| The ideals of
Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha of Hindu life have been explained with copious extracts
from the Hindu scriptures, like the Upanishads and theMahabharata."Not out of
passion or service, not even for the sake of life should one ever abandon Dharma. Dharma is everlasting. Happiness and misery are transitory. The soul is
eternal. That which embodies it is not eternal.', The Hindu ideal of duty is well
expounded through extracts from the Bhagavad Gita and other writings. It has been well
stated that the Path of duty leads to the path of virtue. And the poet has apostrophised
Duty thus :
"Stern daughter of the voice of God, O Duty, if that
name thou lovest! " |
