Meaning:
The line of Rigved 5/51/15 says us that -"O men! Just as the Sun and the
moon moves on their prescribed paths with regularity, similarly man also should
go on the path of justice
Message:
What is this creation? This is merely a small part of the universe, which is
extremely great and extremely vast. Despite their progress every day, the
scientists have been able to learn only on infinitesimally small part of this
vast universe. Nobody knows how many solar-system, earths, and constellation
etcetera God has created which, bound by a definite organization, are moving in
space since billion of years. There is never any distortion in that
organization and not one of them shows laziness or neglect in following the
rules.
This
is the biggest gift to humanity. Yet, despite actually seeing the miracle of
God's organization, man himself considers living by the rules as an
imprisonment. Whether it is his familial or social work, in everything he wants
to behave willfully, and considers it as burdensome and insulting to follow the
rules. The guardians of the law, themselves consider it a feather in their cap
to break the law. They forget that working by the rules in an organized manner,
everyone gets much more facilities for development and an atmosphere of joy and
enthusiasm is also created. It is possible that a few men will get undeserved
by unbridled conduct, but by and large it gives rise in the majority of them to
frustration, which then develops into mutual enmity, malice etc.
Once
upon a time, man may have lived in solitude, but today he is a social animal.
His stability, facilities, devotion, progress and cheerfulness, all are
dependent on societal organization. Who created the innumerable means for his
bread, clothes, shelter, and comforts? How many million person working day and
night in fields and industries create these and reach out to him. If there is a
slight disturbance in this arrangement, or someone does something with
selfishness, then there is harassment to the society. Dark clouds of
uncertainty, doubt and disturbance will spread everywhere if attention is not
paid to organization and rules in the society. Everywhere lack of interest and
harshness will be seen and we will have to face improper and aggressive
wickedness. In such a situation the hope for one's own security, peace,
organization and future will crumble to dust.
We
must cultivate the habit of doing every work with regularity and punctuality in
personal, familial and social life. One's diet, daily schedule of work, exercise,
worship, trade or profession, all these must be carried out in an organized
manner, governed by rules. The members of the family, specially the children,
must be explained its importance right from the beginning, so that progressing
along, they will shine forth like the sun in the society.
One
must cultivate the nature of following the rules —
