Q. Is the spiritual tradition still relevant in our time?

It is relevant in all times. Where would our country be today without the spiritual tradition? For centuries, they have been the protectors of our entire culture – from Sanskrit and scriptures, to bharatanatyam and kalaachara, to ayurveda and siddha, to religion and spirituality, it is the legacy protected by a handful of these people.

As the Bhagavata says, the very existence of the earth is because of enlightened masters. They have protected these sciences and arts by pouring their lives into it. Almost everything that civilization possesses today, all that you enjoy in the name of culture, is their gift. Even in our century, they are responsible for preserving the learning in an untainted form and maintaining the continuity. That is equally important.

Suppression finds its own way out; sometimes, it’s funny and sometimes grave.
