Deendayal Upadhyaya's 'Integral Humanism' remains globally relevant even after 6 decades: Mohan Bhagwat
JAipur, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on sat said that Deendayal Upadhyaya articulate the timeless ideas of Sanatan in the bodoni font circumstance by presenting them as ‘ intact Humanism’ or ‘Ekatma Manavvad’, a philosophy that remains as relevant to the world today as it was 60 years ago.Delivering the Deendayal Memorial Lecture organised by the Ekatma Manav Darshan Research and Development Foundation here, Bhagwat said the essence of Integral Humanism can be captured in a single word – ‘dharma’ – but clarified that the term does not refer to religion, sect or creed.“Dharma upholds everything – the path that ensures collective well-being. The world today needs to walk on the path of dharma as defined in Integral Humanism,” he said.According to a statement, the RSS chief noted that while lifestyles, food habits and clothing may have changed over the decades, the core of Sanatan thoughts has remained constant.“The foundation of Integral Humanism is the understanding that happiness is not outside us, but within. When we recognise this inner happiness, we realise that the world is interconnected,” Bhagwat said.He also stressed that the philosophy does not support extremism and is rooted in balance and harmony.“There are limits even to power. True progress lies in pursuing one's development while ensuring the welfare of all,” he said.Referring to rapid scientific advancements, Bhagwat said that while technology has expanded material comforts, it has not necessarily increased peace or contentment.“There are more medicines today, but are people healthier than before? Some illnesses arise from the medicines themselves,” he said.Bhagwat also pointed to global inequality, saying 4 per cent of the world's population uses nearly 80 per cent of its resources.“Despite India's long-standing diversity – in beliefs, practices and deities – its plurality has never been a cause of conflict but a reason for celebration,” the RSS chief said.“Across the world, people know that the body, mind and intellect seek happiness, but they do not know how to achieve harmony among them. India understands this,” Bhagwat said.The programme began with introductory remarks by Mahesh Sharma, chairperson of the Ekatma Manav Darshan Research and Development Foundation.This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
