Guest guest Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Valuing Values Indifference and apathy towards grave distress of the society is inexcusable for one and all. Even the ascetic life of Brahmanas has no claim for exemption in this, says Sreemad Bhagavatam (4.14.41). Brahmanah samadrik shanto deenaanaam samupekshakah / Sravate brahma tasyaapi bhinnabhaandathpayo yathaa // An intelligent man or a Brahmana may be impartial and peaceful. But if, becoming indifferent, he does not feel and express compassion to the miserable and the afflicted, all his spiritual or Brahminical merits will get drained, like water leaking from a broken pot.
