Information Technology and Spiritual Theology

Sense Perception fails to reach Transcendence -----------------------------------------------

A living being is constituted of body, mind and spirit. In the state of worldly bondage, the function of the spirit remains shadowed due to dormant state of the soul as well as due to the prominence of body and mind. As this world mainly depends on action, human activities assume significance in the maintenance of life system. Since the actions cannot become successful without the guidance of knowledge, the technology of knowledge and information has become a most important part of human civilization. The modern science has therefore produced innumerable equipments and techniques such as telecommunication, computers, electronic media, television, internet, world wide web, control systems, remote sensing automation, software technology etc, that help in the quick dissemination of information. In the fields of various kinds of processing, calculating, controlling, regulating, analyzing, comparing, testing etc the computers and super computers are capable of working thousands of times faster than human brains. At present the computers are used in almost every field of human knowledge. Now the question is that, whether these computers can provide any knowledge about the absolute reality? As the matter obeys the law of physics and chemistry, computers can provide information regarding various material objects under different working conditions. Can the computers predict human behavior? Can the computers provide warning against and protection from flood, famine, war, earthquake, epidemics, robbery, riot, deception, dishonesty, ignorance, wickedness, downfall, degradation and death? The plain fact is that, the human brain works upon the capital of empiric knowledge derived through sense perception. As the senses are defective and the whole knowledge is deceptive, the combinations of these two fold shortcomings influence the human brain as well as all the brain products. The computer being a brainchild of the human beings, invariably that too imbibes this inherent limitation. Consequently, the information technology may provide some limited guidance in the secular dealings whereas regarding the absolute reality, one has to depend upon the spiritual theology or Vedic Knowledge, descending down to this world from the originator Supreme Lord himself.

Spiritual Guidance -------------------

Although the human beings have understood something about the material nature, regarding the life, much of their knowledge is misleading. Living in the midst of ignorance, the worldly man struggles to accommodate himself to varying situations. Among billions who have crossed through the stage of worldly life throughout the centuries, hardly a few have looked about themselves with astonishment. Ordinary people scarcely ponder over the queries like – who am I? What is my relationship with this world? Where from have I come? Why am I here? Where is my real destination? Who is the creator of cosmos? Etc. Everyone undergoes regular changes in body, mind, society, nature, richness etc. Yet the modern man fails to know about the real entity hidden within his frame, which wrongly feels “I am this body “.

Groping in darkness: ---------------------

In spite of the achievements of academic excellence and technical intelligence, man has not been able to solve the basic problems of life. Worldly existence is always becoming a source of anxiety and frustration. The modern science strives to analyze the human system as an automatic machine. But, the human sensitivity for pain and pleasure does not obey the technical scrutiny. Self or consciousness is an inexplicable enigma to the modern science. The individual spirit can neither be proved, nor disproved in the scientific laboratories. Empiric science has no explanation to the facts that, why a man is born ? Why he dies? Why are we alive etc? Billions of men and women are living in this world, yet no two persons look alike. Millions of variations, thousands of temperaments and numberless dispositions are found in them. The disparities like poverty, ignorance, ugliness, ill health, greed and degradation are playing an important role in the unrest and suffering of the society. One has to struggle hard to supply the demands of body, mind, family and the society. The complexities and perplexities of life are so great that every effort of the empiricists towards knowing the secret of life is becoming futile like groping up in darkness

