A hymn of Atharva Veda says -

Agne samidha maharshi brihate jatvedase /
Sa me shraddham medham cha jatvedah prayacchatu //

illumined intelligence) and "Jatvedo medham asmasu dhehi" (Oh yajnagne! please make ‘medha’ steady within us).

Through the above mentioned holy citations, an attempt is being made to convey that one of the important objectives of such

large scale Ashvamedha yajnas is also to awaken the dormant genius of the masses. It is the genius of man which makes him

different from other living beings. It is on its basis that he, as a scientist, has explored the secrets of nature and is claiming to be

the controller of the fate of all the living beings. It is the miracle performed by the human genius (‘medha’), which has enabled

him to propagate several theories of philosophy, to pile up huge volumes of literature, to form the society and the methods of

its governance, and to transform this earth into such an elegant and well-developed structure of culture and civilization.

Possibly, this is the reason why the sages have been saying- ‘Na manushat hi shreshthataram kinchit’. (There is no one

superior to human beings in this world).

In spite of all this, that is, despite a huge potential store of genius filled within the human consciousness, it does not get a

chance to come out and show itself due to the pressure of evil tendencies embedded in subconscious layers of our psyches.

Normally, the wood floats on water. But if a huge stone is tied to it, it loses its property of floating and sinks in water. In spite

of being adorned with excellent qualities, a human being does not remain in a position to demonstrate his real identity once he

ties a rock of wickedness on his head. The shape of the society that we see today is due only to this anomaly. To fight the

prevailing undesirable trends/traditions and eliminate them, and at the same time to execute the programme of creating a new

golden era, is not becoming possible because both these tasks can be done only by the awakened geniuses – learned, refined

and intelligent persons. At the hour of need, such persons come forward and row the boat of the culture- society, safely past

the troubled waters. The effort that is needed to awaken such geniuses not only in the society or nation but also on a global

scale cannot be done by worldly or physical means. The desired results can be accomplished only through a well-planned

religious Anushthan conceived in the spiritual world.

The life of Param Pujya Gurudev is the life of a Mahayajnik who has consecrated each and every moment of his life in the

service of the awakening of divine culture. The events of eighty years of his life are an open book and amply demonstrate how

he was busy in achieving the aim of awakening the divine intelligence in society. At the crucial juncture of this transition period

when the violent storm of mass annihilation is giving the red signals of its ferocity, he awakened the will to work for ushering in

a new golden era. At present, when no one seems to be talking about the bright future, when the all-engulfing darkness is

reigning supreme he unambiguously assured that the Sun is going to rise in the East and declared openly that the twenty first

century is bringing the promised bright future.
