Meaning: Vedas are known as the store of knowledge. There is all things of the universe. In this section of spiritual as stated in the Rig Veda 1/164/37 is that -"What a great mistake it is that man does not know his own self? He should obtain the knowledge about the 'jeevatma' (the soul within the body) with the help of the capability of language, literature etc".
Message: We are not going to get this human body again and again. We have obtained it only as an instrument through which we can achieve the ultimate objective of reaching God. But we are losing this good opportunity because of ignorance and wandering in worldly pleasure. Money, wealth, material means, wife, son, brothers, friends, relatives - ultimately none of these will be useful. Only our good deeds will be of use to us. We are forgetting that one day we have to go away by leaving this world. The body for whose indulgence and pampering, we take the help of truth-untruth, deceit, malice, intrigue, morality-immorality etc, and because of ignorance, we carry our sinful acts also _ the same body will one day be turned to ashes or dust. This body can die at any moment. Our whole knowledge of science, talents, education and learning is suffocating for earning a living and developing our capacity for the same. But we have forgotten the spirit or the soul, residing within the body, which is the ruler of the body. This soul is itself a part of God, but by not knowing it; we have been constantly suffering from sorrow by wandering for ever in darkness.
This human life of ours will be meaningful only when we obtain the real intelligence of walking on the truthful moral path after knowing the soul.
Ordinarily there are two types of intelligence. One is 'kubuddhi' (bad or corruption intelligence) which takes us on the path of sinful acts because of selfishness, attachment, greed etc. The other is 'subuddhi' (or good intelligence) which inspires us to work for our benefit and also saves us from evil deeds. Higher than this is Medha which gives us the capacity to differentiate between sat-karya (truthful act) and asatkarya (untruthful act). Pragya is at a higher level than Medha and constantly inspires us to do acts for public interest according to our discretion. Pragya-buddhi completely destroys tamogun and man goes on being liberated from selfishness. Beyond pragya is Pratibha or 'atmic drushti' (i.e. insight of the soul). With this extraordinary power of intelligence man is able to know the deepest secrets of the world. The most excellent form of 'buddhi' or intelligence is called rutambhara buddhi. It contains only the sattogun. This rutambhara buddhi or saatvik buddhi develops the capacity of identifying the truth and putting into conduct 'sat dharma' (i.e. truthful moral conduct). With the light of that knowledge, everything can be understood with complete clarity in its true form and one is liberated from doubts and false or illusory beliefs.
To-day man is making use of various types of knowledge, science, languages etc in various fields. He is creating mountains of gadgets and other means for comfort and happiness. It has been possible to create a situation today whereby with merely a touch of a button the desired work can be done. Because of this great achievement, man is committing the foolishness of believing himself greater than God. But have we received this human body only for this? Is this the only use of this intelligence? Is this the only objective of life?
We should go on developing our intelligence and recognize the real objective of human life and March ahead towards its.

Spiritual spirit comes from the very inner layer of our body. This is known as feeling of an individuals.
