What is the aim and purpose of life for human beings? To fulfill our duties that come ahead irrespective of whether we like them or not-steadfast on the path of truth-never to lose sight of our real aim and celebrate every moment of our living with those who really matter.

Life is a celebration but it is a beginning as well. Human birth is a coveted happening even amongst the gods-that is what our eternal scriptures claim. Why? Because here we feel the real pull between what ought to be done (howsoever difficult or agonizing it might appear in the beginning) and whatever comes easy.

Beguiled in clutches of lust and anger, those who delve in occupations creating illusions through elusive means, themselves get enslaved by greed and avarice and are discarded by the gods. Today, we see a lot of such delusions and illusions being created in the name of truth through communication, sermons, public service and so on. But truth never withers away. This realization is the purpose of our existence in this realm-that truth and its path is eternal-and it is difficult. That is why, we are put on this test-sometimes we pass and many a times we fail.

But in these times with all the illusions and delusions around, it is getting harder by every passing moment to keep ourselves, especially the young soul, joining existence, on the right track. Eternal Solutions came into existence on the values and ethos that were built through ages with the experiences of our rishis, in direct contact with the wiser and more responsible forces of nature and in control of orchestrating life on earth. That is why we find echoes of such holistic methods of blissful living even in other civilizations, right from the Egyptian, Babylonian, Chinese, lncan and Mayan civilizations to numerous others. The rise and fall of civilizations right from Ravan’s Lanka and Hastinapur to Ceasar’s Rome prove only one point-that eternal values of right living are really timeless. They need to be translated in the contemporary method and process of communication and rationale. This is the motto of Eternal Solutions.

But truth conveyed is truth half implemented. It needs to be upholded with purushartha. Hence, truth has dual responsibility-to be reminded the right way, and to be upholded and implemented. Just like the sun that dispels darkness by its radiance, the Nrup protects the humans, King or governing authority, uproots all adharma from the earth. And how would the king do it? By following the path shown by his guru-Brahman and his inner conscience which is expected to be connected with the eternal life force-again Brahman. And who is a Brahman?

Brahman is one who is established in eternal truth, who is in the giving mode (accepting less than giving), has capability, profoundness of heart, self control and empathy (feel ing others’ pain or helplessness). If these qualities are within a lowly born then such a one is not Shudra and if these qualities are not within a one born to a Brahman then such a one is not a Brahman.

And there are opinions that our Sanatana culture is casteist!
