Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday unveiled the 'Statue of Dignity' of Swami Ramanujacharya in Ayodhya and said that our vedas, upanishads, and sacred teachings of Indian sages provide a new vision and inspire us towards public welfare.
Highlighting the spiritual and religious heritage of India, Yogi Adityanath said it was a matter of immense pride that after 120 years, the statue of Swami Ramanujacharya (statue of dignity) had been unveiled on the holy land of Lord Shri Rama. India was the land of infinite knowledge and wisdom taking forward the tradition of 'Vedas'. Ramanujacharya Ji's sacred teachings showed us the 'dvait marg' to avoid invaders.
He further stated that in every era, great souls, thinkers, philosophers, social reformers had been descending on our land to guide the country and society while their teachings had inspired generations.
"Today, India is proud of its culture, traditions and heritage. Be it the development of Mahakal in Ujjain, Kashi Vishwanath Corridor Dham, or the grand Ram Temple in Ayodhya. The new India is strengthening national unity, and is keeping our ancient identity and traditions alive", Yogi said.
The chief minister also urged the people to associate with the traditions of Sanatan Dharm and contribute towards the welfare of all and nation-building to realise the goal of 'Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat'.
