TEN PRINCIPLES OF ARYA SAMAJ

1. The primordial root of all true knowledge and objects made known by the true knowledge is the supreme God.

2.God is self-existence, intelligence and bliss personified. He is devoid of form, omnipotent, just, benevolent, eternal, infinite, unchangeable, without a beginning, incomparable, support of all from within, undecaying, imperishable, fearless, holy and the maker of the universe. To him alone is worship due.

3.The Veda is the script of all true knowledge. It is the paramount duty of every Arya to learn and to teach the Veda (God’s knowledge), to hear it, read and recite it to others.

4. We shall ever be ready to embrace truth and to forsake untruth.

5. All acts should be done in accordance with the conduct of life after deliberating what is right and wrong.

6. The prime object of the Arya Samaj is to do good to the world, that is to promote the physical, spiritual, and social good of every sentient being.

7. Our conduct towards all should be guided by love, righteousness and justice.

8. We should make efforts to dispel nescience and promote knowledge.

9. No one should be content with promoting his good only; on the contrary, he should look for his good in promoting the good of all.

10. All men should subordinate themselves to the discipline of the society, calculated to promote the well-being of all; and yet should be free in regard to the discipline meant for individual well-being.
