Bṛhaspati is the priest of the heavenly planets. Vedic knowledge was received in logical order by the great sages through Bṛhaspati for the benefit of human society, not only on this planet, but throughout the universes. In other words, Vedic knowledge is considered one of the necessities for human society.

In Kali-yuga, if this Vedic mahā-mantra is chanted regularly and heard regularly by the devotional process of śravaṇaṁ kīrtanam ([[SB 7.5.23]]), it will purify all societies, and thus humanity will be happy both materially and spiritually. | Bṛhaspati is the priest of the heavenly planets.
