If you are feeling compunction in the matter of the unhappy women and children who are left forlorn by unscrupulous persons? Or you are unhappy for the matter of the goddess of learning being handled by Brahmins addicted to acts against the principles of religiosity? Or you may be sorry to see that the Brahmins have taken shelter of the administrative family where Brahminical culture is not respected.

It is a plight for the people of the earth that in the age of Kali the women and the children along with Brahmins and cow will be neglected grossly in the matter of their protection. In this age illicit connection with women will render many women and children uncared for. Circumstancially the women will try to become independant of the protection of man and marriage will be performed as a matter of formal agreement between man and woman resulting in most cases the children will be not taken care of properly. The Brahmins are traditionally intelligent class of men in the society and as such they will be able to pick up modern education to the topmost rank but so far moral and religious principles are concerned they shall be the fallen number one. Education and fallen in character go ill together but such things will go on as parallel to one another. The administrative heads as a class will condemn the tenets of Vedic wisdom and will prefer to conduct a so called secular state and yet the so called educated Brahmins will be purchased by such unscupulous administrators. Even a philosopher and writer of many books on religious principles may also accept an exhalted post in a government which denies all moral codes in the shastras the Brahmins are specifically restricted in acceptance of service. But in this age they will not only accept service but they will do so even it is of the meanest quality. These are some of the symptoms of the Kali age. And they are harmful to the general welfare of the human society.
