RSS wants an Organisation for Entire Hindu Society: Mohan Bhagwat

Kolkata: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Sunday that the main intention of the Sangh is to create an organisation for the united Hindu society.

The RSS Chief, while speaking at a public meeting at Burdwan in the West Burdwan district of West Bengal, also explained why he is emphasising the unity of Hindu society.

"The society that is responsible for the country is the Hindu society. India is not just geography, whose size changes over time. India has its own nature. Those who thought that they could not live with that nature made their own country. Those who did not get separated from the country wanted the nature of India," Bhagwat said. He also added that Hindus had moved forward for years by accepting the diversity of the world.

"Hindus move on accepting the diversity of the world," he said.

The RSS Chief said that Hindus recognise and respect the concept of "unity in diversity" since they believe that diversity is the beauty of unity.

"One has to live as an individual but not just as an individual. An individual is for the family, the family is for the society and the society is for the country. Every individual has his own identity. But that individuality should also be used for the progress of others. One who has progressed should help others to progress. There is the greatness of thought," Bhagwat added.

"India is not just a geography, that can change time to time but it considered India when there is a nature temperament to it, and India has that, the ones who thought they cannot live with that nature and temperament made their own country (Pakistan)," Bhagwat remarked.

Highlighting the nature of India being from an ancient time, and how it is even older than the formation of an independent India.

"The ones who did not go, it makes sense that they all want the temperament of India, and that temperament is not of today, nor is it made on August 15, 1947 (Indian Independence), it is even more ancient than that." the RSS chief said.

Bhagwat said that the world has finally realised that Hindus have always accepted the diversity of the world.

When the world's history opened its eyes to this terrain, called the Indo-Iranian plate in Google, then they found a similar temperament across the region, which is that Hindus move forward by accepting the diversity of the world," he said.

"Everyone has their own specific expertise, Hindus know that all the expertise is the invention of truth and it is one truth. Shrushti ke charachar jagat mein, jad chetan sab mein wohi ek hai jo nahi badalta, jo pehele bhi tha, aaj bhi hai, aur kal bhi rahega, woh shashwat hai (In nature's pastures, in its roots and everything, there one which is unchanging, who was there before, is there today, and will be there tomorrow, that is eternal). Everything else keeps changing," he added.

The RSS meeting at Burdwan on Sunday faced initial hurdles as the police permission for it was denied. However, later the meeting was conducted following the permission of the single-judge bench of Justice Amrita Sinha earlier this week. (Agencies)
