V5 One should serve the interests of the society through body, speech and mind and enthuse his circle to do likewise. Commentary It may be noted that what is emphasised is actual conduct, practice, and not mere preaching. V6 One should build up ones own inner circle and make it prosper so that it may serve the interests of society and make it prosper also. Commentary Working for the welfare of ones own group is not for selfish ends but for prosperity of the entire society which is seen to be integral. ======= anu > Messenger - Communicate instantly..."Ping" > your friends today!
