>I will now describe some of the features of this age found in an ancient Hindu text, the Vişṇu Purāṇa, I will put in brackets what I consider to be the contemporary applications. >Outcastes and barbarians will be masters of the banks of the Indus, Darvika, the Chandrabhaga and Kashmir. These will all be contemporary rulers [of this age] reigning over the earth: kings [rulers] of violent temper . . . They will seize upon the property of their subjects; they will be of limited power and will for the most part rapidly rise and fall; their lives will be short, their desires insatiable, and they will display but little piety. The people of various countries intermingling with them will follow their example. . . . The prevailing caste will be the Shudra. . . Vaisyas will abandon agriculture and commerce and gain a livelihood by servitude or the exercise of mechanical arts [proletarization and industrialization] . . . Kshyatrias instead of protecting will plunder their subjects: and under the pretext of levying customs will rob merchants of their property [crisis of capitalism and of private property; socialization, nationalization, and communism] . . . Wealth [inner] and piety [following one’s dharma] will decrease day by day until the whole world will be wholly depraved. Then property alone will confer rank [the quantity of dollars—economic classes]; wealth [material] will be the only source of devotion; passion will be the sole bond of union between the sexes; falsehood will be the only means of success in litigation. . . .Earth will be venerated but for its mineral treasures [unscrupulous exploitation of the soil, demise of the cult of the earth] . . .BrahmanicaI clothes will constitute a Brahman . . . weakness will be the cause of dependence [cowardice, death of fides and honor in the modern political forms] . . . simple ablution [devoid of the power of the true rite] will be purification [can there really be anything more in the alleged salvation procured by the Christian sacraments?] . . . In the Kali age men corrupted by unbelievers . . . will say: “Of what authority are the Vedas? what are gods or Brāhmans? . . . ” Observance of caste, order and institutes [traditional] will not prevail in the Kali age. Marriages in this age will not be comformable to the ritual, nor will the rules that connect the spiritual preceptor and his disciple be in force. . . . A regenerated man will be initiated in any way whatever [democracy applied to the spiritual plane] and such acts of penance as may be performed will be unattended by any results [this refers to a “humanistic” and conformist religion] . . . all orders of life will be common alike to all persons . . . . He who gives away much money will be the master of men and family descent will no longer be a title of supremacy [the end of traditional nobility, advent of bourgeoisie, plutocracy]. . . . Men will fix their desires upon riches, even though dishonestly acquired. . . . Men of all degrees will conceit themselves to be equal with Brahmans [the prevarication and presumption of the intellectuals and modern culture]. . . The people will be almost always in dread of dearth and apprehensive of scarcity; and will hence ever be watching the appearances of the sky [the meaning of the religious and superstitious residues typical of modern masses]. . . . The women will pay no attention to the commands of their hus- bands or parents. . . . They will be selfish, abject and slatternly; they will be scolds and liars; they will be indecent and immoral in their conduct and will ever attach themselves to dissolute men.... Men having deviated into heresy, iniquity will flourish, and the duration of life will therefore decrease.

why spirituality doesn't work for some people

Why Spirituality "Doesn't Work" for Many People These days many people are T turning to spirituality, but after some time, they all complain that it is not working. Why is that? One of the main reasons is that they don't recognise that spirituality is a lifestyle-it's a way of living. You can't just do some meditation or some newage practice for half an hour, morning and evening, live a hedonistic lifestyle, and expect spiritual growth. Just like you can't go to the gym three days a week and expect good health and a fit body when you're not getting enough sleep or rest, your lifestyle is sedentary, and the diet involves a lot of junk food, so, too, with spirituality. If you are not living with some ethical values and psychological growth, how do you expect the spiritual practices to work? The Foundation: Psychological Maturity Psychological growth is important. If I have lost someone near and dear and I have not managed that grief, I can't expect a spiritual practice to heal me from that grief. The spiritual practice will work only if I have done some basic psychological work. Psychological maturity is the basis for spiritual growth. So if the foundation is weak, the edifice of spirituality cannot be built over time. Most people have grief, guilt, stress or some emotional issues, and they expect some practice to take care of it. Some temporary stress relief is possible. But if 18 hours a day you are stressed out, how do you expect a half-hour practice to completely remove the effects of those 18 hours? One has to align with the right attitudes and a moderate lifestyle to handle stress on a regular basis. Only then will the spiritual practices work. To sum it up: spiritual growth can happen only if I am a mature being. That is, if I can think clearly, feel deeply, and act decisively. This competency and growth can be enhanced with my spiritual disciplines and practices. But if the base is not there, no amount of practice will work. https://t.me/sanataneee
