Why is there so much negative thinking about spiritual life among Hindus?
I think the most knowledgeable people nowadays are the commuters of buses and trains. They can talk freely about any topic in the world and say it with such confidence that one cannot imagine the extent of their knowledge. We know that Maha Kumbh is held this year and this period comes after 144 years. Every time the Kumbh Mela is organized, a large crowd of monks is seen and their unique nature attracts people a lot, this time too was no exception. Currently there is a lot of discussion about two people, firstly a woman who is very beautiful and educated, she once lived a simple life and can be said to live a modern life, but now she became monk and came for the Kumbh Mela, that is, she has accepted Sanyas ( Spiritual Life )for about two years. There is a lot of discussion about that woman, wise people say how a woman so beautiful can come this way. In fact, the common people’s expectation is that beautiful women can only work anywhere, make reels or make adult movies, but if they do something good, they object. Another person being discussed passed ITI and was in other professions for some time and then he entered the spiritual world. This person said an important thing that eventually every human being has to come in this world, what is the problem if I come a few days earlier? In fact, the civilized people of our country think that spirituality means something bad, in a way, their idea is that only when a person reaches the near of death in old age can they come to this world and not before that. In fact, because of the lack of spiritual education among the people of our country, such thoughts grow in their heads. According to them, no beautiful woman or educated person can enter the spiritual world because it is a sin or injustice. Lord Krishna said that he never guides anyone, he gives consciousness or knowledge in people, according to that knowledge, people have to make their decision, which path they choose for themselves in life. If a person thinks that he will serve the people of the family staying at home, even if he is on the path of religion, also leaving the family and going to the world of spirituality falls within the rules of God, there is no mistake between the two. It depends a lot on your previous birth deeds which path you choose but God has not given you any specific rule that you have to choose that path only. But if someone chooses the spiritual world then you have no right to criticize him.