Need of Proper Guidance: --------------------------

As long as the human beings fail to understand about the facts like, the real purpose of human life, absolute supremacy of the Almighty Lord, the inevitability of divine service, the realistic way of human life, universal brotherhood and eradication of inhumanness, they cannot progress even an inch in the proper direction. The foolish materialists conclude that, secularism alone can solve all the problems. Unless the secular endeavors and technical efforts accept the guidance of absolute spiritual realism, they shall fail in mitigating the human suffering. Most of our politicians have not learnt to live like gentle persons; what to speak of their patriotism? Being blinded due to the greed for capturing power, some of them exhibit intolerance, animosity, outrage etc, by adopting falsehood, selfishness, hypocrisy, crookedness and cruelty under the support of money power and muscle power. They try to capture power by making false promises to befool the common people. For gaining cheap popularity they have emptied the national treasuries and ruined the country. Instead of making the masses patriotic, honest and responsible, they are made to be greedy, lazy, antisocial, antinational, atheistic and fanatics by the wrong policies of the rulers and the lawmakers. The reality is that, nobody can provide any real solace to the godless society. Spiritually enlightened citizens can remain ever happy, without the help of the rulers. The secret of human life is that, every activity that is conducive to spiritual awareness provides well being, whereas those acts that go against the spiritual wisdom result in suffering and downfall. The information technology should work under the guidance of spiritual theology, to provide universal welfare.

Sense Perception results in Distraction: --------------------------------------

Immature people think that, material technology can enrich our lives by supplying all our needs. If we look at the human situation, it is observed that, the human suffering and negative trends are alarmingly increasing due to the downfall in spiritual wisdom and human nobility, in spite of our technical progress. Spirit is the source and shelter of the knowledge. The real knowledge descends down from the Supreme Lord. The material world can supply us only some temporary and conditional information regarding the perishable objects. In this regard we come across an anecdote of a farmer. For the purpose of irrigating his farm, the farmer dug a large pond in the middle of his farm. When he found that, the water in the pond is insufficient for his field, he consulted his friends and decided to dig canals to enhance the pool of the water. When he dug ten canals in ten sides connecting his pond, to his utter dismay he found that all the existing water also got escaped through those canals! Our heart is the reservoir of knowledge. We can cultivate and realize the reality through spiritual performances in holy company, under the guidance of Vedic texts. If we discard this proper process of realization and connect ourselves to the mundane world through our ten fold sense organs, all the reserve of our real knowledge shall get drained to cause bankruptcy of our welfare. All the noble traits like kindness; honesty, generosity, responsibility, wisdom, truthfulness, courage, tolerance, politeness etc are the rewards of spiritual culture.

Perverted Intellect: ------------------

The noble qualities of head and heart are essential for the success and welfare of the humanity. If the academically qualified people neglect the spiritual aspect of human life, they turn out to be clever devils to ruin the human society. One should remember the saying “little learning is dangerous”. Such misguided and perverted materialists commit the crimes of befooling the masses, hating the holy souls, blaming God, criticizing the holy texts, dividing the society, driving wedges between various communities, misusing the mass media and criminalizing the politics, to destroy the social and national welfare. Atheists and fanatics are the most dangerous elements that create anti social and anti national crimes.

From darkness Towards Light: -------------------------------

In this mundane world, the human senses are capable of collecting only eclipsed material knowledge. All the material objects existing in this world are relative and destructive. Human sense when gain proximity to the corresponding materials and material qualities, they acquire limited knowledge through sense perception. As the sense organs are incapable of beholding the spiritual reality, their perception is defective. The knowledge collected by them is just like the information collected by blind and deaf persons, as the human senses are blind and deaf towards the spirit. The human senses being extraneously turned, they can feel the external world alone. They have no access to the internal abode of the spiritual reality. The seekers of truth should therefore, turn their attention inwards to realize the reality, without depending upon the Godless culture of this world. The process of devotional culture is capable of spiritualizing the human activities and hence it is capable of creating God consciousness while living in this material world itself. All the activities of devotes such as hearing, speaking, remembering, cooking, eating, earning, spending, seeing, moving, serving, learning, reading, singing, traveling etc, are centered around the Supreme Lord, which keeps them constantly in divine association. The apparent knowledge gained by the senses is just fractional information about the changing world. As the real knowledge is compared with the light, it completely eradicates the darkness of ignorance. The one who has attained the spiritual knowledge shall not have any misconception or misguidance. As the mundane knowledge is always changing, such eclipsed knowledge is a kind of ignorance. The spiritual knowledge is absolute and eternal, as it transcends the triple time and triple qualities. The godless secular knowledge is only a curse for the human beings as it misguides and ruins the people. Every human activity should be conducive to the enfoldment of Spiritual Wisdom.

