Attending the Dharma Mahasabha organised by Mahima cult saints at Joranda here on Wednesday as chief guest, RSS chief Mohan Bhagbat said there was a day when India was called as a council of golden birds.
“Students from other countries were coming to Nalanda and Takhyasila universities to get education for our decent educational system. But now, the time has changed. People are running for their personal gains and in accumulating more and more wealth instead of searching of truth,” Bhagbat said.
However, the truth and philosophy of Sanatan Dharma has not perished yet. Mahima Dharma which is one among the Sanatan Dharmas is engaged in preaching the people love for truth, equality and humanity, he asserted.
“Even though we have failed to teach our students, the glorious part of history of India is still India is surviving for the dedication of saints and their faith in truth,” Bhagbat added. Among others Raja Baba, Raghunath Baba, Abinas Baba, Madan Baba and Nityananda Baba spoke.
Earlier, Bhagbat garlanded the portrait of the youngest martyr of India Baji Rout at Bajichauk in Dhenkanal in presence of former Rajya Sabha MP Rudra Narayan Pany, BJP district president Bibhuti Bhusan Pradhan, former BJP presidents Naresh Chandra Mohapatra, Deepak Prasad Pattnaik, former MlA Krushna Chandra Patra, senior BJP leader Rama Chandra Patra, Krushna Chandra Sahoo and many others.
