Hindu Seer II

I thank Chinmaya for bringing the news to the group. Since the group always revels in religious discourses, it was the right platform, even if it was of radically different taste this time. Bitter?My letter:I am not surprised! Not at all--Remember how "Satya Sai Baba" fled the police several times and was accused ofchild sexual abuses....But he is still in the seat of esteem because of the irony that the judiciaryalso comprises folks who legitimize these frauds' statuses.And when Kavoor in his "Begone Godmen" challenged the spiritual gurus of theworld, none of them came forward to prove themselves.Shame that we have to wait for the legal systems to take action....and in the meantime these Con-men use the most fundamental concept to hypnotizethe masses: religion and god! And we innocents gulp down the sermons and startpreaching them as well and engage in advocating their languages and spreadingmessages. Instead of locating the issues that concern the hungry and thehomeless, we practice the luxury of religious discourses....Even a radical like Malcolm X paid for it too! By the time he discovered how thereligious were detached from the realities, he was swiftly eliminated by thegod-loving creatures. Little wonder we care to bother if the gurus practice whatthey preach...anyway, with such 'breaking news', its always better late than never...thanks, Chinmaya,Saswat
