I have been thinking recently about our state of temples. They have changed their forms from being cultural and binding factors to just business centres. mostly people who are visiting the temples are doing mechanical things. how can we revive the temples as discussion forums for arts, culture, social responsibilities from being just "transactional" in nature. there are satsangas being organized in the temples, but they just follow the bhakthi movement. how can we revive usage of sanskrit, learning of vedas, and then to create a more responsible generation than ours? ideas are welcome...
The article is a refreshing read, however the last paragraph suggests aryan invasion?
ReplyDeleteA Vedic infusion, not an invasion.
ReplyDeleteso which people infused with whom?
ReplyDeleteInfluence was both ways. I am hoping to cover more of this in the next post.
ReplyDeleteAnd, at that point one would realize that life could have been lived better if the truth about it and its purpose were known in the beginning.
ReplyDeleteThis write-up kind of inspires the readers to read the Upanishads.
