Solution for corruption

The over attachment to worldly bonds is the source of sin. Every human being exists in this stage of over attachment to world. Pravrutti is the reduction of this over attachment so that limited proper attachment to the worldly bonds is reached there by the balance of this society is achieved. Over attachment to worldly bonds is injustice and pravrutti is the justice. Nivrutti is total detachment from these worldly bonds so that total attachment to God results. The human being is inherently associated with the characteristic of attachment to either world or God. As the reduction of the attachment to the worldly bonds proceeds, simultaneously the attachment to God proceeds. If there is ten percent reduction in the attachment to worldly bonds, it means, there is ten percent attachment to God. Therefore, pravrutti does not oppose nivrutti. In fact, pravrutti is the middle stage between over attachment to world and over attachment to God. Without pravrutti, nivrutti is impossible.

Pravrutti is aiming at nivrutti only. Jaimini Sutras deal with pravrutti and Brahma Sutras deal with nivrutti. Ramanuja explained the meaning of the word Atha, which is the first word of the first Brahma Sutra, like this: you must start nivrutti after pravrutti only. Without reaching pravrutti, the middle stage, nivrutti, the final stage cannot be reached. This is logically correct. Shankara told that if the human being has already reached nivrutti in the previous birth, in this birth it can straightly start from nivrutti without going back to pravrutti again. Hence, there is no contradiction between Ramanuja and Shankara in the context of the meaning of the first word of the first Brahma Sutra.

Basis of nivrutti is the acceptance of existence of God. If the existence of God itself is not accepted, pravrutti becomes meaningless and unstable. Social justice cannot be maintained if the existence of God is not accepted. If God does not exist, what is the use of reducing the over attachment to this world? If you say that the over attachment to worldly bonds leads to sin and injustice, which in turn disturb the balance of society, nobody understands the overall effect of it. In such case, everybody wants that all other human beings should follow pravrutti to maintain the balance of the society and individually commits sins. This becomes the famous story that everybody should pour a cup of milk in the empty tank kept by the king so that everybody can pour a cup of water, which cannot be detected. Everybody wants the social justice and balance of society, but at the same time wants his or her over attachment result in the sin, to proceed in undetectable way. You cannot control every human being through the law of court and the police department. The reason is that every individual working in any department is with the same psychology. Today, you are hearing the news that an honorable judge of the honorable court has taken huge bribe to protect the injustice! Every employee in every department is influenced by the corruption. The employee may belong to government or administration or parliament or assembly or even judiciary system. Very few only exist, who follow justice due to fear of God.

It is very difficult if you say that an atheist can also remain pure. The reason is that one day or other, the atheist will think about the ultimate in following justice. In his mind, certainly, the coming question will be “what is the ultimate benefit for me if i follow the justice and what is the ultimate loss to me if i do injustice in an undetectable way?” He will think that since God is absent, there is none to reward him for following the justice and there is none to punish him for doing the injustice in hidden way. If the injustice is not done in the hidden way, there may be punishment in this world by the court of law. If you can escape the punishment here by doing the injustice in talented hidden way, there is materialistic benefit that promotes your enjoyment in this world. The final conclusion will be to do sin in undetectable way so that you can escape the ultimate punishment here and at the same time enjoy the materialistic benefit of the sin in this world. You can propagate the justice through your speech everywhere so that the social balance is maintained. If the social balance is not maintained, your enjoyment here also gets disturbed. Therefore, maintain the social balance to have your personnel enjoyment without any disturbance. Hence, go on influencing everybody through speech to follow justice. Thus, everybody wants to maintain the social balance with selfish motive only and not for the sake of God since God does not exist. Hence, atheism will lead to social chaos one day or other. In the case of theism, there is God to reward you for following the justice. Even if you do the sin in hidden way, the omniscient God will detect and punish you here or the upper world. The religion may be defective due to certain blind and foolish customs and traditions. But, the religion is far better than the atheism because the religion provides the golden theism to control the sin and maintain the social balance.

First Qualification of Judge is Divine Knowledge

The Veda says that the first qualification of the judge should be the divine knowledge (yea tatra brahmanaah…). Today, an advocate or the person having the legal knowledge is becoming judge. The advocate in his long practice argued for several unjust cases for the sake of payment and knows very well to support the injustice misinterpreting the law! Mere knowledge of the law cannot be the qualification of the judge. He should have the divine knowledge of the God and should fear to do injustice. The judge in any country having strong religion is not influenced by corruption due to fear of God. In any country having very strong religion, the judge is never corrupt. Of course, the wrong side of the religion should be left on. At the same time, its right side should be taken for the benefit of social balance. The divine knowledge should become part and parcel of the total education system so that every human being fears to do sin and follows justice to get reward from God. If this one good advice is implemented, the entire society will run on perfect justice and the social balance so that there is no need of police or court.

The idea of establishing a new controlling system like Lokpal is not correct because, the members of such controlling department are again with the same psychology. If the base is cleaned, there is no need of control in system. If the base is unclean, the dirt will enter the controlling system also. The difference between the ancient world and the modern world is at this basic level. In the ancient world, the entire education system is only spiritual knowledge. The professional education was given very little importance since very little wealth is sufficient to serve the basic needs of the human beings. In the present modern world, the spiritual knowledge disappeared and the entire education system is only at professional level. As the result, everybody concentrates on the professional knowledge to earn more and more even through sins forgetting the concept of God, who is the supreme controller. As a result, the social balance is lost and this results in the anger of God by which the natural environmental balance is also lost, which will lead to global destruction in a very short time. The urgent action needed is the revival of divine knowledge, which is the real remedy to stop the global destruction in future.
