Religion and Politics Should not be Mixed

By Satyanarayana Dasa: Many times I read that religion and politics should be kept separate. They should not be mixed. Here in India it is a common feeling of the educated gentry.

There have been examples of such oppression and atrocities in the past where a ruling party crushed or ostracized members of a religion not followed by them.

You have to also know that other people also have deficiencies as I have – they are not perfected beings so they cannot function exactly as I want them to. If we can keep these things in mind then we can remain more tolerant and composed, even in situations we can’t control.
