Gurudev – the messenger of Indian culture

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar revived Indian culture and spirituality among Indians and in many countries of the world. He is seen as the messenger of Indian culture. Gurudev worked to unite all the religions of the world through the World Peace Conference. While doing this, he worked to convince the world of the superiority of Indian thought after Swami Vivekananda, said Fadnavis.

Spirituality, along with science, is the core of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s thought. It is because of these considerations that India is seen as a very ancient civilization existing in the world, said the Deputy Chief Minister.

Stating that the record of Atharvashirsha recital was set in Pune, he said, since Pune is the seat of learning, it is obvious that the recitation of Atharvashirsha is done here and hence the record can be set only in Pune.

On this occasion, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said, in the city of Pune and everywhere in Maharashtra, devotion is celebrated through Ganeshotsav. A sharp intellect and tender emotions are the gifts of Indian culture. All countries of the world agree that meditation is essential for mental health. Ayurveda, Yoga, meditation, spiritual knowledge are the greatest wealth of India, he said.

At the beginning of the programme, a world record was set for the collective Atharvashirsha recitation. Dr Chitra from Asia Book of Records and India Book of Records and Dr Deepak Harke from World Book of London presented the certificate to Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
