Nature has gifted us with all that we want and that we need. Due to scientific development, the basic needs of mankind are fulfilled in abundance. Materials and commodities necessary for a happy and convenient living are available in surplus in Nature. All resources are provided by Nature for the survival, happiness and peace of an individual. In fact, there is no defect in Nature. Even then, there is a question of peace in an individual's life as well as in the society and also between different nations. Why does this happen? Is it due to the lack of resources in Nature? Absolutely not. There is nothing to blame Nature on this.

Vethathiri Maharishi elucidates that , in spite of this abundance and plenitude, why does man commit sins and why does he suffer? You should realise the cause for this. Each and everyone is born in this world to live. When there is obstruction by any means in getting the needs, the life and the purpose of life is getting obstructed.  The purpose of the birth of man is to develop his own potential to fullness, to perfection, with his sixth sense which is Nature's gift to man. Being such a wonderfully gifted man, what else does he need more of?

Why do we commit wrong ?

Sin is a result produced by man's activities, which leads him to pain, misery and problems in life.Wrong deeds are committed by Men, and at the same time, one should also realise that the individual alone can not be responsible for the problems prevailing, not only in his own life but also in the society. Since his habits come down hereditarily from his earlier animal life.

If he goes on committing sin, then it becomes a habit again for him. What should he do to change this? Vethathiri Maharishi provides efficient and simple solutions, he says that man has to develop his knowledge and consciousness, so as to realise what is right and what is wrong. As said by Maharishi in a Tamil Verse: "There is no one who commits sins by his own instigation. The society itself is responsible for the current criminal mindset and behaviour of any individual".

The Potent Sixth Sense The six sense human has come from a fifth sensed animal. If we realise and observe from the plants which have a single sense to the animals that possess five senses, except few, the rest kill other lives for their food. This is the nature of animals as their survival depends on them. The cause is due to their inability to cultivate and get their own food. Only man, through Science and Technology, can transform the natural resources into a wide array of articles, commodities and facilities for convenient and happy living. This is the difference between man and animal. Man alone is able to transform the natural resources, for better utility, save them for the future and share them with others with divine love and compassion.

The potential of the sixth sense gave humans the ability to think which animals don't have. Man's ability to think distinguishes him from animals. The absence of the six senses has compelled the animals to do violent acts, in their effort of survival. As man has evolved from animals, the animals imprints of mental and physical violent behavioural characteristics have been transmitted to the man and are persisting within him from generation to generation even upto today.
