Meaning: The line of Rigved 10/18/2 has given us the instructions on good moral conduct. According to the line - "Those who adopt good moral conduct in place of wicked conduct, achieve excellent life and longevity. They obtain physical and mental purity while being blessed with money and children".
Message: Human life is an invaluable gift from God. Man has received the facilities not granted to any other life-form. He has been granted a family, medical-care, industry, housing, vehicles and entertainment and the power to talk, laugh, read, write and think. Do other animals enjoy all these? Why all this special grace of God on man only?
Every animal born in this world meets death after some time. No one knows when he will die. God has given the facility to man only to push death on one side and achieve immorality. He should not lead the life of a moral, but live determinedly like an immortal.
By studying the history and the characters of excellent men, it becomes clear that some qualities are extremely essential for man's progress. These qualities by themselves are the test of man. Man will become excellent with immorality of name in proportion to the qualities possessed by him. The lives of all great men of the world are replete with these qualities. No man will achieve immorality of name without the help of these qualities. The grandeur of these qualities has been mentioned in many places in many ways in the holy Gita. These qualities are called 'Daivec Sampada'. Man can become immortal in this world only by adopting these virtues in his life.
Ours is the country of great men. From the time of Lord Ramchandra (or Ram), upto today, world-famous men have been born here. But it will be of no use to create only great men. It is both improper and impossible that people who can be counted on finger-tips become great by imbibing divinity and the rest live the life of hell. The level of our ordinary, very ordinary people also should be excellent.
Our bodily requirements, like other animals, are ordinary and can be easily fulfilled. But we utilize our extra capacity for indulging in our desires, for luxurious living for hoarding and for satisfying our ego. We stray from aims of this life and like a dying man just pull on with the burden of our lives.
By proper diet, proper daily routine, exercise, austerity etc we should keep the body clean and the mind pure and live 'yagyia'-life (i.e. live for others' welfare). In that case we can live over a hundred years by doing good deeds, enjoy the happiness of excellent wealth and children and enjoy the bliss of immortality of the soul.
