________________ () As a matter of fact, fear of God is very essential. At present, the barbarism and mutual distrust in the world is due to the fact that people do not recognise the existence of God. Creatures of all sorts run out of limits when they do not fear anybody. The Vedas clearly mention that the Sun, Moon and the different planets run on their orbits due to the fear of God. The knowledge about God can be bad from the 'Smritis' and the books that tell us about this Power (which is not a subject of either physical or spiritual senses ), are known as Shastras. One, who has no fear and love of God, does not deserve to be trusted by anybody in this world. This fear of God is also essential for invoking among the people a fear of the kingly authority. By the grace of God a ray of hope has sparkled in my heart that the world would be able to enjoy peace and prosperity by acting up to the teaching of the 'Smritis', which are based on the great experiences of ‘Manu' and others.
