Mere preaching the Vedanta in a goody-goody way in the West and avoiding the harsh realities of the political scene in the world all the while will not do mankind much good. What is needed is a robust propagation of the message, a facing up to the challenges that confront humanity in the intellectual domain pertaining to spirituality and not conveniently shying away from it in a cowardly manner quoting institutional principles which bar the way, and taking the lead in lighting up the path for depraved humanity that civilisation may survive the present anarchy. Spreading the spiritual light in great haste and with deep love for all is the need of the hour and this requires a zeal that few possess but that which must now be the common possession of all who profess in God's name what they to humanity preach. Evil in the name of archaic arbitration of faith, absolute assumptions beyond rational discourse or debate must be met with collective pulsations of love from millions that will in their combined might defeat the perfidious purpose of the evil doers. The intellectual discourse must be on and discussions and debates in a civilised manner undertaken to combat the power of reverse propaganda that seeks to take the world ages backward way in the medieval dark ages of tribal cults and practices totally unsuited to the requirements of modern times.
