  1. The Concept of Rina

  2. The concept of Rina is also a very important component of Hindu Social System. • To bring a healthy social order every individual of the society is to be socialized in such a way that he finds himself under obligation to fulfill responsibilities not only for his sake but also for his family, kith and kin and the society at large. • All these obligations are rina (debts) which an individual has to repay in his life time for his salvation. • The idea behind the theory of rina is to make the members of the society aware of their vast array of responsibilities and obligations. • Rina’s are debts of an individual by virtue of birth. https://edenias.com/