Thirsty in Water: -----------------

We have understood that material technology and defective logic are irrelevant to the spiritual affairs. The technical bulletins say that, more than 90 percent of the scientists are alive today. Scientific knowledge is doubling every five to six years. Experts predict the pool of information will escalate, -doubling as frequently as every two years. Author John Naisbitt in his best selling book “Mega Trends” summarized the paradox created by this modern phenomenon: “ We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge “. It is hard for the average person to grasp what is happening around him. So much information, so many brilliant brains. Yet our globe is plagued with famine, disease, violence, unrest and destruction. The technology Human Beings have produced has partly become their “Frankenstien Monster”. In spite of all these modern devices, we are living under the ominous cloud of human extinction. This is the genuine confession of intelligentsia regarding the pitiable plight brought upon by the uncontrolled technology, human wickedness and godless materialism.

The elements of Real Knowledge: ----------------------------------

In Srimad BhagavatGita (XIII 8-12) Lord Krishna mentions about the real knowledge, which culminates into divine wisdom. The following are those twenty kinds of remedies that cure the vitiation of Human body and mind. Also they are the constituents of true knowledge. 1) not coveting any honor 2) absence of arrogance 3) harmlessness 4) forgiveness 5) Simplicity 6) service to the holy preceptor 7) inward and outward purity 8) steadiness 9) self restraint 10) dispassion for sense objects 11) absence of egotism 12) constant contemplation on the evils of birth, death, decrepitude, disease and misery 13) non-attachment (for friends and relatives) 14) absence of affinity for the son, the wife home or kin 15) constant balance of mind at the approach of desirable and undesirable events 16) unalloyed and unflinching faith and devotion to Lord Krishna 17) resort to a secluded place 18) apathy for a tumultuous place 19) steadiness in spiritual knowledge of Self and of Godhead and 20) search after the eternal bliss as the end of spiritual knowledge . All these are to regard as true knowledge, and all else as ignorance.

Materialism for Matter and Spiritualism for spirit: ------------------------------------------------

Sense perception should not be used for the search of absolute truth. If you try to search light by the help of darkness, such an effort ends in failure. Those who adopt inductive logic for the search of reality, therefore fail in their endeavor and face self-deception and self defeat due to the contradictory perceptions. Deductive logic is the right process to understand the absolute reality, in which God is realized only by his grace, just as the sun is seen only through sunlight. In seeing the sun, any other light Is neither useful, nor necessary.

Absolute and the Relative: -------------------------

The relation between matter and spirit is that, the spirit is the real entity, whereas matter is its shadow. Some people think that, spirit is anti-matter. The body cannot be antagonistic to the shadow. The fact is that, spirit is quite uncommon with the matter. Spiritual knowledge is uncommon with the material knowledge. As the matter is the shadow of the spirit, we can draw analogies regarding the spirit by carefully studying the basic principles in this material world. Our physical forms are temporary, whereas the spiritual forms are permanent. The worldly existence and relationships are temporary whereas the spiritual existence and relationships are permanent. Materialistic civilization which cares for the extraneous development is transient, imperfect and insignificant; whereas the Vedic civilization is realistic, permanent, blissful, auspicious and universal. The supreme Lord can be realized only through spiritual theology. Our Vedic seers therefore, prayed like this , “ O Lord, kindly take us from, - transitoriness to eternity, from darkness towards light and from mortality to immortality.” The worldly acts should accept the guidance of spiritual wisdom and also they should be always conducive to divine service. This is the path of Universal Welfare.

