Highlights – In Suktas 37 to 39, importance of winds and Vedic knowledge are emphasized. Winds move this planetary world, vehicles and life force within body of living beings. So, all persons should know the properties of air to make its good use for happiness of living beings. Monsoon winds carry up clouds and cause rains thereby bringing agricultural production and fruits. Persons who are well-versed in the science of Prana (wind power) and practisers of Yoga, enjoy good health. As the airs have no enemies and are liked by all, in the same way, people should be endowed with knowledge, righteousness, strength and force and justice, so that they may rule over all with justice, may destroy their opponents and should become so popular as to have no enemy at all.
