Is there any connections between King Henry 8th rejecting the authority of the Catholic Church, and effectively setting himself up as a supreme authority of his own church and him later becoming a killer of his wives and a killer of many others , also due to the King’s degrading consciousness and later Cromwell setting up effectively the beginnings of the people ruling themselves that led to immoral exploitative entrepreneurs travelling all over the world conducting thievery and murderous campaign’s, during the beginnings of the industrial revolution , so this path that began from the kings rejecting spiritual authority and ended with the current world situation , and take a good look at all things , it’s bad , from conglomerate monopolies economics , no real free market economics,  a gambling and infiltrated stocks , commodities and currencies market,  scientific materialism that claim to represent truth in sciences along with the Darwinians , with a world so industrialised and so connected to the WWW but so disconnected to the hearts and feelings of others , world governments that kill for metals and earths and oil ..did this all begin when Henry rejected spiritual authority and set himself up as his own authority, did that take the world to where it is today , the British empire began where others followed , when spiritual consciousness is rejected nothing good comes about , rather a slow and steady course to degradation, that’s what we see , hypocrisy everywhere, no truth and the real intelligensia are ignored and some of them corrupted, and merged into the system .

The Vedic way is that the theological scholars and pure representatives of Divinity do not have any direct connections to governance or their compliance systems nor do they assume they are knowledgeable in all topic , rather they rely on the Vipras the scholars in many many feilds, and they rely on the administrative classes and the head of state to carry out duties properly , the functions of the honest and pure hearted is to see to it no cheating or duplicitous behavior is found within governance or scholarly circles , a person who lives by truth and who is forever dedicated to the absolute truth instinctively knows truth and as well the symptoms of crooked consciousness in all its various forms.
.
Lord Krishna in His Bhagavad Gita tells of the māyayā apahṛta-jñāna ….the crooked so-called intelligentsia.

Regarding religion and theological governance interacting with the administration head and the general people , Krishna in His Bhagavad Gita makes if clear, standards for social and spiritual mobility of everyone should be there , but different strokes for different folks and only the best of the intelligentsia know of the practicalities.
Thus the Vedas and Puranas contains progressive steps for all classes , but no question of a Liberal free for all of ” if it feels good do it ” that does not apply in any walk of life including economics.
Krishna says in Gita , if you cannot become a spontaneous lover of God then practice the rules and regulations, if you cannot do that then aquire philisophical knowledge if you cannot do that do some pious charitable activities, just do good somewhere, but don’t go against the principles of good and pious, and the Vedas indicates if you must act with impious and ulterior and harmful ways , do it under certain conditions and rules .
Thus the very very broad Vedas must be understood and never replaced by unthinking libertines who are clueless of consciousness development and who do the greatest harm , as much or more that a fanatical religious doctrine follower , who is clueless in application.