The entire duration of childhood of the citizens is comparable to the foundation of the human society. Ina completed building, although the foundation is not visible, yet the quality and strength of the infrastructure has a direct bearing upon the society, security, rigidity and longevity of the building. The childhood should be also known as the formative period of human life. All the physical, mental, moral and spiritual defects that creep into human system during this tender age tend to ruin life of the individuals resulting in the destruction of the society and nation. Cultured, truthful, obedient, wise and self-disciplined children shall formulate a worthy society of the nation. Cultured, truthful, obedient, wise and self-disciplined children shall formulate a worthy society of the nation. Anything contrary to this is quite undesirable and harmful to the welfare of the country. It is the prime responsibility of the parents, teachers and the rulers to provide a healthy childhood to the younger generation. Unless these guardians of the society are righteous by themselves, they cannot provide proper guidance to the children.
Among all the worthy instructions, inspiration for good conduct is known to be of foremost importance. All care should be taken towards character building by discarding all kinds of bad habits. At the absence of good conduct, all the agencies like legislature, judiciary, bureaucracy, executive, defense etc shall miserably fail in securing national welfare and suppressing wickedness. Along with the implementation of physical needs and academic intelligence, spiritual wisdom is most essential to save the society from the evils like violence, hypocrisy, cruelty, mistrust, rivalry, hatred, greed, anger, lust, envy, selfishness, harshness, intolerance and impurity. Unrealistic and unpatriotic behavior of the spiritually ignorant leaders submerges the society in an ocean of wickedness. Those who are addicted to materialism, atheism and fanaticism cannot do any real good either to themselves or to the society.
Under the guidance of worthy teachers, in a healthy environment, all the children should be trained to acquire good conduct, generosity, kindness, purity, austerity, patriotism, charity, simplicity, honesty, contentment, tolerance, responsibility, wisdom, courage and devotion. This process not only makes their lives successful, it also shall enlighten their associates. Without spreading the virtue of good conduct in the entire society, no other shot-cut means can eradicate the prevailing evils. Unless all the bricks of a building are of good quality, you cannot build a good building by bad bricks. Today’s children are tomorrow’s pathfinders. The stringent necessity is that, you cannot allow even a single child to be lazy, cunning, violent, wicked, anti-social or anti-national.
Due to the increase in selfish materialism and decrease in the spirit of patriotism, people are losing human values and becoming misguided. Even in our beloved motherland, millions are there to misguide and brainwash the children to train them as immoral, anti-social and anti-nationals. Due to the crime of neglecting our age-old cultural heritage of eternal righteousness, today we are finding crores of selfish, regardless, thoughtless, uncultured, intolerant, inhuman, cunning and wicked people. Corruption is quite rampant in most of the departments, which are expected to be virtuous and righteous. As a result of the degradation and degeneration we are seeing hundreds of crimes and calamities every day in spite of the conservation and regulation efforts by our security, legislature, judiciary, Para-military etc. Simply by boasting about some of our technical facts we can no longer befool ourselves while landing in to ever-new calamities. Atheism, fanaticism, intolerance, riots, violence, terror, deception, misappropriation, corruption etc are eating up the vitals of the society. Our country should become either an ornament of one billion gems or a garden of one billion flowers. All should see that it should not become a desert of one billion thorns, or a den of one billion beasts. If we desire to establish peace, happiness and fraternity in the country, all our citizens should adopt holy character and noble behavior.
Spiritual enlightenment roots out sinful tendency in the same manner as a lamp eradicates darkness. The spiritually enlightened society cannot commit any crime; a sit has no tendency what so ever towards forbidden acts. Because of neglecting the spiritual aspect of human life, we are facing hundreds of problems; as the present day society is steeped in sin and selfishness. Our Godless secularism is doing the work of “caring for the cage and neglecting the bird”. When the root of the tree is neglected, all other efforts to save its leaves, twigs, branches, flowers and the trunk prove to be futile exercise. For nourishing the human constituents like body, mind and the spirit, the most essential factors are material affluence, academic excellence and spiritual wisdom. This full-fledged approach alone can build a healthy society free from evils. Academic culture enhances the qualities of the head, whereas spiritual culture augments the goodness of heart.
Even after securing independence, our academic education has totally neglected the moral land and spiritual aspects of human life. Nobility and spirituality should have been the way of life for all our citizens. Absence of spiritual understanding and excessive materialistic attachment has degraded the society by manifesting selfishness, mistrust, terror, deception, rivalry, cruelty, intolerance and disharmony. Even a little of spiritual maturity can secure a hundred percent welfare of the society, whereas a hundred percent of a Godless secularism cannot achieve even one percent welfare of the society. It is nothing but the decoration of the dead body.
Towards properly bringing up of the children, the moral books say that

