always been available amidst humans in the form of the Veda. The crowning annunciation of the Veda is Adwaitham – the singularity of the Aathma that permeates every animate and inanimate entity of the universe.

            The practical application of the Veda is the focus of the Dharmasastras. The cognitive content of the Dharmasastras is to curtail the skiving temperament of the mind towards sensual pursuits. The result is the attainment of psychological steadiness termed moderation. Attaining moderation in attitude, articulation and action is the vital link that connects the known materialistic worldly experience called Dwaitham and the unknown ultimate termed Adwaitham; the eternal substratum.

            The ability to reason is the prime factor of differentiation that hails the supremacy of humans over any other life form. However, it is the sole thriving medium for the perplexity in antagonistic recalcitration between the theists and atheists. Hence the evidence that substantiates the colossal maltreatment to a vital calibre of humans. The progress of developments in scientific research has opened the doors to cogent evidence that manifests the sensibility inherent in religious activities, effectively minimising the prevailing conflict.

            For instance, when people with scientific temper considered the universe a flat plate; Maharishis have always professed that the creator of this universe is termed "Brahma"; and the product created by him is "Brahmaand" indicating that the universe is elliptical, like an egg. Also, when scientific episteme considered that it was the Sun that revolves the Earth, the postulate of Maharishis the "Gaurava – Laagava Nyaaya" envisions Sun and Earth in the Guru – Shishya relationship; hence it is the latter that revolves around the former.

            Such significations sensibilise that the abilities acquired by humans through reasoning and rational reductionism must be exercised and enforced with respect and regard to the Veda. Factually, the Veda transcends every religion. The popular belief of Sanskrit being the language of the Veda is erroneous. The Veda is a collection of sound in a systematic format called "Chandas". Chandas is a terminology that indicates a measurement of sound – Metre. Chandas is the source of the language – Sanskrit.

            It hence can be extrapolated that sound is the educated emanation of the entire existence. Decrypting the sound in its own course towards source point is the purpose of the Veda. Dharmasastras aim to qualify the human body, mind and intellect to effectively handle the Veda. The idea of containing the Veda as belonging to a specific religious belief is incorrect and neritic. For instance, the practice of circumambulating deity in temples is a conscious replication of human's significant subconscious activity.

            Every entity on this planet irrespective of religion and/or level of cognition, circumambulates the Sun subliminally. Even the calculation of one's age, whether theist or atheist; is a mere count of such circumambulations! The essence of the Rig Veda can be inferred as hailing the supremacy of "Agni"; as, the beginning and conclusion of Rig Veda refers to "Agni". The gross visible "Agni" is the ball of fire – the Sun! The wisdom on the impermanency of materialism is the subtle "Agni" that cauterises desire in one's mind.

            The religious practice of "Aathmapradhakshinam" performed during the conclusion of worshipping any deity is the facsimile of the axial gyration of the planet Earth that we have inhabited; hence a subconscious act of every human! The practice of Sarvaangapradhakshinam in temples, is a conscious combination depicting the rotation and revolution of the planet Earth around an influencing object – the Sun. The concept of destiny that nullifies every human effort evidences the fact that the rotation and revolution of planet Earth is executed and sustained by the gravitational pull of the Sun!

            Limiting the Veda as belonging to a specific religion and the denouncement of an ultimate source termed 'God' is an act of infantilism. The intellectual development of humans is a contrivance that must adhere to appropriate methods of implementation to remain welcome and utile. The Dharmasastras describe an omnium-gatherum of life forms associated with the divine; however, the status of explicit divinity is accorded to two specific beings – the cow and the elephant. Scientific and rational analysis of the beings – cow and elephant with regard to the Veda and the Dharmasastras indicate their supreme qualities that must be imbibed and utilised for human welfare in an apposite manner.

            The versatility of the elephant to lift huge objects as well as miniscule stuff marks its uniqueness. Being a vegetarian, devouring discarded dry twigs; despite its somatic strength and retentive abilities, the disposition of the elephant to remain convivial, authenticates its divinity. The excreta of every living being emanates foul odour, except the cow dung. The antiseptic properties of ash obtained from dung is proven. The smoke that emanates out of incinerating cow dung along with ghee has the ability to circumvent the harmful radioactive emissions; larger the benefit when accompanied by Chandas.

            Owing to its nativity and indigenous availability, the gaseous fuel obtained from bovine dung is an excellent replacement to the imported petroleum based energy. The milk obtained from purebred native cows of India termed A2 milk, finds similarity to human milk; hence nutritious; unlike the yield of hybrid cows. It is reported that the compost manure prepared from the dung provided by a single bovine animal is sufficient to nourish at least quartette acre of dry land. The demand for providing such a utility is the stubble that is otherwise discarded waste.

