Bhopal: CM Dr. Mohan Yadav said that the diverse branches of Sanatan culture have a global presence, with Hindu culture spreading widely through these branches. He referred to this tradition as ‘temple culture,’ which serves as a cornerstone of its dissemination. Speaking at the Swaminarayan Temple in London on Wednesday, Dr. Yadav highlighted the growing reach of religious sects such as ISKCON and the Swaminarayan tradition. He emphasized the uniqueness of Sanatan Dharma, where 33 crore deities are worshiped in various forms, showcasing the richness and inclusivity of this ancient culture.
Dr. Yadav said that, while the paths may differ, they all ultimately lead to harmony. He noted that the Hindu community has embraced the guidance provided by its spiritual traditions. The principle of *Ahimsa Paramo Dharma* stems from the simple philosophy of ‘Jiyo aur Jeene Do’—to live and let live, fostering love for all living beings. He remarked that temple culture reflects the essence of humanity, while Sanatan culture is beautifully expressed through intricate stone and wooden sculptures.
