In Kaliyuga, the game has changed! Many so-called masters are promoting their students not based on merit, spirituality, or dedication, but on how much publicity these students can generate for their masters and organizations. The more publicity, the more prominence. Forget Dharma, Nyaya, Neeti, and Satyaâthose are ancient relics in this new spiritual marketplace.
These "top performers" who can bypass any rules are hailed as the shining stars. Mistakes? What mistakes? When youâre raking in followers and likes, your slate is magically wiped clean. I've even heard of a case where someone falsely claimed their masterâs teachings reached millions on social media. Sounds familiar, right? Publicity is the new mantra, like TV TRP ratings and the indirect revenue they generate. This has become the twisted success metric for many organizations masquerading as non-profits.
Meanwhile, the sincere, hardworking studentsâblissfully unaware of these cunning tacticsâget zero recognition. They are trapped in an endless cycle of non-achievements and dissatisfaction, their lives projected as worthless. Theyâre made to believe they are sinners, while the real sinners laugh all the way to the bank. The ground truth? Money and publicity are the real deities in this twisted world đ
Case in Point:
One student reportedly helped inflate their masterâs social media reach to millions, earning VIP status within the organization. Meanwhile, another student, who spent years in genuine meditation and service, was relegated to the shadows. The irony is almost laughable if it weren't so tragic.
Real-Life Satire:
Attend any of these modern spiritual gatherings, and you'll find the "chosen ones" flaunting their VIP passes, getting preferential treatment, while the true seekers sit at the back, unnoticed. The gurus, perched on thrones made of money, preach about humility and non-attachment. Oh, the irony!
Your Guide to Becoming a 'Top Student':
1. Master Social Media: Forget the scriptures; become a wizard of Instagram and TikTok.
2. Networking Over Meditation: Spend less time in silent reflection and more time at networking events.
3. Publicity Stunts: The crazier, the better. Remember, controversy equals clicks!
4. Donate Generously: Make sure your contributions are well-publicized.
Donât be fooled, folks. Behind the curtain of spirituality lies a well-oiled PR machine. Itâs a show, and the ticket price is your soul!
