<*CIVILIZATION, SCIENCE & SPIRITUAL PROGRESS*> by P. R. Sarkar
[Book:PROUT in a Nutshell,Part 06:06]
Civilization, science and spiritual progress by P. R. Sarkar
Today, the subject of my discourse is "Civilization, Science and
Spiritual Progress". The collective name of different expressions of
human life is culture. I may as well tell you at the very outset that
culture is one for the whole human race.
What is civilization? The subtle sense of refinement that we come
across in the different expressions of life is calledcivilization. Let
me give you an example. Suppose some guests have arrived at our home.
We may address them imperatively, "Come" or we may welcome them by
saying, "Please come in." This polite address by adding the word
"please" speaks of civilization or a civilized address, for herein the
subtle sense of refinement is evident. The imperative word, "come",
bereft of warmth, only smacks of lack of culture. So we see there are
both good and bad sides to culture, but the subtle sense of refinement
is the touch-stone of civilization.The subtle sense of refinement that
we get in culture intrinsically imbibes the human power of
discriminative judgement. We may call those human acts and behaviour
civilized that give evidence of this discriminative judgement,in a
great measure. It is sometimes noticed in certain groups of people
that their actions have thesupport of judgement, and then again in
some others that there is an absence of it. If judgement were based
merely on this basis, to call the former civilized and the latter
half-
civilized would not be fair or desirable.
In the Indian social system women have beengiven a motherly status,
but in the practical field they are not given the same amount of
prestige. Conversely, in the European society, though motherly status
is nil, women certainly enjoy equal rights and prestige in the
practical field. Now it is very hard to say which of the two is more
civilized. But I would say, the greater the support of judgement in
action and behaviour, the better shall be the expression and
development of civilization.

Human progress by P.R. Sarkar
There are three fundamental strata in the manifest universe: physical,
metaphysical and causal. Over and above, there is one transcendental
sphere. Such are the three strata in the human entity, too: crude,
subtle and causal. And there is one reflected consciousness besides.
There is no question of any develop ment in the conscious sphere
because "Atman" is a non-attributed transcendental entity. Where there
is imperfection and imperma nence, there lies the scope for
development. The movement from imperfection towards perfection is
called progress. There cannot be any development in the transcendental
sphere, which is perfect and eternal, though there is full scope for
it in the psychic world. The crude body is made up of five rudimental
factors, which are nothing but the crude manifestation of Macrocosm.
These fundamental factors are the constituent parts of the physical
bodies of all created beings.
The One who is the origin of all beings is the Supreme Entity. The
Supreme Entity belongs toall, equally. To get protection and to enjoy
the manifested universe of the Supreme Entity is the birthright of
each and every being. Nobody has any right to accumulate excessive
wealth. To accumulate and desire more mundane property is a crime
against society and a sin against God. It isa highly immoral and
antisocial action. To fight such vested interests and to wage a war
against such antisocial activities is upright and sacramental.

The future of civilization by P. R. Sarkar
Modern minds are often perplexed by the fear and doubt of the
extinction of the human race within a short period. People deemthat
civilization is passing through a very critical phase and there is no
possible escape from its total annihilation. But thiscan't happen.
Both individuals and society are dependent on three factors for their
existence, viz., Asti, Bhati and Ananda. Dwelling place, food,
clothing, education and medical facilities are the sine qua non for
Asti or existence. The term Bhati means Vibhati or development and
progress. The mere earthworm for instance, has existed for hundreds of
millions of years, yet it does not signify existence in the true sense
of the term. That is to say, there has to be Bhati, progress and
development. Eating, drinking and being merry cannot represent a true
life. It would be an encumbrance, a boredom.
For the all-round development of an individual or a society a goal is
needed. But for this determined goal the direction and purpose of
development will remain confused. A bud blooms into a flower; this is
what you may call its development. The purpose of Bhati or development
is the attainment of Ananda or bliss. The term Ananda connotes
infinite happiness, the equipoise of pleasure and pain, the perfect
mental peace.

in a Nutshell,Part 06:03]
Dialectical materialism and democracy by P. R. Sarkar
Social advancement is thetriadic blending of thesis, antithesis and
synthesis. When a particular theory or thesis loses its competence and
power toeffect the collective welfare, an antithesis is created
against the prevalent theory. As a result of clash and cohesion
between these two opposing forces a resultant is created, and this
resultant is called synthesis. Is it true that the welfare of society
is only possible in the stage of synthesis? When those who have the
duty and responsibility for materializing social welfare neglect
minoritiesor the people in general, the synthesis of a particular age
transforms itself into the thesis of thenext age.
The underlying principles that are relevant to the question of social
justice are: the universe is a moving phenomenon, likea moving
panorama; everything in this empirical world has its roots in
relativity; and everything is moving within the orbit of time, space
and person.

