POLITICO-SPIRITUAL RENDEZVOUS

We need to develop a dual system of education—formal and informal. Formal education can produce educated politicians, and that is good for our society, but we also need all members of society to be spiritualised. This goal cannot be achieved through formal education. We shall have to evolve an informal type of education whose teachers are spiritual gurus, and also ruhani murshid. These gurus and murshids can teach our present-day generation through interaction, discourses and dissemination of literature. Informal and formal education are both independent disciplines: any attempt at amalgamation cannot yield positive result. Each discipline can try to be helpful to the other, without interfering with the other’s systems. In a partial sense, we need spiritualised politicians and politicised spiritual persons. Both are important: each can support the other, but only on the condition that they strictly refrain from interference. Spiritual persons have much to share with others, and the same can be said of politicians. But presently, few of them carry out this task. The reason is that people generally adopt a complaining attitude towards others and if they try to share with others, they don’t know the difference between sharing and interference. If any of them want to share with the others, they must avoid complaining and must refrain from interference. Without following this course, no one can prove to be a useful member of society. o NOTICE Subscribers are requested to inform us about damaged copies and non-receipt of their copies, latest by 15th of every month, providing their full name and address.
