The benefits of an industrial and technological world and its downfalls.
From a Vedic perspective, one might not see any benefits of our modern world with what’s clearly witnessed as increased materialism and exploitation , with wealth for the very few and poverty for the rest internationally.
Initially, the industrial revolution was hailed as a great wonder for mankind , it made claims of alleviating poverty and civilising mankind who were engrossed in nature living lives not much more further progressed than the proverbial Darwinian caveman . It has progressed to the current technological ages of fast internet communication , perhaps some good could be seen if it were not tainted by its exploitative motives and methods , which has at its heart greed that is stoking conflicts, sadly it appears to have no real sharing concepts .
Instead of sharing in technological innovations that could well bring benefits to everyone in every country of the world , it instead is hampered by fake leaders with little sense of decency and a business model of ” intoxicated greed ” . There is no foresight by any of them or even a wish to carefully balance the needs of man , all creatures, and the environments we all need for healthy good living . Thus, the whole vision has gotten of hand and is heading for disaster, and no one knows how to stop it .
Actually, there are great benefits to be had to opening up the world where cultures are shared, and comparisons can be seen in all aspects of each countries education systems and cultures . Currently, persons are being fooled and exploited by a so-called intelligensia , while the real intelligensia are silenced . Sharing cultures can be highly beneficial. For instance, the perverted caste systems in India or the class systems of the English empire are now clearly seen to be bias, after all you are what you are , not only the family you are born into . Mass education has helped everyone in many ways and should be in place for everyone, promoting natural social mobility.
So , there are benefits and downfalls of modern living , but the two can be harmonized with a balanced and fair approach .That is easily achieved when the genuine and sensitive intelligentsia influence affairs of state .The original purpose of the Vedas is clear , matters of scientific studies , sociology , balanced economics , justice, philosophical, and religious progression are essential and should always be ongoing and progressive and systematically taught .
Everyone is searching after good leadership and hankering for a just society with mature outlooks to all matters of science and religion and matters of political affairs . The Vedas have much to offer , and shortly , a new Renaissance period will begin , actually, it’s began , education of body , mind, and consciousness that is so essential and that everyone needs and will be satisfied with.