Prapte tu Shodeshey Varshey Putrey Mitravadacharet

Young children should be looked after with a great care and affection until their age of five years. Later on, for a period of ten years they should be well disciplined under strict guidance. When they become a youth of sixteen years, they should be treated like intimate friends. The period of five to fifteen years is very crucial in the life of Human Beings. All the negative trends they learn during this age tend to cause permanent deformation of their lives to ruin the society. The audio-visual addiction that has reached every household of the nation is verily corroding the social foundation by teaching laziness, crime, terror, lewdness, greed, mischief, violence and corruption. The children who learn noble culture during this tender age are saved from all kinds of inhuman attitude. If you study the history of terrorists, militants, killers, smugglers, defaulters, deceivers and brutes, the most prominent factor revealed will be about their wicked association during childhood.

Honest citizens alone are the real assets of the nation. This honesty is a direct outcome of well trained and well guided and well-cultured childhood under noble guidance. This aspect of spiritual awareness is quite indispensable for the welfare of the society and the nation. This is the universal solution for all the worldly problems. Just on watering the root of a tree nourishes all the millions of leaves; similarly the spiritual wisdom roots out all your problems forever. Since the good olden days, the worthy rulers, the worthy rulers of our country were guided by realized souls. Lord Rama was guided by Sage Vashistha. King Sivaji was guided by saint Ramadas. Chandragupta was guided by Chanakya. The rulers who do not accept holy guidance shall degrade the society and destroy the nation.

Extracting of hard, tiresome and hazardous labor from young children and depriving them from the basic necessities like education and comfort is a crime against humanity. This problem of child labor chiefly owes its existence to the ignorance and economic weakness of the parents, so also to the greed and wickedness of the employers. For the purpose of solving this social problems the parents should be persuaded through assistance and counseling. The defaulting employers should be dealt with the enforcement of law, legislation, advice, chastisement and penalty. The best course available for solving this problem is that, the same work should be given to the nearest guardian or a relative of the child by relieving the children from their burden and to arrange for their basic education.

Apart form economic weakness, some of the parents earn money through their working children and spend it for drinking, gambling etc. The burden of undue work, misguidance, evil company, lack of education etc finally ruin the life of the working children to create law and order problems. An employer may be allowed to extract easy labour from poor children if he looks after them as his own children by providing them due nourishment and proper education. Also due care should be taken to see that the money earned by these children is not wasted by their elders in gambling, drinking etc.

A note of caution is needed to see that, eradication of child labour should not mean to make them inactive and lazy. Along with school studies, children should be encouraged to engage in various kinds of extra curricular activities, including social service, serving the parents and helping the elders, involving moderate labour in a pleasant environment. A reasonable balance should be achieved between tiresome work and inaction, so that laziness and unproductivity should not prevail in the society. The lawmakers should remember that “an idle brain is devil’s workshop”.

