One who is lacking in love for fellow beings will not secure God's Love...

One who is lacking in love
for fellow beings will not secure God's love.

Without love for God,
one will not have fear of sin.

In the absence of both of these,
a man will have no social morality.

Neethi means right conduct.
It implies right behaviour in harmony
with the conditions of the particular time, place and society.

You have to subordinate yourself
to the mores of the community.
You should not violate the norms of society.

Hence the ancient Indian scriptures
enjoined observance of social disciplines.
