| THE HINDU RENAISSANCE AT A TURNING POINT | |
| Such
a new approach to Vedic knowledge cannot be done in a medieval way
but must be given a modern relevance and practical value. New Vedic
schools should create a new breed of scientists, doctors,
therapists, sociologists, psychologists, and historians. These new
Vedic teachers will have an important place in societies all over
the world in the coming global age.
Naturally such institutions require profound thought. They cannot be produced by mere slogans, mass techniques, or personal charisma. It also requires a concerted effort by Hindus, not each group doing its own thing to establish them. Such institutions need not be initially huge, however. They need not require massive investments or laborious planning. They can start off with fifty or a hundred students and grow organically by the natural interest they instill in people. This is the new form of Hinduism required for the coming century, for which the earlier Hindu renaissance was a prelude. For India to awaken and flourish it must bring out its Vedic spirit in action. This is a way of knowledge and spiritual practice. It is not a new religion, but a timeless path of inquiry into truth. For this Vedic approach to be reemerge everything must be questioned, including all the religions and sciences of the world. Vedic science must once more become the main emphasis of study and practice, not merely as a religious doctrine but as a key to universal knowledge. |
