PRAISE TO GOD

Dear friends, greetings to everyone of you. Thank you for coming to my web-site. I intend to write from time to time to share my thoughts with you. I propose to write on issues which I consider are important to humanity. I would like to begin my writing with some of my thoughts on the Creator.


Moral Life in the Veda embraces human being’s duties to God and his fellow beings. The Vedas assume a very close and intimate relationship between human beings and god. Human beings have to live under the very eye of God. Apart from the duties owed to God, there are also duties to fellow humans. Kindness to all is enjoined; hospitality is reckoned a great virtue: “The riches of one who gives do not diminish… He who possessed of good hardens his heart against feeble man craving nourishment, against the sufferer coming to him (for help) and pursues (his own enjoyment even) before him, that man finds no consoler”. Virtue is conformity to the law of God, which includes the love of the human being. Vice is disobedience to this law.

..Thirukkural, authored by Thiruvalluvar in the Tamil Language, dates back to 2037 years ago. It is the work of a master-crafsman with no concern for anything but the human and the divine as co-existent and inseparable. The Thirukkural becomes an entire body of unwritten law coming under aram. Aram embraces a universal and permanent code of reference for human conduct as distinct from the more modern concept of legal sanction arising from written laws. The sanction contained in aram is inner and divine. Aram runs through Thirukkural as thread would through a chain of precious beads.

Thank you.
