   You really have to watch this video to understand the cartoon.

   Actually, anyone who’s somewhat aware of what’s going on in the world of agribusiness will get this cartoon, at least the surface meaning. And anyone who has lived where farmers’ rights are trampled by the big corporations, such as Monsanto, as well as those who’ve seen films such as Food, Inc.

   However, I would suggest that we consider how, like E. M. Forster’s “The Machine Stops,” this cartoon works on more than one level. Then we might really understand it.

   ‘Monsanto’ literally translates as “Sacred Mount”. The original, non perverted Monsanto is located in the spiritual world where the bhakti-lata-bija has been monopolized and so devotees go there with dakshin in hand to gratefully receive it from the hearts of saintly traders. Nitai Gauranga!
