"God is within us" ... "Life is a play where every person must play ":::: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat does his way of Diplomacy ... tells UK ::: "England itself is coming to the stage of division, but we will not be divided"

"We are all actors in the drama of life and have to play our parts, and our true self emerges when the drama ends" -- Mohan Bhagwat   

He said Faith that exists in Bharat is based on direct perception (knowledge) and evidence. 

'Selfishness and ego cause conflict in world', says RSS Chief.

A big point .... made by RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.

The 'world model' based on western theories was bound to fail.

While the world runs on faith and belief, Bharat is the land of faith with men of action and logic, said Bhagwat. 

Referring to former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, Bhagwat pointed out that India proved him wrong by remaining united after British rule ended.

"Winston Churchill once said that after independence (from British rule), you (India) will not be able to survive and will be divided, but this did not happen. Now England itself is coming to the stage of division, but we will not be divided. 

We will move forward. 

We were once divided, but we will unite that again," he said. 

While the world runs on faith and belief, Bharat is the land of faith with men of action and logic, he said.

The Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh chief said that the world was conflict-free when India was the leader of the world for 3,000 years.    

Bhagwat says developing India proving doubters wrong.  

Addressing a book release function in Indore, Bhagwat also said that -- personal interests were responsible for conflicts in the world, which created all the problems.  

Bhagwat highlighted the cultural significance of faith, saying it is not imaginary but experiential. 

“Faith and belief have been given tangible forms as Bhavani and Shankar. 

God is within us, and without faith, we cannot truly perceive Him,” he said.  

The RSS chief drew attention to the need for knowledge combined with action, citing the story of the hawk and the pigeon. 

'Being knowledgeable without action creates problems. 

Life is a play where every person must play their role, but ultimately, the soul defines our true identity,' he added.

Minister Prahlad Patel on Narmada Parikrama:

Patel shared his experiences of the Narmada Parikrama, saying he initially hesitated to publish the book to avoid “selling” Narmada. “Every penny from the book will go towards cow service and supporting pilgrims,” he said.

The Narmada is considered a mother and rivers are India’s heritage, Patel said.  

Narmada Parikrama is an ancient and sacred pilgrimage in Hinduism involving a circumambulation of the Narmada River in India, covering its entire length on both banks. 

This spiritually significant journey is about 3,000-3,500 kilometers long and takes devotees through three Indian states.

- Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Gujarat. 

Pilgrims embark on this rigorous journey on foot, by vehicle, or in parts, to achieve spiritual purification, gain merit, and attain Moksha. 

The pilgrimage starts at the river's origin, Amarkantak, and includes visits to sacred sites like 

-- Omkareshwar, Maheshwar, and Harsiddhi Mata Temple.
