VEDIC SOCIAL SCIENCE : THE SPIRITUAL BASIS OF CULTURE
Though we may have advanced in terms of outer power and knowledge we have created a society that does not even recognize the validity of the spiritual goal at all. We acknowledge religion but not the true goal of the liberation of the Spirit as the real end of man. Hence our social order is spiritually naive and bound to create some calamity for itself in time by its lack of recognition of the real purpose of life. 

Until, following the principles of Manu or the true man, we return to a society whose pillar is the respect for spiritual and self-knowledge our world must be beset with conflict and contradiction and few will be able to arrive at any real or lasting happiness. 

The higher man, however, is one who realizes his unity with all humanity, one who understands the values and needs of all the levels of society. He helps each individual to pursue their own appropriate way in life and does not attempt to create a single standard for all. He provides a wide field of experience in which each can grow in his own way. Such were the ancient leaders of Vedic or Aryan society.
