It's a new age

"It's a new age and we can come up with
our own terminology now."

I heard this statement from a person claiming to be a sadhu and must admit I felt great pain in my heart. Why you ask ? because the position of Guru and disciple depends on hearing, understanding (by submissive inquiry and service) then speaking to others who have a genuine interest in you and the knowledge you possess. If they're not serious then don't speak, otherwise it's like giving milk to a serpent and will only feed their anti-theistic mentality. Followers of the Vedic way of life do not manufacture new terms for ageless Tattvas. It would be like calling a Samosa a Chapatti !

When genuine sadhus speak on these matters they (Vedic Tattvas) manifest a transcendentally sweet and uplifting quality . - AJD
