A grand event of Virat Hindu Sammelan was organized on Saturday at Chitrakoot Stadium in Vaishali Nagar area of Jaipur. The program started with the grand Kalash Yatra symbolizing social harmony by more than 700 Matrishakti. In the conference, attractive cultural presentations were given on topics like Panch Parivartan, social harmony, family enlightenment, Swadeshi, environmental protection and civil etiquette.
The main speaker of the program, Sarkaryavah Dattatreya Hosabale of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, said in his address that Hindutva is the foundation stone of universal brotherhood. If the Hindu society remains organized and strong, it will be able to show the path of unity and humanity to the entire world. He said that wherever Hindu society has reached, it has made a positive contribution to the upliftment of that country and society.
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam means the world is one family: Dattatreya Hosabale
Describing the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam as the core of Hindu life vision, he said that the world is one family and if there is a crisis in any corner of the world, the Hindu considers it as his problem. India has always given shelter to the victims, be it the Parsi community or the Tibetan community, India has accepted everyone.
Referring to Ramayana written by Maharishi Valmiki, he said that it is not just a story, but a guide to the ideal life of Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram. It is a privilege to be born in the sacred land of India where Shri Ram, Shri Krishna and Lord Shiva incarnated.
He said that Hindu philosophy sees God within every person. Namaste means- The God within me salutes the God within you. Worship of every form of nature, rivers, trees, animals and birds is an integral part of our culture. Today the world is talking about environmental protection, whereas Hindu society has been following the tradition of worshiping nature since ancient times. It is necessary to make nature conservation and promotion a part of lifestyle.
Yoga and Surya Namaskar belong to entire humanity, not to any religion: Dattatreya Hosabale
Referring to the global acceptance of Yoga and Surya Namaskar, he said that Yoga does not belong to any one community, but to the entire humanity. Emphasizing on social harmony, he clearly said that casteism and untouchability are not the identity of Hindu society. The tradition of Shri Ram adopting the boatman as his brother is an ideal example of our culture. Hindu society should not stand to suppress or exploit anyone, but to keep itself strong and organized. As long as we stand united, no one can harm us.
Describing the family system as the cornerstone of Indian culture, he said, if the family survives, India will survive. Good relations in the family, protection of life values and awareness of civic duties are essential for nation building. Every citizen should have a sense of indigenousness, self-reliance and pride towards their language and culture. The program concluded formally with Bharat Mata Aarti and national anthem. Thousands of citizens of the area participated in the event and gave the message of Hindu unity and nationalism.
