Vedic cultures , per say, were in one sense quite secular in their approach to societies , the intelligentsia knew of the journey of the souls , that meant differences in everyone’s approach to life and realisations .
An educational and sensible approach to all matters of religion was in operation because not everyone immediately wants to surrender to God , mixed consciousness of material attachment and entanglements are going to be the obvious result of many repeated births and deaths .
It was the responsibility of the government to oversee religion , making sure all religious practices were carried out properly , no speculations or ” liberalism ” could take place that could bring misleading philosophical deviation.
In todays world of so called ” democracies ” which have now been infiltrated by global oligarchs , and mass immigration due to exploitation and wars brought about by capitalism that’s out of control , and with no controlling intelligensia , only greater and greater problems will develop.
Ultimately democracy will fail because , a ” Christian ” state will never allow a Muslim majority or a” Muslim ” state would never allow a ” Christian majority and as we see in Israel the Muslims are a suppressed group and currently killed for trying to fight for their legitimate rights .
