Maximization of profit leads to neglect of spiritual side and values. In maximization of profits a man forgets his fellow human beings and maximizes the profit at others’ cost. Actually Hindu society is far ahead; it permanently neglects human beings. The higher Varnas maximize their gains at the cost of Shudras and untouchables who form the majority. The cruel, inhuman and permanent exploitation of Shudras and untouchables is a standing feature Hindu society. They do it eternally on eternal basis. Anything below permanent exploitation is below their dignity. They have a mixed standing army of forever servants on heredity basis. Since these servants come on the basis of heredity; the Hindu society never runs short of manual and still lower level servants. The more will come from where they came from. It simply takes a group of families of a servant jati to perpetuate itself to serve the dharma and higher Varnas without really getting anything in return.
In Rig Veda it is said that “Ekam Sat Vipra Bahuda Vadanti”. It means that there is only one truth (God) or Sat but wise men call him by different names. Or there is only one Absolute called by many names by knowledgeable men. However the same Absolute created a born servanthood in India and the same Absolute created brotherhood in West. These two Absolutes cannot be the same since a man created in West is essentially the same as created in East. This difference implies either a difference in men or a difference in Gods. According to scriptures of Hindu society the Varnas were created by the God with their inherent functions, which translates into inherent inequalities. Thus there have to be two Gods. If there is only one God then the differences in Varna dharma are created by man. Thus Hindu dharma has no divine origin and it is totally artificial creation of its lawmakers with scant regard to any kind of God. The God is falsely invoked to justify the Varna dharma. However, if the religion in West is artificial and the true religion of the world is Vedic dharma then the God is fascist. It is a difficult choice; take your pick or make and/or create another choice. An atheist would like to ignore the issue altogether. The Rig Vedic statement about only one God is more like a pretension to better understanding of the concept of God or a compromise between different sects. The exact nature of God is not told, neither the exact way of functioning of God. It was simply because the Rig Vedic people themselves did not know it...