Some motivated people entice the parents of the working children to see that their children are never trained as labours. They instigate that their children should become only leaders and officers. If the programme of eradicating the child labour is aimed at outright converting all our children into masters, officers, managers and politicians who will be there to look after the enormous volume of labour activities that are essential for the sustenance of the nation? If all our students become qualified as postgraduates, they will demand only white-collar jobs and no one of them shall accept to do any manual labor. In fact what we need today is, cleaner minds and dirty fingernails. Those who invent unrealistic slogans and misguiding ideas shall only succeed in befooling the ignorant section of the society to bring about confusion and social unrest. No one should hesitate to do manual labour also, because work is dignity. Only one should always hesitate to do all kinds of unrighteous works. Expecting for easy work, high remuneration, and luxurious amenities all these is a result of immature thinking. Such people are prone to practice corruption and criminalization to achieve easygoing life and to become over-night millionaires.

The natural course of the events is that, there shall be fewer teachers and more students; few managers and many labours; a few rulers and more citizens; less doctors and more patients etc. If everyone becomes a teacher who will be the students? If all are politicians where they can get citizens? If all become managers, where can they get workers? As this arrangement is a natural phenomena, its implementation also should be a natural function. No one is authorized to forcibly occupy the higher positions without having due merit and expertise. The four fold categories like the teaching class, martial class, trading class and working class , these are the natural requirements for the proper functioning of the society. Their selection also should be conducted on a natural and scientific basis.

Regarding the determination of the merit of a child, the Vedic System adopts an aptitude test for the children during their first feeding ceremony and their natural inclination is ascertained. Thereafter they shall be imparted with suitable education as per their merit in Gurukula. For an effective determination of one’s merit and aptitude, a proper scientifically arranged test should be conducted upon every child of our country after the completion of minimum education. Then alone one’s inclination and merit should be declared as belonging to either teaching class, martial class, trading class or working class. These four groups are known as Brahmin, kshatriya, Vaisya and Sudra. The faulty identification purely on hereditary ground should be discouraged. This is the right kind of merit determination to prevent incompetent people degrading the social standards and also to extract the best of our human resource capabilities.

Without determining the exact merit and aptitude of a youth, directing him or her towards any kind of specific career is most unscientific and amounts to a crime against the humanity, as it shall degrade the social order and efficiency. When the teachers are inefficient in the mission of teaching; the ruling class if fails in the act of righteous ruling, protection of the citizens and in arresting the anti national and anti social activities; the trading class if fails in abundant production and distribution of consumer items at reasonable rates; the serving class if fails in offering honest service to the society, such a human society shall be deprived of its progress and welfare.
Ina nay case a person lacking in necessary merit should never be appointed for a particular office. This is most essential for the social well-being. Some of our politicians strongly condemn the caste system and strive to root it out all together. Let them know that, removing the head is not the remedy for the headache. By discarding this four fold division of the society, these rulers have created hundreds of classes to divide and ruin the society. This forcible disintegration has resulted in mistrust, rivalry, greed, duplicity, discrimination and unrest. Integration of the nation can be done only through unification of the society. In that case, there are two ethical divisions such as honest people and dishonest people; other two economical divisions are the poor people and the rich people. Any other further classification of the society by the politicians is most unscientific and destructive.
It is often said that “ the law makers are the law breakers “. It sis quite funny to note that most of these champions of reformation who hate the hereditary caste system try to engage all their children in the line of politics as they know well that, it is the only industry which bestows easy name, extensive fame and huge returns beyond measure. Let them correct themselves and act reasonably. It is often seen that, many politicians when ascend to the rank of the rulers often facilitate their well-wishers, relatives, friends and supporters to reap the highest benefit of the occasion, even without the required merit and eligibility. Thos who do not follow righteousness in their own lives lose the right of pointing towards others. A righteous person alone can spread righteousness in the society. It is often seen that, in the appointment of social, academic, political and other offices often dishonesty plays a role through favoritism, corruption, selfishness, nepotism, hegemony, haste, unscrupulousness etc.

