"Hindu Commandments in Seven Waves of thought"

 

 

The Convocation address delivered to the students when they were returning home from the Ancient Gurukulam:- The entire address systematically concludes in seven waves of thought each following the other with a scientific rhythm which is the melody of the Hindu thought.

 
 

1. Advices ruling one's own mode of living with reference to the society and oneself.

 

2. Regulating one's relationship with the last generation and the present elders.

 
 

3. Relationship with oneself and one's teacher.

 
 

4. One's attitude towards the learned and the wise in the society.

 

 

5. Charity and the 'law of Giving'.

 
 

6. Remedy for doubts regarding one's duty and conduct in life ,

 
 

7. And the last- Doubts regarding one's relationship with others falsely accused in the world.

 
 

Concluding these seven specific waves of progressive thoughts, the teacher asserts that these commandments are to be strictly followed by every true Hindu, if he is worth the name.
