting at his door. Upon enquiry, he came to know that they were waiting for the water that the rice was cooked in to satisfy their hunger. Swamiji immediately gave his meal to them and returned to Calcutta.” [‘Thus I Have Heard’, Swami Chetananda] There are numerous other examples of this. There are stories about some overhearing his weeping over the horrific state of India’s poor in the dead of night—he was an insomniac and lost himself in his concern for people, even those who wronged him and cut him off (Leon Landsberg is a good example; V. didn’t volley any venom at him even after Leon severed his relationship to him as beloved friend, roomate, assistant and disciple, though he had many opportunities in his letters to do so). He pushed past his health-limits during the latter act of his life in order to assist people and begin the Ramakrishna Math and Mission. I am anti 9w1 camp for V. His fiery letters about the pursuit of truth and general disgust for hypocrisy torch the implication that as a 9w1, he would prefer passivity to disturbing the peace, and use total retreat as a way to avoid conflict. He always took things head on. “I have no time to be sweet to the world, and every attempt at sweetness makes me a hypocrite. I will die a thousand deaths rather than lead a jelly-fish existence and yield to every requirement of this foolish world, no matter whether it be my own country or a foreign country. You are mistaken, utterly mistaken, if you think I have a work, as Mrs. Bull thinks; I have no work under or beyond the sun. I have a message, and I will give it after my own fashion. I will neither Hinduise my message, nor Christianise it, nor make it any "ise" in the world. I will only my-ise it and that is all. Liberty, Mukti, is all my religion, and everything that tries to curb it, I will avoid by fight or flight. Pooh! I try to pacify the priests!! Sister, do not take this amiss. But you are babies and babies must submit to be taught. You have not yet drunk of that fountain which makes "reason unreason, mortal immortal, this world a zero, and of man a God". Come out if you can of this network of foolishness they call this world. Then I will call you indeed brave and free. If you cannot, cheer those that dare dash this false God, society, to the ground and trample on its unmitigated hypocrisy; if you cannot cheer them, pray, be silent, but do not try to drag them down again into the mire with such false nonsense as compromise and becoming nice and sweet. I hate this world, this dream, this horrible nightmare with its churches and chicaneries, its books and blackguardisms, its fair faces and false hearts, its howling righteousness on the surface and utter hollowness beneath, and, above all, its sanctified shopkeeping. What! measure my soul according to what the bond-slaves of the world say? — Pooh!” [Letter to Mary Hale, 2/1/1895] 9w1? In what world. He spared no one. But cut to prune. The society of his time wasn’t very fond of emotional effusions. His lectures read INTJ for this reason. He was known to be rather emotional and have deep connections with people. Some read it as tempestuous, though he often kept a cool head, he would confide everything to his friends, while navigating the difficult experience of exercising Hindu Monasticism in a modern world. He seemed to me a deeply feeling person, with sky-high ideals, unwilling to compromise for anything, even peace.
