The society of the old that was like a joint family and the present day divided society

In the olden days, society had virtues such as Sattvikata (Spiritual purity), mutual understanding, emotion of love, and so on. As a result, no efforts were required to maintain social well-being. Presently, society is not imparted education on Dharma which develops these virtues; consequently, a lame effort is being made to maintain the social order by taking help of law.
