VEDIK LIFESTYLE OFFERS 
 NON-STRESS LIFE THROUGH 
 DHARm and LIFE aaSRm SUPPORT 
SCIENCES OF CREATION AND LIFE called
veD stipulates that it is parents
DHARm to nourish and bring-up child 
with all its educational needs through its 
bRH`mchaaARy aaSRm. This nourishment and education should be such 
that the child grows into an adult who then becomes a 
gRUHs`TH meaning a married adult with his own household. By
DHARm parents are expected also to 
assist the child who has become a gRUHs`TH 
with continuing life education and partial finances to start his own 
household till the child can fully support himself.  
As a gRUHs`TH male, it will be his
sv-DHARm to support his wife and 
children, parents who need support and all those who need support in life 
because of their involuntary and nature-based inability to provide life support 
for themselves.  
As per veD, 
gRUHs`TH aaSRm supports the remaining 
4 aaSRm of life which are: 
  -  bRH`mchaaARy-aaSRm, 
 
  - vnspr-aaSRm which follows 
  gRUHsTH aaSRm after one's children are 
  married and settled and 
 
  - sNn`yaas-aaSRm which follows 
  vnspr-aaSRm when one becomes old enough around 70 years of age to retire from 
  life activities and devote time in pursuit of 
  aat`maa-GNaan or self-knowledge and search for meaning of life 
  lived to that stage. 
 
 
In western civilization a child on attaining 17 years of age is expected to 
support himself. After 17 years of age a child literally severs the support 
system bond with its parents. And due this severance, the child-parent 
relationship bond also gradually evaporates. This also creates the notion in the 
child that as an adult he/she is not obligated to provide any support to anybody 
in the same way that he/she has been left to fend for himself/herself. This 
creates the "me" world where each person becomes selfish to fend for oneself.
 
In western civilizations, in current times dating back to about 50 years. 
those persons who are unable to provide their own life support systems depend on 
various government agencies funded by tax systems.  
Various social studies in all western countries have proven that this "me and 
them" type of life support system creates a very stressful life during student 
life, start of an employment, start of a married life, through out married life, 
during raising children and then in retirement life.  
Whereas in veDik lifestyle the 
support system continues in all 4 aaSRm 
in an interactive and integrated and continual manner. This lifestyle 
methodology assures that every human is assured through the family and
aaSRm system of life supports in any 
stage of life as explained above. In this veDik 
lifestyle everyone follows DHARm 
to support oneself and others who need life support. This way well-being 
and welfare in life is assured sustainance and enhancement of overall life 
quality including well-being and welfare by removing the stresses.
