Damn the Religious Gurus and Great Authors

I am highly dissatisfied with all those “talk-shops” who call themselves as the intellectuals or otherwise. This dissatisfaction is highest in case of religious gurus who most of the times do nothing other than talking. After watching few of these gurus on various religious channels, I came to the conclusion that all that they do is:

1. Pick some story from the mythical text such as some episode from Ramayana, Mahabharata and Old/New Testament etc
2. Or take any story attached with Lord Rama, Shiva etc, Prophet Mohammad, Jesus etc
3. Mix it some philosophical mumbo-jumbo
4. Deliver it with Lots of Voice Modulation, Postures and Gestures

But nowhere have I seen any talk about concrete and structural change. They talk about how one should spent his rest of life in devotion and prayer, how one should respect the divine entities, how one should get detached from this world and related pleasures but nowhere they “lead by deed”. These gurus have life of Kings where they have Lofty Ashramas and Institutes, all the Luxuries that money can buy despite the fact that all this money is earn through teaching that calls for detachment from the material objects. Ironical but true.

This confuses me as what is the relevance of any teaching if it can’t bring any tangible change in life of others. In my opinion a true prayer should incorporate an “action tendency”. In other words every prayer should include some activity that helps in uplifting the downtrodden and provide help to needy. Any other form of prayer is just a “just verbal gymnastic” for me.

Similarly all those authors and writers who claim to bring out the plight of human race in eloquent manner are also useless group of intelligent people who use their knowledge to create different combinations of verbal utterances that means nothing except expressing something in which they themselves do not believe. They use their knowledge to label themselves as visionaries and all others as foolish and misguided lot who is too stupid to understand the deeper meaning of life and is fixated with acquiring comfort of life.
In my opinion both of these, gurus and Authors are criminals of humanity who not only waste their talent and time for “useless cognitive garbage” but also confuse and influence million of others by making them dissatisfied from their current form of “world view” without providing them any other practical and feasible “world view”.

To me, a true prayer involves bringing smile to the people who has nothing to feel good about and a true literature master piece creation occurs when something concrete and structural in put forward that can and should enhance the capacity of masses to feed, cloth and develop them.

Now the question is “what you think is right????”
