DEPTH KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY

DEPTH KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY 

I frequently find Hindu 🕉 preachers ignorant of the Sanatan Dharma, although, they are very intent on propagating the dharma. Now those that are being decried as secular liberals, leftist atheists, they are more literate than these Hindu preachers. They are more effective in their criticism of Hinduism which is based on their objective study. The counter to their critique of Hinduism can only be provided by erudite scholars of Hinduism but in the public fora they are few and far between. Those that abound are deficient in knowledge and in character-strength and are merely commercially and politically motivated. This is an unfortunate situation as it lays Hinduism at the mercy of these ignoramuses, often charlatans. Thankfully we have the Ramakrishna Mission to present the true picture of Hinduism before the world but the damage caused by these pseudopreachers is, nonetheless, not insignificant. Moreover, these YouTubers who are vociferous supporters of Hindu 🕉 resurgence -- and rightly so, for it is the need of the hour, the imperative of the Age, --, they do not lead spiritual lives whatsoever. They do not do their daily rounds of chanting or meditation, do not lead pure and holy lives and are content only in being denominational Hindus with a vengeance with their sole objective being political and commercial gain. This is a cancerous development in the body politic of the Hindus 🕉 and is eating into its vitals despite pious protestations to the contrary. This must be checked if the message of the Sanatan Dharma is to proliferate and permeate the world.
