What is effective and appropriate action with regards to the various political concerns around us? 
What role does spiritual practice play in informing our engagement with the world?
In this lecture, we explore four distinct schools of South Asian philosophy (Samkhya, Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta and Kashmir Shaivism) to show that the spiritual master is beyond all ethics: she is a spontaneous and effortless expression of perfect morality. 
We explore the Three Errors of Social Work before enlightenment and we expound on how service (seva) and activism can be a form of spiritual practice.
