In Hinduism there is a belief of Three Debts
of Gratitude know as RNatraya, which implies more of Dayittva (Responsibility) than Bahdyata
(Obligation). Every individual is born with three RNas namely Rishi RNa (Debt towards
Preceptors), Pitru RNa (Debt towards Ancestors) and Deva RNa (Debt towards Divinity).
Rishi RNa accumulates when an individual as a Brahmachari
(Student) acquires the knowledge passed on to him by his Guru. When the
individual uses that knowledge constructively for the welfare of the society or
if he passes on the knowledge to the generation next this Rishi RNa gets
discharged.
An individual owes his existence to his ancestors. As
a Grihasta it becomes his responsibility to extend the lineage by begetting
children and sustain the family by take care of his parents. Thus the Pitru RNa
is taken care off.
A Wiseman experiences God in Nature. This nature
emanated from God and nature is sustained by Him. Whatever we receive from
nature, is the due which we need to give back. Deva RNa is repaid when we nurture
the nature.
An individual is free from these three Debts of Gratitude when he gives back to the society, ancestry and nature. But there is
one RNa which he cannot repay, that is “Matru RNa” the Debt towards Mother and it is the highest RNa. Even taking care of her in her old age cannot dissolve it, unless Mother herself liberates us with her blessings.
In the times of Monarchy in India there were Kings
going on war to extend their supremacy. War takes away the life of many Sainik (Soldiers) and the Kings were the Ashrayadaata (Protector) of the soldier’s
family. In recent times we have Army which stand guarding our borders. In safe
guarding us from the potential enemies from across the border some of our army
men are martyred. Yes, Army does take care of their family but we the citizens accumulate what is called “Sainika RNa” for spending our day without fear and worry. We have to discharge our responsibility too in this regard.
In a most unfortunate incidence a soldier loses his
life and becomes a martyr. Army provides the family from Army Group
Insurance Fund, Army Wives Welfare Association, Army Officers Benevolent Fund
and the State Government also provides job guarantee to a family member and
Monetary Compensation. My friends whatever that the Army or Governments
(Central and State) is providing is to little to compensate for the LIFE of a solider. Though it is a wonderful gesture, will
the family of a martyr know that there are citizens who are concerned about the
loss of that life??? Our present Government has given us an opportunity to
discharge our “Sainika RNa” by sharing the responsibility of the families of
the martyred soldiers.
Friends, please visit this web site initiated by our beloved Pradan Sevak Modi ji to honour the martyred who served for our nation. Media is not
interested to enlighten us with such sites let us share to the maximum. https://bharatkeveer.gov.in
We can contribute any small amount directly to the
account of the martyred. One small percentage of amount that we spend at malls
can work wonders…… Nothing by force let it be from the feel…!!!