            The dung and urine of cow are integral elements assisting the process of ayurvedic preparations. Economically, the amount of dung obtained from one bovine upon desiccation is fuel equivalent of wood from sextuplet hulky trees. Hence the proper focus of utilising dung is in preserving the green cover of the Earth. Butchering the bovine for its flesh and skin; than utilising the dung provided aplenty 'womb-to-tomb' that preserves forest; is an anserine act.

            It is an age old practice of cleaning utensils with the eco-friendly ash of cow dung than the high-priced synthetic detergents. India has always remained and identified as a source of spirituality to the entire world. The essence of spirituality is humility that bestows the ability to live in peace and harmony with every living being. The technological developments in India must adhere to the utilisation of its natural resources in a sensible manner amicable to every other live entity.

            Managing Balance of Payments, and aiming surplus in exports; lacking focus and efforts to sustain the spiritual spine of India would effectually exterminate the soul of the world. Concisely, the issue is neither the call of a single religion and its followers; nor addressing the demand for a specific product in the world market aiming the nation's economic prosperity; rather validating the sensitivity of humans in their abilities to ratify decisions and activities that vouches sensible derivation of value and utilities, which in course furthers amity among every living being – not just humans.

 

Unless and until the value of value is valued; sensible and sustained progress is inconceivable!

            The mystery of universe is indeterminable to the noesis of common man. Even so, based on the levels of one's reflective analysis; multiple theories on the origin of universe and life on earth has been asserted. Developments in atomic science has ascertained homogeneity of every entity at the sub-atomic level. The results arrived through scientific research is found to extol the propositions of Sanathana Dharma. Still, the fact remains that the posits of Sanathana Dharma transcends the reach and dimensions of scientism.

            The sole objective of every human activity is to secure peace. Irrespective of the activities decreed, the purpose of any religion is to steer the human mind to rest in peace. Peace is a state when the mind is subdued and eventually dissolved due to devoid of desire. The duple substratum of desire is perception of duality and the thought of performance. As long as the mind perceives another object, the seed to emotions is sown. Peace is unattainable up to a time the mind oscillates amidst feelings of sorts.      

            Among the multitude of religions that prevail, the gravity of Sanathana Dharma is in its ability and practicality to dismiss the human mind from external stimuli in a phased manner. The consequential perception of the vacuousness of materialistic pursuits grants absoluteness in attitude, articulation and actions. Absoluteness is the singular quality that bestows inaction in action; hence eternal peace. Sanathana Dharma has asserted two succeeding levels of psychological maturity to peace.

            The penultimate stage is termed as the "Maarjhaala Kishore Nyaaya"; wherein the attitude of the sadhaka is akin to the instinctive nature of an infant cat. The assertion is to remain psychologically detached from every human effort and opine each experience as divine blessing; irrespective of materialistic results. Just like the effortless nature of a baby cat, when the sadhaka repudiates one's experience and efforts, gains tranquillity. Psychologically, though actions are performed through the sadhaka, mind remains aloof.

            The substratum of such a psychological disposition is the clarity in thought that every activity is as ordained by the divine; hence free will and emotions arising out of attachment to circumstance is an illusion. The detachment gained thus stabilises the mind on the activities to be performed as one's duty. However, since the severity in spirit is unfeasible to the common man doused in the thought of performance and possession; the Sanathana Dharma has asseverated a stepping stone – the "Markadaga Kishore Nyaaya".

            The elegance of Sanathana Dharma is in its sensitivity and compassion to empathise with the psychologically immature sadhaka overpowered by the sense of performance and possession. Hence the dictum of rituals and activities aim to manoeuvre the mind towards the various forms of the divine. The attitude, articulation and actions that revolve around the thoughts of the divine, owing to the acknowledged supremacy of the deity adored subdue the mind, maturing to the "Maarjhaala Kishore Nyaaya".

            The averment of the rituals and prayers as decreed by Sanathana Dharma that aim to demand the grace of the divine canopied under the "Markadaga Kishore Nyaaya" slakes the mind due to the psychological displacement of anxiety to the celestial. The objective of this philosophy is to clasp one's mind on the divine as firm as the natural grip of a monkey. However, in reality the human mind is akin to the nature of a monkey on all materialistic aspects, except clinging on to the divine.

            The immaturity of the sadhaka; to remain steadfast on the ultimate truth – Adwaitham, to perceive every incident and accident as an enactment of the universal singleton, due to the provoking thought of performance and possession; and the inability to decoct and manoeuvre one's mind exclusively on the celestial, has generated the need to an alternative route to salvation. The benevolence of Guru is the link of compassion between the aeonian pronouncement of Sanathana Dharma and the envisaging escapist attitude of the sadhaka.

            The external similarities in the human form of the divine as Guru, establishes a profound link with the ideating sadhaka to influence and initiate on the righteous path to salvation. It was at one such eventful moment in the history of the human
