We shall discuss the hymns, Sukta wise & Mandala wise. Our focus is on the implicit meaning of the various hymns instead of literal translations of the hymns. These purported meanings are based primarily on the English translations by Swami Dharmanand Saraswati of the works done by Swami Dayanand Saraswati.
Highlights – The Sukta 49 to 51 of Mandala 1 teaches about the value system and virtues. Whether women or married couples both should follow the virtuous values and appreciate these. All should keep the company of leaned & virtuous people. Highly educated people should marry with the righteous woman. All married couples should observe perfect chastity and faithfulness to each other without any default. King, head of the institution, commander, etc. all should be respected because of their virtues. Men should get rid of all diseases and acquire strength by adopting necessary means, using fruits, herbs and ointments etc. It is the duty of the President of the Assembly, the Commander of the army and other officers of the State to kill their enemies like the sun dispelling darkness, to protect the righteous, to tread upon the noble path, to bear infinite might and to increase their influence to put an end to their' foes. If the power remains in the hands of the righteous and noble persons, the happiness of all increases thereby, but on the other hand, if it is in the hands of the wicked, it causes suffering and misery to all. Men should give up the bad habits of wicked ignoble people and cultivate noble disposition. Men should become righteous, dispelling all darkness of ignorance of the people, they should accept Dharma and renounce Adharma (unrighteousness). Learned persons should bring about the welfare of all beings. All men should associate themselves with learned persons and enjoy happiness and bliss in this world by adoring God and keeping company with the wise learned people with perfect love.
