| On
the second count, Hindus must learn to project a united front on a
social level and reclaim the greater field of Hindu Dharma that
covers all aspects of life and culture and was not merely confined
to the temple or the ashram. They must not only reform Hindu society
but use the great yogic and Dharmic principles of their tradition to
help reform the world today that is descending into a quagmire of
either sensate materialism on one hand, or dogmatic religious
fundamentalism on the other. In this regard Hindus need to
understand why they have become divided and are failing to meet
current challenges. They must project a new effort to promote Hindu
Dharma as a whole and not be content merely to support their
particular sect or local tradition, however great that may be.
Clearly Hindus in old India did these
things quite well, developing critiques of all existing systems of
philosophy and religion as well as establishing firm principles of
social harmony.
