All the Rishes, the seers or the mystics of the Vedas were married. The words 'Sannyas' or 'Sannyasi' are not found anywhere written in the Vedas. These Rishes were masters of the art of war, were even capable of fighting battles and they did, so that Truth prevailed. Being spiritual means to fight for righteousness and justice for the weak while keeping faith in God. Being spiritual means not to submit oneself to the negative demonic forces in life.
