Abstract (Original Language): 
Human civilisation and culture which include literature, religion and fine arts, the creation of human heart, are as significant for man's meaningful existence as natural sciences. Sciences and Philosophy cannot replace religion. Religion is primarily a human enterprise and is concerned with the inner being or life of man and its fulfilment. True religion also possesses two important limbs i.e. its philosophy and its ritualistic injunctions. Philosophy is the theoretical aspect of religion which, with scientific and rational analysis, elucidates the why and the wherefore of life and the universe and contains a coherent system of thought for interpreting the Reality. We therefore have to take the valuable advice of our sages, Rishis and scriptures and try to live religion in the true sense of the term.
