This law is applicable everywhere machines, economics, mathematics, society, inter personal relations. Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo Na Prachodayaat says that if the system is such that there is. Bhargo the system is without any inefficiency or disorder, the way Ishwar is. Devasya the source does not keep share for itself and only gives out back whatever is inputted into it. Dhiyo and Dheemahi come from same root word. Thus if we direct our output intellect 1. Those who have studied thermodynamics would have read about perpetual machines. The only reason they do not work is because there are inefficiencies in process of energy conversion. Lesser the inefficiency, more the time that the machine works.

Similarly, more we direct our attention to study of source of our knowledge the Vedas more the bliss we shall obtain for humanity. The recipe to get rid of all worries, all miseries, all doubts and all negative thoughts and challenges in life is thus very simply summarized in Gayatri Mantra. Simply think of the Ultimate, simply dedicate all thoughts, words and actions to Him alone. Put your best efforts and leave the rest to Him and He shall manage the rest in best possible manner as He is doing even right nowDoubt If we only keep thinking about Ishwar as per Gayatri, how do we manage our day to day tasks. For example, if instead of fighting in a battle, the soldier thinks of Ishwar will he not get killedA The doubt only comes when we misunderstand the characteristics of Ishwar. This problem as indicated would come only to those who consider Ishwar to be limited in time and space.