Synthesis and analysis by P. R. Sarkar
Human beings have an instinctive and limitless desire for all-round
victory in all spheres of life. In any sphere of life – whether
important or unimportant – it is inconceivable for people to live an
undignified life. The idea of moving along a fixed path, subservient
to nature, is repugnant to human psychology. Where human beings do
conform to the rules of nature under the pressureof circumstances it
is due to their blatant lack of adequate stamina and intellect.
All human Sádhaná or spiritual practice is directed towards removing
internal weakness. In order to overcome their imperfections, people
constantly welcome ideological conflicts and thus create newer and
newer ideologies. This is how human society evolved and established
agreat and rational ideology conducive to thehighest fulfillment of
life. However, not all human energy is exhausted in removing mental
imperfections. As people have to maintain their existence in this
apparently adverse physical world, naturally they must make constant
endeavours in the physical sphere. In order to conquer static
Prakriti, physical science or Bhaotika Vijiṋána evolved.The Saḿskrta
word "Vijiṋána", however, is notsynonymous with the English word
"science", because in Saḿskrta, Vijiṋána stands for Brahma-Vijiṋána,
intuitional science or spiritual science.

<*SHUDRA REVOLUTION AND SADVIPRA SOCIETY*> by P. R. Sarkar [Book:PROUT
in a Nutshell,Part 06:01]
Shudra revolution and Sadvipra society by P. R. Sarkar
The inevitable consequence of vaeshya exploitation is shúdra
revolution. When the vaeshyas, maddened withexcessive greed, lose
theircommon sense completely and forsake their humanity totally, then
for shúdra revolutionthe opportune time has come. However, it cannot
be said that shúdra revolution will automatically occur just because
an opportune time has come. Proper conditions relating to place and
person will bearmuch of the responsibility.
Revolution takes place when, from the economic perspective, only two
classes remain in society: the exploiting vaeshyas and the exploited
shúdras. But if there are no vipras and kśatriyas from a mental
standpoint – in other words if there are no people who, though shúdras
from an economic standpoint, are vipras or kśatriyas from a mental
standpoint – shúdra revolution will notbe possible. It is not the work
of people who have a shúdra mentality to bring about revolution. They
avoid struggle; they are playthings of the vaeshyas.
At the high point of the Vaeshya Age, the vaeshyas easily manipulate
the shúdra-minded shúdras. If the kśatriya- and vipra-minded shúdras
lack spirit, they will also be bought by the vaeshyas' money. Thus
shúdra revolution ultimately depends on shúdras who have sufficient
spirit and are mentally vipras or kśatriyas.

<*THE VAESHYA AGE*> by P. R. Sarkar [Book:PROUT in a Nutshell,Part
05:03]
The Vaeshya age by P.R. Sarkar
Both the kśatriyas and the vipras like to enjoy material wealth,
though their methods of accumulating material objects are different.
The vaeshyas, however, are more interested in possessing material
objects than enjoying them. Looking at their possessions, or thinking
about them, gives them a certain peace of mind. So in the Vaeshya Age
the practical value of materialgoods is less than at any other time.
They gradually become inert both literally and in financial terms.
This is the greatest curse of the Vaeshya Age, because the less the
mobility of material goods, that is, the greater their stagnation in
different spheres, the more harmfulit is for the common people. In the
Kśatriya and Vipra Ages it is very rare for people to die of
starvation while grains rot in the warehouses. Although there is
disparity of wealth in the Kśatriya and Vipra Ages, kśatriyas and
vipras do not kick others into a pit of privation, poverty and
starvation while they themselves enjoy their wealth. This is because
they see other people as tools to be used for the purpose of
exploitation, but do not see them as the wellspring of exploitation as
the vaeshyas do. To a vaeshya, the shúdras, kśatriyas and vipras are
not only tools to be used for exploitative purposes, they are the
wellspring of exploitation as well.

