Nagpur, 25 Apr (HS): “One has to understand Bharat and become Bharat to

perform puja of Bharatmata”, said RSS Sarsanghachalak Dr Mohan Bhagwat.

Dr Bhagwat performed Bhoomipujan of Bharatmata Shakti Sthal in the

premises of the National Cancer Institute on Friday. Juna Akhada Peethadhishwar

Acharya Mahamandaleshwar Swami Avadheshanand Giri, Swami Govind Giri Maharaj,

Swami Mitranand Maharaj of Chinmay Mission, Dhrendra Krishna Shastri of

Bageshwar Dham, Sadhvi Rutumbhara, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, Chief Minister

Devendra Fadnavis, former Sarkaryavah Bhaiyyaji Joshi, Revenue Minister

Chandrashekhar Bawankule, Nagpur’s Mayor Neeta Thakre were present.

Nothing can be achieved with ‘shakti’ (power). Even for establishing truth

in the world ‘Shakti’ was required. In Bharat this Shakti is lacking, Dr

Bhagwat said Bharatdurga Mandir will inspire entire nation to perform puja of

Shakti and shed away the mentality of slavery in personal life and national

spirit, he added. He expressed hope that it will begin from small actions by

all.

People have doubts whether Bharat will become the ‘Vishvaguru’. The

doubts were also prevalent about erection of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, but was

established due to strong will power. By following the concept of Bharatdurga by

every Indian becoming ‘Vishaguru’ will be also realised and the nation will

regain its historical pride and prestige, Dr Bhagwat said.

Swami Avadheshanand Giri said Bhratdurga Mandir will be the 52nd

Shaktisthal in India. Sadhvi Rutumbhara spoke about division in society and

appealed to all to come toghether. Dhirendra Krishna Shastri said the

Bharatdurga Mandir will make the nation stronger. Swami Govind Giri underlined

the need to stand strong against injustice and the work will remain incomplete

till establishment of Ram Rajya.

The Bharatdurga Shakti Sthal has been established by

Dr Abaji Thatte Service and Research Trust.
