Staff Reporter

Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that any institution or person working for protection of cow progeny will be awarded by the State Government. The award will be instituted on the name after Acharya Vidyasagar. The Chief Minister was addressing Vishwa Ahinsa Diwas and Samuhik Kshamavani programme at lal Parade Ground on Sunday. Chouhan participated in non violence rally along with Acharya Vidyasagar and Muni Sangh.

The Chief Minister recalled Mahatma Gandhi and lal Bahadur Shastri. He said that Acharya Vidyasagar is not a saint of a particular community but a saint of entire humanity. He said that the one who overcomes self, is known as 'Mahaveer'. Weak and coward persons neither apologize nor forgive. Only bold and powerful person can seek apology and forgive others. He said that one has to learn from Maharaj how to live life. He said that only Guru can divert from wrong path by his guidance. Chouhan said that every animal and human being born in the universe has right to live.

Chouhan said the State Government and society both will work together for operation of gaushala and protection of cow progeny. Chouhan said that 'Mook Maati' written by Acharya Vidyasagar is being included in curriculum. He apologized for mistakes committed knowingly and unknowingly.

Acharya Vidyasagar called upon devotees to be true labourer and effort maker. The seer said, devotion of true labourer, penance and dedication can be learnt from a farmer's life. He does hard work and devotes his work to the ultimate truth.

Acharya said that non-violence is a negative term. It opposes violence. He said that ego is the root of all disorders. He said that there should be sense of non-violence every time. This is virtue of the powerful person. Quoting the reference of 'Mook Maati', he said all disorders are removed by forgiveness. Kshmavani is not one day event. This takes place every moment in the life. He said that we all are on the same path. He said that to be disciplined collectively is better than ruling others. He said that penance, devotion and endeavour should be with the life. Acharyai said, education is not a separate thing. It is about deeds and related with it. Western-oriented education would not be in favour of India.