The Vipra age by P. R. Sarkar
The intellect of intelligentpeople can penetrate where the rays of the
sun cannot. Such people want to enjoy matter without being subservient
to it. In other words, they want tocontrol matter with their mental
waves. It is not only kśatriyas who do this, but vipras as well. The
fundamental difference between kśatriya-hood and vipra-hood is that
the ego of the kśatriyas draws objects of enjoyment to itself through
a physical struggle with all opposingforces, while the ego of the
vipras or their desire for enjoyment draws matter to itself either by
the physical force of others through physical clash, or directly
through psychic clash but avoidingphysical clash, or through physical
or psychic clash or both according to the demands of the situation.
The salient feature of vipra life is that they enjoy the glory of
victory and avoid the ignominy of defeat, and that in theirpersonal
lives they satisfy their desires for enjoyment without takinggreat
risks. Like kśatriyas, vipras are constantly engaged in fighting, but
their fight takes place on the battleground of the intellect. Thus,
vipras are intellectuals.

Shúdra Society
When the waves of the unit mind try to adjust to the rhythm of
materialistic waves without attempting to assimilate them, the unit
mind gradually becomes materialistic. [[If a person's mind dwells on
matter, that mind will naturally be filled with tamoguńii [static]
darkness, and the person will be called a shúdra.]] Those who have a
shúdra mentality can collectively be called the shúdra society.
Needless to say, such people cannot control anything, because the
crudest waves, the waves of matter, control them.
When the human race was in an embryonic stage and humans evolved from
animal mentality to human mentality, human beings then, as today,
found two paths open to them. The first was to become crude by
ideating on matter – the path of shúdra-hood; and the second was to
overcome material and psychic obstacles by ideating on subtle things –
the path of kśatriya-hood. In those days people's minds were so full
of material thoughts, due to living in a hostile natural environment,
thatat that early stage everyone necessarily possessed a shúdra
mentality

The laws of social dynamics by P. R. Sarkar
The existence of the relative factors of time, space and person is
substantiated in the field of cognition, and the cognizant bearing in
its inertness is the highest stance of these factors. The inherent
dynamicity of an entity, depending on the existential collaboration of
another entity (or in certain cases of other entities, in which case
immobility becomes of indefinite character), is called its gati
[movement], while that ofan entity independent of other entities is
called its agati [immobility]. When this relative movement loses its
adjustment with the temporal factor it maybe called a state of pause –
in a limited sense, staticity. The movement of an entity in relation
to the witnessing faculty may be called its accelerated or retarded
movement, depending upon the degree of its actional expression

There are numerous divergent views regardingthe exact interpretation
ofthe term "nation". Some are of the opinion that the inhabitants of a
particular state form a nation. Even if the terms "state" and
"country" are taken to be synonymous, the controversy over "nation"
does not end. Some people hold the view that the structure of a nation
depends on language. Others are of the opinion that the foundation of
a nation depends on one or more than one factor from among the
following: similar manners and customs, similar mode of living,
similar traditions, racial similarity, religious similarity, etc. But
practical experience does not indicate that these factors are
especially important.

The universe is the psychic and internal projection of Cosmic
Consciousness, and ours isa reflected projection. We cannot create
anything original. Whatever we do, we do with the physical waves
radiated from matter. We can [only] change their form and create
chemical compounds or physical mixtures. Thus ours is a physico-
psychic or extro-internal projection.
Rudimental factors cannotbe created by human beings, hence ownership
lies with the Cosmic Entityand not with individuals. We can only use
these factors. We are like the members of a joint family under the
Dáyabhága(1) system of law sermonizedby Shrii Jiimutabahana
Bhattacharya.
This universe is our common patrimony. Ours is a universal joint
family, Parama Puruśa [Cosmic Consciousness] being Supreme Father.
Like members of a joint family,we should live with the policy of "Live
and let others live." The exploitedand unexploited potentialities of
the worlddo not belong to any particular person, nation or state. They
can only enjoy these potentialities. We are to utilize all the mundane
and supramundane wealth accepting the principle of Cosmic inheritance.
This is our social dharma. It is not only our social dharma, but the
logical and rational approach too. This is the correct social
philosophy.

Spirituality is not a utopian ideal but a practical philosophy which
can be practised and realized in day-to-daylife, however mundane it
be. Spirituality stands for evolution and elevation, and not for
superstition inaction or pessimism. All fissiparous tendencies
andgroup or clan philosophies which tend to create the shackles of
narrow-mindedness are inno way connected with spirituality and should
be discouraged. That which leads to broadness of unison alone should
be accepted. Spiritual philosophy does not recognize any
distinctionsand differentiations unnaturally made between one human
being and another, and stands for universal fraternity.

