The Hindu way of life is rooted in what is called Vedic truths. It has a long history and has contributed greatly to Indian thought.
In the beginning, there were sets of chants or Mantras. Compiled, they were known as Samhitas or collections. The earliest of these collections was known as the Rig Samhita. The wisdom they contained was known as Veda or knowledge. Later, other collections came into being, such as Yajur and Sama and Atharva, containing in varying proportions the hymns of the Rig Samhita.
The Mantras were used in two ways. They were chanted during magical rituals known as Yagna that played a key role in society. Manuals that explained how these rituals had to be conducted were known as the Brahmanas, so called because the rituals helped invoke the Brahman, or the great mysterious force that animates the cosmos. The keepers of these manuals and performers of these rituals came to be known as Brahmins. Another set of people saw the Mantras rather differently. They felt that the hymns had to be heard and contemplated upon. Contemplation would reveal metaphysical truths about the cosmos.

How hunger and thirst run our lives
कर्तव्य की भावना से कार्य में उत्कृष्ठता (excellence)
क ई तरह की व्यवस्थाएँ हैं, जो हमें सचेत करती हैं कि हमें क्या करना है। माता-पिता, समाज, कानून आदि के प्रति हमारे कुछ उत्तरदायित्व होते हैं, कर्तव्य व व्यवहार के कुछ नियम होते हैं जिनका हमें पूर्ण रूप से पालन करना होता है, परन्तु बहुत से लोग अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति लापरवाह होते हैं, उन्हें अपने कर्तव्य पालन करना पसंद नहीं है ।
