The text states that a human body is attained 'by the strength of infinite merit.' How does this concept relate to the prescribed purpose of living happily yet alertly?

In Chapter 14, the Shri Sai Satcharitra establishes a direct link between the rarity of human birth and its higher purpose. The assertion that a human body is gained "by the strength of infinite merit" underscores its immense value and suggests it is not meant for trivial pursuits. Because this form of life is so precious, its purpose is defined as being able to "live happily in the world but always remain alert and make this life meaningful." This alertness refers to spiritual awareness. The merit that earned the human body finds its true fulfillment in pursuing this spiritual purpose, making one "exceptionally fortunate."
