The Unholy Nexus of Businessmen, Politicians, and Spiritual Leaders
The trio of businessmen, politicians, and spiritual leaders has always worked hand in hand because each one benefits from the others. Their relationship is built on mutual self-interest that keeps the wheels of power turning.
The Businessman-Politician Dependency
A businessman cannot move forward without the support of politicians. Since the power lies in the hands of politicians, every project or plan by a businessman requires political approval. Therefore, businessmen have to bow to politicians for permissions and favors.
At the same time, politicians rely heavily on businessmen. Without donations from corporate entities, political parties would not be able to run their campaigns. Businessmen finance the political machinery, and in return, they expect favors from the system.
Corruption in Quality and Safety
Even if a company fails to meet quality standards in its products, political connections can grant it free rein to continue operations. Politicians use their power to shield these companies from accountability. In return, they collect hefty donations and indirect bribes for the support they provide.
The Baba-Politician Equation
Spiritual leaders, or “babas,” also have their own strategic alliance with politicians. Regardless of how much superstition a baba spreads, if he has political protection, there will be no legal action against him. The politician benefits from this alliance because babas attract huge crowds—crowds that can easily be converted into votes during elections.
This mutual benefit ensures that no matter what irrational or harmful ideas are promoted, the authorities will turn a blind eye as long as it benefits their power game.
The Real Victim: Common People
This unholy alliance of the trio exploits the masses. When companies sell low-quality products, it’s the common man who suffers. When babas spread superstition, it’s the public that gets trapped in blind belief. And when politicians want to keep people ignorant, they work hard to prevent awareness, because an awakened public would never vote for corrupt leaders.
Conclusion
This trio—businessmen, politicians, and spiritual leaders—will always walk together because their interests are deeply intertwined. And as long as people remain unaware, these three will continue to manipulate, exploit, and mislead the society for their personal gains.
