The word is losing its meaning
Only the common man can rise to the occasion and change the system. We need a revolution again to make our planet and land a 'Vasudhava Kutumbakam'. A revolt against the system is badly needed. Hopefully, it will materialise sooner than later

PEOPLE SAY that they are proud to be Hindus but many don’t even know its real meaning. Hindu is not just a word; it stands for a complete human being, who has developed in all respects. And when we talk of Hinduism we actually mean the complete development of a human being. The development is based not only on Vedic science but our own self.  In this era of religious war, we, the people, must awaken ourselves to the truth that 'Hinduism' or 'Sanatana Dharm', is not only for Hindus.  It’s a way open to every human being to lead a good life. These days, many people participate in Satsangs and visit many Gurujis. They hear them preach and begin to deify them. These people just manipulate them. Here I am not singling out any religion because it is common to all religions. Instead of helping the people hear the voice of their own soul, they divert them spiritually and literally brainwash them. 

We the people should not only raise our voice against such elements of society but also stop indulging in such activities. These activities give rise to problems in colleges, societies and at the national level too. Why, today we battle against our own brothers, just because they belong to another religion? Even as we attach so much of importance to religion, our great political leaders exploit this sensitive issue. As a result, instead of progress, what we witness today is the opposite of progress. That day is not far off when we, the people, will become puppets in the hands of our leaders. 

Only the common man can rise to the occasion and change the system. We need a revolution again to make our planet and land a 'Vasudhava Kutumbakam'. A revolt against the system is badly needed.

I don't agree with you that all Gurus are bad. Some are bad and some are good. I have met very good Gurus too. One thing is very clear. The world is becoming very very materialistic and spiritually bankrupt. Politicians are steering the society into a disaster. The society has lost its direction and purpose. I think true Gurus are needed to guide the society back into the proper path.
