Chapter 6:

-------------(10/2,Atharvaveda)

May the Lord of 'karma'(actions), 'bala'(strength), 'dirgh-aayu'(long life) and 'kalyaan'(welfare) make me pure.
This richa implies that if our thoughts, actions and deeds are pure then we are automatically blessed with added benefits like good health, strength, long life and most importantly benediction. Therefore we should try to keep ourselves pure and chaste.

May you acquire the 'same' knowledge, have mutual relationships based on equality. May your minds be enthused with the same 'sanskar'(consecrations). May you accomplish your duties just as your 'learned ancestors' did.
This 'richa' stresses the importance of unity. No institution can function smoothly if there is disunity among it's members.So, the significance of this richa is self- explanatory.

That,which I could have 'repaid' but my inability to do so has made me a 'debtor'. The reason for which I did this O Agni!(You are aware of it).May I now be able to get absolved of my 'debts'!
This particular richa warns that one should repay the loans he has taken as soon as possible. A debtor can never enjoy peace of mind and happiness as long as he is under the burden of debts. Moreover, It is considered a grave sin to die a debtor. We should therefore free ourselves from all debts before death so that our soul could rest in peace.

Chapter 7:

(39) BHADRAADADHI SHREYAH PREHI BRIHASPATIH PURAETAA TE ASTU |

-------------(8/1, Atharvaveda)

May you be blessed with that benediction which transcends worldly happiness, and may scholars show you the path !
It is natural for a man to deire for worldly joys and pleasures but his ultimate aim should be to attain benediction because only then he can enjoy eternal bliss. Only a knowledgeble teacher is capable of leading a man to the path of benediction hence one should always make constant efforts to seek such a Guru, who can lead him to the path of self-realization.

-------------(15/1,Atharvaveda)

O Lord! I accept that supreme knowledge, which is extraordinary, protector of all and which leads to the path of truth....... the knowledge which nourishes with 'thousand streams' and which is acquired by capable scholars with great efforts.
It is imperative that one should make sincere eforts to acquire that 'power'(knowledge) which has helped the learned ones to attain supreme status during ancient times. He should engage himself in self study to refine his intelligence and to acquire knowledge. Knowledge helps dormant intelligence to awake and become conscious which automatically brings so many additional advantages.

May our (husband's and wife's) eyes be full of 'love' as sweet as honey ! May our eyes be embellished with collyrium! May I dwell in your heart and let there be perfect mutual understanding!
This particular richa stresses the importance of mutual love and understanding between married couples for successful and happy married life.

Just as collyrium (Anjan) keeps the eyes healthy by removing the impurities, in the same manner we should make sincere efforts to purify our 'inner - vision' with the help of 'right- knowledge'.

-------------(1/3, Atharvaveda)

May you be protected by 'Gyan' (knowledge) and 'Vigyan'(specialised knowledge) ! May the one who is 'always awake' , 'omnipresent' and the 'supreme protector' protects you!
After having acquired 'knowledge' one should bring it into practice. Constant practice will help him in mastering it and acquiring specialised knowledge by learning from his mistakes and eliminating any flaw that might exist. Pseudo-knowledge that creates nothing except 'illusions' is a deception and extremly harmful. On the contary, 'true-knowledge' brings good health, strength and long life to a man. Therefore, we should continue making efforts by making best use of the above mentioned qualities-'gyan', ' vigyan' , fearlessness and alertness.

Start consuming this 'elixir of life'(medicinal herbs) so that you enjoy good health untill old age. I fill you up with it so that your 'life' and 'vital-force'(prana) are revitalised. May you keep away from 'ignorance' and excessive indulgence in sensual pleasures......and may remain untouched by death.
Here the richa is exhorting us to drink the elixir of life so that we become healthy and enjoy a long life. Those, who get attracted by ignorance and superficial worldly pleasures meet their ends early. In order to be blessed with a long life it is imperative that we become strong both mentally and physically . We should do all that makes our mind and body healthy and energetic.

Reform the 'fools' with the help of your 'tongue of fire' and devour all the meat consuming violent people.
This particular richa is of the view that ignorant people should be reformed and advised to quit their bad habits. One should not mind even using harsh language occassionally if it helps in serving the purpose.

-------------(4/2, Atharvaveda)

One, who is endowed with 'true-knowledge' is blessed with requisite wisdom necessary to differentiate between 'Satya' (truth) and 'Asatya' (untruth). This discriminatory intelligence is something without which we can not differentiate between good and evil. While saying this one has to keep in mind the fact that there is continuous tug-of-war going on between truth and untruth and hence one can easily understand how difficult this task is. Somdev protects all that is truthful and destroys all that is untruthful.
God protects all that is pure and truthful and destroys whatever is impure and untruthful. It is a well established fact that truth prevails ultimately.

O Indra, destroy all those lustful people behaving like birds.... angry ones behaving like wolves.... greedy ones behaving like vultures.... enticed ones like owls..... arrogant ones like eagles and the jealous ones behaving like dogs.
This particular richa exhorts us to destroy all those who are lustful, angry, greedy, enticed, proud and jealous.
We should strictly keep away from such people otherwise it will prove detrimental for our own spiritual growth.
