The world needs less politics and more spirituality. Politicians deal with effects and do not go to the ultimate root of most matters, that root which lies in human ignorance and sinfulness. However, politics plays a necessary part in modern life. It would be impossible in this era to do away with it anyway. The remedy is to purify, uplift, and inspire political activities. This can be done by those who have attained some spirituality, through their descent into the arena, if they feel suited to it.
