It is simultaneously the most de\u00admanding spiritual path and the most forgiving. \u015aaivites have persisted through many ages through successfully adapt\u00ading work, service and skills according to the times while in\u00adter\u00adnal\u00adizing worship and holding firmly to the eternal values. The outer form of service or oc\u00adcupation does not change the spiritual search. Be he a skilled farmer, factory worker, village merchant, com\u00adpu\u00adter programmer or corporate executive, the \u015aai\u00advite is served well by his religion. \u015aaivism has all of the facilities for the education of hu\u00admankind back to the Source. Each futuristic age does not reflect a difference in the \u015aai\u00advite\u2019s relationship with his family, kula guru, teacher, satguru, Gods or God in his daily religious life. The \u015aaiva Dhar\u00adma: it is now as it always was. The Vedas implore: \u201cO self-luminous Divine, re\u00admove the veil of ignorance from before me, that I may behold your light. Reveal to me the spirit of the scriptures. May the truth of the scrip\u00adtures be ever present to me.
