The ultimate reality of this universe is God by whatever other
names it may be called. God is eternal, omnipresent, omnipotent and omniseient. God cannot
be seen but can very well be realized. Man should have faith in the greatness
of God and seek his grace.

Nature is bountiful and benevolent. Man has to be respectful
and grateful to nature. There is a balance of various elements in the
environment of nature. It is in the interest of man to utilize the natural
resources in such a way that this balance is not significantly disturbed.

Man is not body alone. Apart from the physical levels, man has
four other level of existence known as Koshas. In modern terminology,
they may be called five systems namely the body system, the energy system, the
desire system, the thought system and the self system. It is the primary duty
of man that he sincerely tries towards optimum and balanced development of all his five systems or koshas.

Man should exercise moderation in daily life and should
exercise control on his five organs of knowledge and five organs of action
through the practice of Yoga. This will also ensure control on mind and
sharpening of intellect resulting in optimum and balanced development of all
aspects of his personality.
