In English
In the world today, there are several kinds of powers which we see. All power that we generally come across is the worldly power, material power and the power connected with politics. But of all types of powers, the most powerful one is the political strength, which is the strength to be acquired by ruling a country. In that context, we are apt to think that dharmic strength or spiritual strength is not good enough. Students, for us to think that political power, power based upon politics is even stronger than the adhyatmic strength or the dharmic strength is not correct. We should have the attitude that all these worldly types of powers are derived from divine strength. The political powers can cause changes only on one’s body. But the spiritual and the dharmic powers can transform and will have an effect on one’s mind. Without transformation of mind, any change in the body is not sufficient. The change of mind today is very necessary. The political power is like the bush coat which you wear on yourself. You may wear the bush coat today, and you may take it off tomorrow.
