Can we relate or trace the roots of Capitalism in the Vedic approach of Sanathana Dharma ?

Question

In Vedas Name and Forms and the hierarchy of these matter, but in Vedanta more than the shapes, what comprises that shape matters more.

if we try to deduce the ritualistic and heirarchial parts in Vedas and then try to project it into Capitalism by replacing God with Money, the arguements hold good. Its somewhat a distorted version of Vedas with the aim not Godhood, but Material Money and Material Comforts the underlying thread of Capitalism.

Perhaps the extreme rightist Capitalism virtually assimilated the theme or underlying thread of whatever said in the time immemorial Vedas in a ditto manner with only the Aim, a being a different one.

The same hold good for Vedanta as subtle thread for the Leftist Philosophy.

What are your thoughts ?

Answer 1

Contemplate on God as Love. This is the easiest path to God. Some feel despair that God's grace will be denied to them because they do not have the resources to go on pilgrimage or do not have knowledge of scriptures. This belief is incorrect, for God does not measure out Grace in proportion to external achievements. He is not moved by quantity. To appease hunger, one does not need the grain in all the granaries in the world; a handful is enough. Similarly, one little act of surrender is enough to win His grace forever.
