Politics and governments
Shapes public behavior in contemporary society

Social institutions have been very strong in Hindu society. Because the duty of the Hindu king was to protect the traditions and beliefs of the society and to keep everyone moving within their limits. This has been called 'Varnashram Dharma Pratipalan'. But after 15 August 1947, for the first time in India, the Hindus themselves created a system of governance that was indifferent to religion, which made the state the controller and ruler of all the activities, activities and Purusharth traditions of the society. In this state, no legal judicial power of the religious scriptures of Sanatan Dharma was recognized. Therefore, even the scholars of religious scriptures do not have any authorized power in the context of legal decisions and justice. Instead, Anglo-Christian laws and legal systems were used only the beliefs and systems were declared authorized and prescribed by law. These laws became the criterion for any activity of the society to be right or wrong, proper or improper, legal or unlawful. To ensure that public peace is not disturbed and the disturbance of Hindus is not widespread, the officials of Anglo-Christian law and law system, as per their wisdom and convenience, occasionally took cognizance or reference of religious scriptures or adjusted religious beliefs, but the legal power remained only with the institutions with Anglo-Christian beliefs and beliefs. Initially, for some years, even the enlightened Hindus did not pay attention to this reality for some reasons, but as time passes, these realities are coming to the fore. These can be easily understood with some examples.
Literature, music and the arts
This can be easily understood in the field of literature, music and arts. Earlier, there was a social tradition of classical music, singing and dancing activities and artistic practice were done by the respective talented artists at their own level, but in the society, they were organised and judged by the Mahajans or the wider society. Of course, the king and the royal class were also involved in this, but at the king's level, no such institutions were ever formed nor any policy was made that only a particular type of music or musician, dance or dancer and singing or singer will be given special patronage, but after 15 August 1947, policies started being made in these subjects and the main right to implement them was and is with those administrators, who are actually trained in law and order and governance. As a result, these administrators make clear discrimination in patronage either according to their interests or according to the departmental heads i.e. ministers. They have no hesitation in this matter of society. Over the years, the enthusiasm of the concerned departmental officers towards taking their own decisions in these subjects has increased.
The result is that only those talented people get respect and publicity in the society who have been honored at the level of government institutions and administration. Since the officers are not knowledgeable about these subjects, the basis of their decisions is not quality, but personal inclinations. This issue became more prominent in the field of literature when the communist-inclined leaders and officers almost monopolized the government. Communist and socialist writers, poets etc. started getting importance and publicity many times more than their merit and along with that honorarium, honour, awards etc. also started being given to them. A little bit was done to save the honour of democracy. People favouring other streams were also sought.
This situation became so widespread that now every party that comes to power considers it to be natural. It gives importance only to those writers, poets etc. who are of its own interest and are associated with its own organisation or party and only they are promoted through the media and only they are given positions, prestige, honours and awards etc. Generally, more talented Hindus never believe in European ideologies are not interested in being a member of any party. In such a situation they they remain neglected and anonymous or get little fame.
This situation is totally against the tradition of Hindu society, but now every party and its workers are enthusiastic about it. Mostly they take it as natural. They feel that till now Congress has promoted communists and leftists, so now we should promote our organization and people associated with our party. Such an environment has been created that this thing now seems natural to the concerned people, but the thing to be noted is that in this process, genuinely talented poets, writers etc. are usually ignored or there is mental pressure on them to join the ruling party. There is no problem in joining, but joining political organizations and parties demands a lot of time and energy and the talented people having special inclination towards education, arts or knowledge of scriptures are never able to devote much time and energy to these activities, because they do not have any inclination towards this. Only then they are able to achieve special expertise in their field.
This situation has become so widespread that it is now visible openly, but the important thing is that no important or influential person has considered it appropriate to even discuss this. It is assumed that this is natural, but this is the Hindu society getting moulded into Christian or Muslim mindset or Communist mindset.
Everyone knows that these three streams are intellectually very narrow and are extremely intolerant towards others. That is why in all these three streams, there are no words like 'sahriday', 'virtuous', 'rasik', 'samajik'. There are no words synonymous or equivalent to these in these streams. In their place, words like 'imaan laane wala', 'faithful' or 'committed' are popular there. Which clearly indicate one-sidedness and narrowness and publicly not only legitimize such one-sidedness and narrowness but also give it pride. It is clear that due to this, the noble and wide tradition of Hindu society will gradually disappear. The disciplines of knowledge, art and sadhana will also start being tightened in party camps and compartments. Which will only become the cause of their disintegration and disorder. Not only are there no people left in the political field who think about this, but it is a matter of concern and surprise that these subjects or these tendencies are not being discussed even in the fields of scriptures, education and art. Thus, without any public declaration and decision, Hindu society will gradually become and transform like Euro-Christian or Muhammadan or communist ideological groups.
This is becoming indifferent towards Sanatan Dharma and universal human values and truth and Rta. Which can lead to the extinction of the original nature of India. Therefore, in this matter, it is necessary to re-establish the behavior as per scriptures and the established justice system of Sanatan Dharma. It is the Rajdharma of a great ruler to take initiative in this.
