Every
culture and every society had their ups and downs. It is the ability of the community
to withstand those pressures of natural social evolution that determines the strength
of the faith and culture. Like all other religious faiths and cultural and social
movements, Hindu community also had problems. We should analyze these problems
in the perspective of a world community and an understanding of the strength and
weakness of the society at large. When every one is living in a glass house, we
should not try to throw stones at each other but learn to respect everyone's faith
and understand the rights of others to their beliefs and improve our own faith
to live with them.

| When
we perform our actions, we should perform them as an offering to the Divine and
keep our expectations to that of an offering of Divine gift and accept them as
it is. We have to live with the nature and keep our desires and attachment within
the proper Dharma of the Universe. The expectations, desire, lust, attachment
and greed with longing for material prosperity and bodily pleasures which are
Artha and Kama without the proper Dharma leads to pain and suffering. The path
of Dharma with proper karma and bhakthi will lead to a life of happiness and eternal
bliss. So, we should perform our work only as a service with devotion and offering
to God. | |
