Text 49] The Lord Slays the King of the Demons
171
vate yogaṁ proktavān aham avyayam vivasvān manave prāha:  “This instruction was given to Vivasvān, the sun-god, who in turn instructed his son Manu.” Manu gave the law known as  Manu-saṁhitā , which is full of directions based on  vaṃa  and  āśrama  concerning how to live as a human being. These are very scientific ways of life, but under the rule of demons like Hiraṇyakaśipu, human society breaks all these systems of law and order and gradually becomes lower and lower. Thus there is no peace in the world. The conclusion is that if we want real peace and order in the human society, we must follow the principles laid down by the  Manu-saṁhitā  and confirmed by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa.
