OUR SANCTIMONIOUS SANCTITY !
Our sacred texts/scriptures emphasize obscurantism,appeasement based on virtual sycophancy and mechanical ritualism in place of social or moral behavior. Today even in 21st century ,meaningless mechanical ritualism and obscurantism is the only gauges to evaluate the character of a man.Even a most corrupt,wicked and morally degenerated person is regarded pious and righteous if his practice and perception is religious.Our scriptures assure us that even the most heinous sins and crimes of present life and  of    many "consecutive births" can be absolved by uttering the name of "god"[reference Geeta,9/30,9/31,18/66 and so many other] or just having a dip in supposedly holy river along with visit to a pilgrimage to a "holy" place.
Osho,has rightly pointed out,"they have been praised.Their paleness has been given the halo of holiness.Their anti life attitudes have been raised to great spiritual fantasies. Their hysterical experiences have been called samadhi. Their madness has been respected as if something of the beyond has descended on them. Their gibberish is thought to be esoteric;people go on finding meaning in it.Fools have been worshiped,masochists have been thought to be ascetics,sadists have been thought to be great saints. Perversions of all kinds have been given a spiritualist connotation."[The goose is out, page 133-134].
