Rajdeep sar-nahi-ay's CNN-IBN is trying hard to drive an intellectual circus that Gurus and Saints should not interfere with Politics.
One of gem, below the belt reply:
Should Gurus and Babas lead political campaigns?
If an economist and lawyer by profession can be in politics and even without being elected by people can become the prime minister, then any indian, be it a spiritual guru or yoga teacher can lead political campaign and fight against corruption. It is the constitutional right of every indian to be in politics.
Very well said. A tight slap on face of Rajdeep Sar-dey-sai.
These western english educated puppets like Sardesai & Company, are blindly copying and parroting ideas from West, without applying their own brains. They have forgotten that Bharat was famous for its culture of Saints and yogis playing active roles as advisors to Kings. Their knowledge of morals, Dharma and boundaries of politics was one of the finest.
In today's Indian system, noone is asking for a Yogi to fight election and sit in PM chair. But, carrying campaigns and acting as outside consultant to the King(Government) is not a bad idea. So, let's stop all this monkey circus around why Ramdev shouldn't advise Government on this or that.
One better way to explain our great ancient model to this westernised morons is, present them an analogy of similar system. Well I found one, which West has copied from Asian history. Remember Darth Vador? Phantom? I forgot the sci-fi movie name but in that movie, there was a tiny, short
religious/Spiritual character(master), and his job was to train future leader of the Darth Kingdom. And once the young leader sits on chair and takes responsibility, that master sits by him so that time to time, the young leader can revert to him for advice on 'Critical' matters. But in day-to-day functions, master doesn't play a role because his subject(leader) is trained enough to handle situations and master encourages him to apply his own skills and guides him when he makes mistakes.
Now isn't that our idea originally. West copied it. ******** copy-cats.
