Before we buy fruits from the vendor, we smell it, feel it, sound it, shake it and if allowed taste it.
This is how much we do before we buy couple of kilos of fruits. Just to make sure that they are not rotten. Whether they are readily edible or have to wait till they ripe. We go a step further. We try to make sure that they will taste good when they ripe.
Now think about the religious leaders we choose. Consider the political leaders we vote in the office.
We are entrusting our spiritual well being in the hands of one and the entire country, state, jilla or town in the hands of the other.
If We make mistake in buying couple of kilos of fruits, we do loose but the loss is very very insignificant compared to the mistake we make in choosing our religious leaders or the political leaders.
Misguidance by religious and political leaders have caused human sufferings of unprecedented scale through out the history of the mankind.
