Does Devi Varna Ashram mean playing the currupted system and benefiting from it ,does it mean a tollerance of centralised financial institutions, global monopolies, exploitation and unfair trade deals , along with wars and killing for minerals and precious earth .I suggest not, integrity, morals , ethics , fair play and personal and collective accountability is the Vedic way.
The monks of Iona developed problems in their interactions within societal affairs, Vedic societies should keep their heads switched on and know their priorities and where societal affairs are supposed to head for everyone’s spiritual and social mobility, its not all for one and none for all .

AC Bhaktivedanta Swami says .

” Sādhu who is always engaged in the service of the Lord, he is sādhu, bhakta. And śāstra. Śāstra means description of the activities of the sādhu and Bhagavān. Just like Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. We are reading the story of Ajāmila. He became a sādhu; therefore his description of his life is inserted here. Prahlāda Mahārāja a sādhu; Dhruva Mahārāja, a sādhu; Ambarīṣa Mahārāja, a sādhu.

Formerly, the kings were all sādhus, rājarṣi. Just like in the Bhagavad-gītā you have heard, imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ [Bg. 4.2]. Formerly, the kings were so exalted, and they were so nice that they were. Although they were sitting on the throne, they were dealing in politics, still, they were sādhu, just like ṛṣi. There are many instances.”

The Vedic way is to have the influences of the Sadhus , not the acceptance of the ways of the demons , The International society for Krishna Consciousness,  is permeating the world and in time the saints therein will be advising the politicians ,  and the leaders of societies will be devotionally inclined . As such , the Vedic understanding of fair and progressive play for all the worlds citizens will return within the world.  The self-evident truth of the equality of all beings before God will be inacted,  there will be no tollerance of harm to any living beings.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has set this inevitable course,  the intelligentsia are building and rising, and people will listen , nothing can stop it .