The social problem of exploiting the poor children is a result of the erosion of the human values in the society, a s direct consequence of neglecting the spiritual aspect of human life. Spiritual awareness roots out the seed of wickedness and easily establishes peace, welfare and universal brotherhood with utmost grace and goodness. Instead of wasting millions and billions in fruitless programmes, our rulers should adopt the sense of spiritual wisdom to prevail upon the society. This shall make every citizen honest, responsible, wise and brave. For achieving this magnanimous result , all our ruling section should shed off their own wickedness, selfishness and duplicity. Righteous rulers alone can spread perfect righteousness in the society. They should stop criminalizing the politics, glorifying the culprits, supporting the hypocrites, favoring atheists and helping fanatics. All the righteous, noble and saintly people should be duly honored and requested to guide the society towards spiritual righteousness and to acquire devotional love to the Supreme Lord.

A human being needs to avail food, shelter, medicine, information, education, recreation and spiritual wisdom to lead a worthy and prosperous life on earth. A proper guidance towards providing these basic amenities should always exist in the society. The procedures of law, legislature, government, security, penal code etc are needed only to regulate the miscreants and punish the defaulters. They are of no primary concern to human life. Maha Bharata says that, in the beginning of Golden age, the human beings were so much righteous that , they never had any kind of government, kingdom, rulers, police, penal code or judiciary. All were mutually helping and protecting each other and striving for mass welfare, being actuated by eternal righteousness. This is the spirit of real democracy. India is the biggest democratic country of the world. If the national situation is analyzed, one may wonder how many citizens and politicians are aware of the duties, responsibilities and commitments of real democracy that may provide all the democratic guarantees to one billion Indians!

All of us should strive to spread nobility, honesty, sanctity and spiritual wisdom in the hearts of all the one billion citizens of our country. Although the task seems to stupendous, we should know that, “ where there is a will, there is a way”. Instead of wasting our time in selfish optimism and degenerative pessimism, we should adopt a realistic course of spiritual awareness by observing nobleness in our own lives and inspiring all others. This shall work like lighting a lamp in utter darkness. Each lamp can eradicate a considerable amount of darkness as well as succeed in lighting hundreds of other lamps. Simply by developing commercial, selfish, discriminative, insincere and defective attitudes our rulers can never uplift the society. Criminalisation, corruption, misguidance, injustice, riot, violence, mistrust, etc are often a net result of defective governance. If the rulers are lacking in patriotism, how can they teach honesty to the citizens ? All should adopt right kind of action by avoiding inaction and evil action. Similarly, proper knowledge should be cultivated by avoiding ignorance and perverted knowledge. If the educated people do not possess good conduct, they shall become clever devils to ruin the society, which is conveyed by the saying

Sakshara Vipareetatvey Rakshasa Bhaved Dhruvam
All should learn Honesty and Nobility in associating with holy Persons.
The meaning of being religious is to achieve the highest excellence is the worthy human qualities, attain self realization and God realization, and also to ensure eternal welfare of all the beings like men, women, animals, birds, trees, creepers etc. When we find that, some people in the name of religion engage in violence, terror, sabotage, looting and crimes to destroy innocent lives of human beings, we can imagine their devilish down fall to the hell of unrighteousness in the name of religion. This is an example of gross irreligion and misuse of religion. As it is said that , “Little learning is Dangerous”. Our politicians think that, religion is a “Pandora’s box” which should not be opened. By such an attitude, our ignorant politicians are indirectly encouraging the irreligious wickedness. If we think on logical grounds, the real purpose of religion is to bestow universal welfare of all the living beings through devotional service to the Supreme Lord. Just a beloved mother sometimes chastises her erring children for their real welfare , religion also sometimes chastises the ignorant people to achieve their reformation. A mother can never do any harm to her children , so also religion never destroys any living entities. True religion is eternal righteousness. Anything that is unrighteous is irreligion. Thos who perpetuate violence, crime, discrimination, butchery, intolerance, hatred and vengeance are gross irreligionists. It is most unfortunate that, in the name of religion, hundreds of devilish ideologies are committing crimes against humanity and thriving in this world, being patronized by wicked rulers, uncultured leaders and wicked brutes. All such inhuman and diabolical activities are fit to be terminated by the righteous rulers. The ruler of a country should look after all the citizens just as his own children and take care of everyone’s welfare by protecting them from all kinds of dangers and calamities. Unless the spiritual righteousness is established in the minds of all the younger generation, it is not possible to achieve real welfare of the society. Simply taking care of the secular aspects and disregarding spiritual values is nothing but a foolishness of decorating a dead body. Instead of solving any problems, this type of anti-spiritual attitude shall create hundreds of national problems to ruin the entire country. In Gita and Bhagavatham we learn about the super excellent qualities of spiritually enlightened persons. Due to the mere presence of such devotees of glorious character, all their associates and the entire human society can achieve total success and permanent well being of Human Life.

