So, will the Parliament be in a monastery or temple in the future course of time in this world’s largest democracy?
Or will the Parliament now become a religious temple, not a temple of our Incredible democracy?

In this era of the current BJP government, the country has absolutely taken the path of Hindutva forgetting the glory of secularism. Now the Nation depends more on Ram rather then following the laws of land. In the Constitution, everyone has been given the freedom to choose their own religion and to practice the holy worship according to their religions. But to a democratic Country like India ,the country’s largest political party is at the forefront of making ‘Ram Rajya’ by passing the ethos and ethics of our deep rooted democracy.
In some of our past Elections leaving the issue of development, religion and Hindutva were the major weapons of victory. It is quite unbelievable and impossible to talk about religion without naming saints and monks. India has been a country of saints since it’s very beginning which can not avoidable also. Whether it is about religious city KASHI or the city of Monks, MAHRASTRA.

In the glorious past and incredible History, many great saints and Monks were born on the holy land of India and taught all to follow the path of public welfare and religion. There are various religious gurus, monasteries, etc. in the country whose lakhs are devotees and followers even present Today. It is not hidden to any one of this nation in regard to the deep influence of religious Saint and Monk’s in current day’s Political Battle fields in India. During the days of Elections our Mighty Leaders even don’t at all forget to have blessings of country’s Top Religious Preachers and Teachers. For the sake of few votes they never distinguish between a True Saint and even dreaded criminals like ASHARAM and RAM RAHIM (Now behind the bar in Criminal cases).

But interestingly and astonishingly these saints and Monks have also changed dramatically. Now they intend to come into active politics to enjoy the taste of Political Power. By embracing the stairs of religion and faith, the dream of these saints has now become a doctrine not to salvation but to reach the height of politics. Now the saffron color is getting mixed with the color of Khadi. Recently the SHIVRAJ SARKAAR OF Madhya Pradesh has gifted status of Minister of States to as many as Five saints of the state. These Monks will be renounced RAJ YOGA leaving the simple life styles of Saints for ever in their lives. And also will taste the cream of power. All of them shall be provided the each and every facility which is meant for a Minister. This decision of Shivraj Sigh Chauhan also is being criticized every where across India.

According to reports, these five saints have been given the post of minister for suppressing the scam in the project of protection of Narmada river, or to say that instead of suppressing the scam, Saints have been gifted these political posts.

The president of the Akhara Parishad, Mahant Narendra Giri told the media, “If any saint has to serve the society through the protection of the river Narmada or if there is a scandal in this regard to be unearthed, then why does he refuse to do so?”
But what kind of nature is it that after getting the status of the Ministers of the State, the respected saints are saying that there is no scam and everything is right and absolute. With a Simultaneous accent, he even urged not to Blackmail these Holy saints in this way.

This passion of power of our holy saints is not mere confined to the state of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Karnatak also has now come to this line. Lakshmivara Tirtha is the abbot of ancient Krishna Math of Uduppi who also has declared his inner intention to contest election as if an experienced Political Leader for which he put forward his demand of Ticket from BJP. In this row of our Monk’s desire to be in the Political Power corridor, along with BJP, Indian National Congress also in deep trouble.

Laxmivara tirtha ji is not like a common saint. He is completely enjoying his saintliness. Apart from politics, Baba ji is also fond of with music and running expensive carriage along with heavy engine bullet bike for his adventure. Baba Ji now a day looks so much interested in joining politics that he even does not intend to wait for BJP High command’s green signal for his ticket.

He also looks ready to fight the coming election in Karnatak as an independent one. It is believed that the Human Being who can able to control his Five senses and this Physical world which is not tempted by worldly things is called a monk or a saint. Every one of us knows it very well about the rubber who turned as SAINT VALMIKI but now the time has changed and reversed as the sages departed from God’s blessings of Salvation and are approaching towards Political Power Corridor for their vested interest.
