God,who is all powerful,is infinitely merciful;but as one who has to uphold Moral law,it becomes His duty to punish those who violate it.The Divinity's duty is to maintain the stability of social order.The vedic commands take care of the welfare of the human being and are ever vigilant directing the people to follow the scientific and rational path.
The God of the Vedas is beyond our thought and words,yet He is made comprehensible to the human mind.A Unique feature of the Vedas is its adoption of humanistic approach to abstract and difficult subjects.In a lecture,Sri Agnihotram Ramanuja Thatchariar said according to the Rig Veda, not even a small particle can move without God.Religion should first understand the problems of man and prescribe a scheme for his good life here.In this respect,the approach of the Vedas is complete.Social,political and economic problems of life have been taken into account by the Vedas and a scheme has been framed to attain prosperity in all walks of life.With this, the common man's mind is fully satisfied.
Vedic religion, Philosophy and Culture are based on the Rig Veda only.In the Rig Veda mantras,Gods are not only given human forms but even human attributes and functions.Vedic religion brings God nearer to man.From the common man's point of view,religion is practical while at the intellectual's level,it is pragmatic.Through the adoption of vedic religion,divine consciousness can easily be kept at all times,even in the material world.