The place of sadvipras in the samája cakra by P. R. Sarkar
Primitive human beings had no society and the whole set-up was
individualistic. Even the concept of family was absent. Life was brute
andnon-intellectual. Nature was the direct abode and physical strength
ruled the day. The strong enjoyed at the cost of the weak, who had to
surrender before the voracity of the physical giants. However, the
sense of acquisition had not developed in them, and they worked
manually, and there was no intellectual exploitation in that age.
Though life was brute, it was not brutal.
If shúdras be defined as those who live by manualwork or service, this
primary stage of nature's brute laws could be named the Shúdra Age,
because all were manual workers. The reliance on physical power
gradually led a chosen few to lead the rest by the strength oftheir
muscles. They were the leaders of the shúdras.

too much self-interest in the individual members, the formation of
groups for economic or social advantage, and the lack ofunderstanding
of others' acts not only bring about the downfall of society but also
completely eradicate it from the face of the earth. Instances of so
many groups and empires disappearing altogether are not rare in the
little-known history ofthis world.

All Ástika or theistic Indian philosophies unanimously believe that
Átman or unit consciousness is a continuous flow of Jiṋána or
knowledge. This is called Vijiṋána in Páli. There is a continuous
flowof Jiṋána, or in other words Jiṋána itself is a flow (Praváha).
Every object in the universe has its own flow and wave or dynamic
force. According to Yoga philosophy Paramátman or Supreme
Consciousness is an infinite flow of Jiṋána.

Problem of the day by P. R. Sarkar
To the great hero Shrii Subhash Chandra Bose
whom I did love and whom I do love even now.
1
Parama Puruśa [Supreme Consciousness] is my Father, Paramá Prakrti
[Supreme Operative Principle] is my Mother, and the universe is my
homeland. We are all citizens of this universe. The universe is the
thought projection of the Macrocosmic Mind, and it is in the
extroversial and introversial phases of the Cosmic imaginative flow
that the creation, preservation and destruction of all entities
continues.
When an individual imagines an object, then that person alone, and no
one else, is the owner of the object. For example, when an imaginary
human being roams about in an imaginary green field, the imaginer, and
not the imaginary person, is the owner of the field. The universe is
the thought projection of Brahma [the Supreme Entity], so the
ownership of the universe lies with the Supreme Entity, and not with
His(1) imagined beings.

Fwd: * Various occupations * by P. R. Sarkar [ Book: PROUT in a Nutshell, Part 02:02]

* Various occupations * by P. R. Sarkar
[ Book: PROUT in a Nutshell, Part 02:02]
Various occupations by P. R. Sarkar
That which keeps something alive is said to be its vrtti [occupation].
The physical pabula on which the mind depends for its existence and
development, or the objects on which the mind ideates, are one's
mental occupation. The subtlest feeling a person can experience, which
fillsthe mind with bliss, can be said to be one's spiritual
occupation. In the same way there are various physical occupations
which preserve one's physical existence and maintain the body. A means
which one adopts to stay alive inthe physical sphere is called an
occupation; for example, one may be a doctor, a teacher, a
businessman, etc.
It requires very little thought to realize that the different
occupations create divisions between human beings. As a result people
who lack high ideals usually form groups. The psychological reason is
that the people'sfeelings are shaped by thenature of their occupation.
And these feelings together with theidentical nature of the people's
mental occupations encourage the formation of groups. No matter how
intense their professional jealousyor rivalry, a lawyer will seek out
the company of another lawyer, a soldier that of another soldier, a
doctor that of another doctor, and a renunciant that of another
renunciant.
A detailed analysis of human psychology will clearly reveal that
because psychic pabula are connected to matter due to the need to
preserve physical existence, they are strongly influenced by matter.
However, if a person has high ideals, hisor her materialistic ideation
will be transformed into psychic ideation which in turn willdevelop a
spiritual quality. One will thus acquire the capacity to rise above
group [groupist] psychology. Butdue to an absence of spiritual
idealism and universal outlook, some of those engaged in different
occupations become exploiters insteadof assets to society. They
completely ignore the fact that their individual or group interests
are not separate from, but are a part of, the collective interest.
