New Delhi. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat has given advice in blunt words and said that in our own country there should be devotion for our own country only. There should not be any language like ‘you are torn to pieces’ here. Addressing a program organized in Sri Vijaypuram (Andaman and Nicobar) to mark the completion of 115 years of the poem ‘Sagar Pran Talmala’ written by Veer Savarkar, Mohan Bhagwat said, if we have to build the country of Savarkar ji’s dreams, then that dream should become our dream and to make that dream come true, the same kind of patriotism is needed. At that time there was a need to die for the country, today there is a need to live for the country.
Sarsanghchalak said that we have considered the whole of India as one nation. Our Constitution also says the same. How does separation and conflict happen over small matters in this India? How do we think? Savarkar never thought that I belong to Maharashtra, I belong to this caste. Whatever thoughts our patriots had, all of them were born in some caste, lived in some province, but all of them thought of the whole of India. Swami Ramtirtha used to say that I am India, if I move, the whole of India moves.
Bhagwat further said, patriotism in daily life, now there is no enemy in front of us, if we want to build our country, if we want to strengthen our country then self-reliance is necessary. It is worth thinking whether the children in our house know our own mother tongue or not. We have to give direction to our children to earn a lot but not spend it for themselves but for the country. Read whatever you want but thinking about what will be useful for the country. We will have to try to implement in our life the things that Savarkar ji worked for.
