PRARPAYATU SHRESHTAMAYA
KARMANA
-------------( 1/1 Yajurveda)

O Lord, the creator of all, inspire us to perform good


deeds. Here we are inspired to indulge in good actions
because then only is progress possible. Every person
should strive to do such type of deeds so that they are
respected and honored for the same. By doing one can
attain physical development, mental development,
personal development and enhance communal
development. One should eat wholesome food and
should abstain from the wrong path.
MA HVARMA TE YAGYAPATIRHVARSHEETA |
-------------(1/2,a, Yajurveda)

Do not become wicked ,may your Yagya Pati (One who


performed the religious sacrifice) also not become
wicked.

It is important to be good and humble to tread on the


path of good action. A wicked person is unworthy of
every thing he does. Here it is prayed at neither the
person who performs the yagya and nor the means used
should be wicked and evil respectively. Good work done
with bad intentions is always a failure. That is why one
should refrain from manipulative tendencies. In the same
way the leader should abstain from such evil tendencies
because this leads to harm more than good. One and all
should therefore practice simple and good living . They
should never seek recourse to manipulative tendencies.
SA VISHWAYUHU SA VISWAKARMA SA VISHWA
DHAYAHA ||
-------------(1/4 Yajurveda)

The 3 Kamdhenus' (things that fulfil all wishes desired)


are the life span , the energy to do action and the energy
to sustain everything.

Every person who is blessed with long life performs all


his duties meticulously and attains all the attainments
(Purushastha) In this way he sustains throughout life.

Only by striving with perseverance and focus can one


accomplish all his desired goals. With these 3 Kamdhenus
humans can progress in all ways. One should not forget
that without the energy to sustain no one can perform
action and without both these factors one cannot have a
long life. One should , therefore utilise these energy's
constantly and according to situations.
EDAMAHAMNRUTAT SATYAMUDAIMI |

I am renouncing untruth and embracing truth. One


should accept truth, and should sacrifice their life to
protect truth. This is known as the Satyapal vrata. O
Lord ! I take an oath that I shall always protect truth and
may I be successful in observing and accomplishing this
vow.

Unless we do not renounce our greed we cannot protect


truth. Untruth inhibits self-development and physical,
mental and spiritual growth. Therefore we should all
adhere by truth.
MA BHERMA SAMVIKTHA
-------------(1/23 Yajurveda)

One should not deter, because of fear from the path of


ones duties. One should perform all his duties without
fear. The doors of progress are always closed for a person
who fears. Only a fearless person can initiate self
development and can also help in social and political
progress. Therefore one should fearlessly perform all his
duties.

Those who are industrious and successful only, earn


wealth. Those who try, definitely acquire wealth. One

---------(15/12, Rigveda)
The householders who can do good work only if he
remains like seasons.

If a person (householder) moulds himself alike a season


and indulges in the Karma of householder then only shall
he acquire happiness. One should understand the
meaning of seasons and should love his family. As a
result he shall benefit monetarily and materially. A
householder who practices restraint in taking care of his
family only shall acquire family happiness and achieve
higher social status.
SA TVAM NOM ADYE SUMANA EHAVITA BHAVA
VAJESHUSANTYA |
-----(36/2, Rigveda)

May you be pleased with us and protect us. The


protector himself should be of good nature and
disposition otherwise, he would end up as the
destructor. One should always remain in the company of
people that facilitate in making the mind pure and
protect the goods thoughts in our mind, those who help
us to be neutral in all states of happiness or pain.

Those who do not help us in this way can never be our


protectors. Let him be anyone but he should be a person
of good intellects and thought. Then only shall one be
blessed with happiness, peace and be successful.
MAHASTE SATO VI CHARANTYARCHAYO DIVI
SPRISHANTI MAHAVAHA ||
--------(36/3, Rigveda)

Your flames are spreading which are great and are like
embodiments of truths. Your rays are reaching the sky.

It is the inherent characteristic of fire to throw its flames


and illuminate all the four directions as far as possible.
Those great souls who tread on the path of truth become
famous and successful. Those who owe allegiance
towards truth are called great and exalted souls. Even
though we may try to hide the truth, it cannot be
concealed. It destroys the darkness of untruth and comes
into light sooner or later.

SAM SHRUTENA GAMEMAHIMA SHRUTENA VI
RADHISHI |
-------------(1/4, Atharvaveda)

May all become knowledgeable and may never detest


from knowledge.
One can attain all the knowledge from a Guru. That Guru
who teaches and imparts knowledge properly to his
disciple is a good guru. He who acquires theoretical and
practical knowledge and utilizes it in day to day life, in
the real sense becomes knowledgeable. Knowledge helps
us materially and spiritually. Therefore we should try to
acquire as much knowledge as possible and should
abstain from wrong or false knowledge. By doing so we
can break away from the chains of ignorance and misery.

NABHAYAMASI|
-------------(10/5,Atharvaveda)

May your mind be infused with one type of thought,


may every action of yours be embellished by one-one
thought, may your resolution be one. If you are isolated
and work incessantly, your action shall result in another
form of thought.
May your thoughts, resolution and actions culminate
into one form of strength, republican strength. Human
beings are social animals and cannot be isolated from
society because the society possesses strength. Growth is
possible only by working shoulder to shoulder. That is
why we are encouraged to bring unison in words, deeds
and thoughts. This only shall accrue in social
development and national growth
