\n\t\t\tBeadon Square Speech
\n\t\t\t\u2014 2
\n\t<\/font><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tTHEN amidst fresh cheers and renewed and prolonged
\n\tshouts of “Bande Mataram” in came Babu Aurobindo
\nGhose and the inevitable rush for
\nrakhi bandhan <\/i>ensued
\n\tfor a few minutes. Babu Aurobindo also spoke a few words in
\nBengali. He said that he was unwilling to speak in a foreign
\n\ttongue on such a sacred occasion. He was not, on the other
\nhand, accustomed to speak in his mother tongue. But he would
\n\tonly say one thing, viz., that the
\nrakhi bandhan <\/i>was not only a
\nbond of thread but it was the semblance of another tie. It was
\n\tthe sign of uniting the hearts of millions of people of United
\nBengal. The rakhi <\/i>might be removed in a day or two but that
\n\tsacred bond of hearts would remain firm through all ages. There
\nwas no power on earth which could untie that sacred knot \u2013it
\n\twas a national bond. They had taken oath. They should stick to
\nit, God helping. <\/font><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tDelivered at Beadon Square, Calcutta, on 16 October 1909, the fourth anniversary<\/i>
\nof the effectuation of the Partition of Bengal. Report published in the
\n<\/i>Bengalee on 17<\/i>
\n\tOctober.<\/i><\/font><\/p>\n
