Guest guest Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 The present state of affairs is due to people losing faith in themselves and in the sastras (scriptures). Those who claim to have faith do not conduct themselves according to the scriptures and nourish them. Consequently, goodness and good habits have gone out of the world and wicked habits and degradation has gained the upper hand. This is incorrect and needs transformation. A child may refuse to swallow a pill when it is in the bed, suffering from fever. It may clamour for a plantain, instead of a pill. Do you know what to do at that time? Do not omit the pill. Insert the pill inside the plantain and offer it to the child to be swallowed. It's desire is satisfied. The fever too, comes down. The fundamental has not been discarded. It has remained unchanged. Only the method of administering it has been modified. So too, in the mi dst of crazy habits and behaviors, fundamental scriptures must be presented in a way it is easy to absorb; it must be practised, understood, experienced and enjoyed.
