Politics indeed plays a part in the cosmic movie. But as spiritual aspirants, we are not required to take positions or even to listen to politicians. I cannot resist seeing this part of the cosmic movie unfold though, and remain amazed at how much unreasonable ideology is touted around.
In response to the above Paramahansa Yogananda did say that ‘it is our responsibility to vote in free elections.’ So I would glean by this statement that he also thought it was our responsibility to know what we are voting for or against. If and when I see the quote I will let you know.
