Ramnathi, June 21 (Corr.) – Crores of Hindus have given their lives to protect this land of India. If this is the case, how can we hand over pieces of this land to other religions? Indian traditions and culture have been created by our great Sages for the benefit of mankind. The Hindu culture is to first salute the earth, salute the Sun after waking up. Hindu Dharma teaches that before plucking a flower, one should seek permission from the tree. How can the environment deteriorate in such a culture? Indian culture basically teaches conservation of environment. In the year 2021-22, India exported 11 lakh 75 thousand metric tons of beef. This is against our Dharma and scriptures. In our culture we are taught to offer fodder to the cattle. Had our children been taught to offer fodder to the cows, Hindu girls would not have run away with cattle slaughterers. If Hindus had taught their own culture to their children, incidents of love jihad would not have happened. Hindus should teach Indian culture to their children. Mrs. Meenakshi Sharan, the founder of ‘Ayodhya Foundation’, asserted that Hindus should understand the scriptures and act accordingly. She was addressing the audience on Day 6 (on 21.6.2023) of the Vaishvik Hindu Rashtra Mahotsav being held here.
