I agree (of course) as politics is often a manifestation of our inner state as projected onto the world what responsibility we have as human being to it. The "powers at be" would just as soon we not talk "religion and politics" as things get too out of hand for them and soon folks notice who is making life difficult for them. This is a group largely founded around concepts of Indian philosophy and in India they don't believe at all in avoiding talk of "religion and politics" and they wonder what is wrong with us that we avoid these topics.