Genuine spiritual wisdom should be imparted to the young children from their very young age by the help of holy personalities. This process shall make their lives brilliant, blemish less and successful. Also it prevents their downfall under the influence of selfish materialism, mad atheism and diabolical fanaticism. Accepting the philosophical doctrines, only in words and not implementing them in practice, proves the immaturity and hypocrisy of the so called jnanis. It is not enough to merely accept the goodness as view of life. One should accept all the great teachings of the spiritual science as a complete way of life. Then alone the real benefit of divine wisdom shall be avoided by the human society.

Spiritual awareness is the rot of eternal righteousness. Neglecting the spiritual values overcomes the society with ignorance and unrighteousness. Unless all the citizens are trained to be honest, responsible, wise and brave by the help of spiritual inspiration, all the welfare activities of secularism are bound to fail miserably. The material affluence and academic excellence can really help the society, only when they remain absolutely allegiant to spiritual wisdom. Then alone our temporary earthly existence can bestow us permanent success. Godless secularism and atheistic learning are nothing but a curse for the society.

Now let us try to understand the higher ideals of the spiritual process. Among the human beings, the spiritualist is an wakened person, the materialist is a sleeping and dreaming person. A waking person alone can awaken others from their sleep. Those who do not associate themselves with an enlightened person can not understand about spiritualism, just as a person traveling on a boat cannot easily understand his own movement as well as the movement of other boats. Similarly, those who are subjected to the mundane relativity of nescience can not have any idea about the absolute situation of the pure spirit. The realized souls and the revealed scriptures alone can provide the information regarding the absolute reality. For the highest welfare of the humanity, Lord Sri Chaitanya advised to chant the divine holy names in holy company by acquiring the four fold merits such as

1. Humbler than a blade of grass

2. Forbearing like a patient tree

3. Not seeking any respect for oneself

4. giving due respect to one and all

A devotee first of all possess all the best of the human qualities and yet should not have any vanity for the same. He should know himself humbler than a blade of grass. The second quality is to have utmost patience in all the situations, like a benevolent tree. The tree which gives its all belongings to the sustenance of the life on earth, never demands anything in return. Even by tolerating rain, hot sun, storm etc the tree protects others by providing shade and shelter. Even a stone-thrower is rewarded with sweet fruits ! It never asks even a glass of water when dying due to dry spell. It silently tolerates all the tortures inflicted by animals and men. A devotee should be free from all kinds of envy and retaliation like a silent tree and protect and help everyone just as a tree does. He should never cause any kind of anxiety to others and feel happiness at the welfare of others. The third quality is to remain free the desire for name and fame. Egoistic people always covet name and fame, even without having nay kind of greatness. Those who are really great never run after publicity. The fourth merit is to offer due respect to all the living beings, knowing the presence of God in the hearts of one and all. When every one is the progeny of the God, How can you commit harm to them ? Hence, the slaughterers and meat eaters have no eligibility to chant the Divine Names. These four fold merits mentioned above are capable of spreading universal welfare and eternal well being for all the living entities, when sincerely followed while chanting the Divine Names.
