India needs to nurture the knowledge of the Vedas and the ancient language of Sanskrit to become a ‘vishwa guru’, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat said.
India needs to nurture the knowledge of the Vedas and the ancient language of Sanskrit to become a ' vishwa guru', Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat said on April 23.
He said Indian culture was not orthodox but changed with time and was not one that told us "what to eat and what not to eat".
India was created on the values of the Vedas, which have been followed by generation after generation, Mr. Bhagwat said at the 'Ved Sanskrit Gyan Gaurav Samarambh' event organised by Shree Bhagwan Yagyavalkya Vedtatvagyan Yogashram Trust in Mudeti village in Sabarkantha.
"Therefore, today's India has to grow but not to become a superpower like America, China and Russia that wield power. We have to become a country which can offer answers to the problems plaguing the world today. We have to become a country which can show the world the path of peace, love and prosperity through right conduct," Mr. Bhagwat said.
India is a country that believes in propagating ' dharma', uniting everyone and becoming a vishwa guru, he said, adding "victory means dharma vijay".
"That is why it is necessary to nurture the knowledge of the Vedas or Ved vigyan and culture [ sanskriti]. All this knowledge is in Sanskrit. Therefore, it is necessary to have the influence of Sanskrit. If we know to speak our mother tongues well, then we can learn 40 per cent of Sanskrit," he claimed.
Mr. Bhagwat also said experts believe many concepts of science as well as mathematics are easy to learn if one has the knowledge of Sanskrit and music.
