Commentary
Bhāṣya
This is a new universal ritual: face north, remember gravity, remember the magnetic shield, then do duty. The ritual is grounded in realities that sustain life and orientation. It avoids idols and tribal symbols; it uses physics as common language. Facing north is not superstition; it is a deliberate cue: ‘I choose orientation over impulse.’ Feeling gravity is a bodily reminder: I am accountable; actions fall, consequences land. Remembering the field is a reminder: unseen structures protect life; unseen virtues protect society.
The hymn concludes with action: kartavye dharmam ācaret. Ritual becomes ethical engineering: it trains attention, then converts attention into duty.
