In his opening address
Shri Mohan Ji Bhagwat mentioned that RSS events are termed as show of power by
many. However someone who has power need not display it. Sangh is marching
ahead by virtue of its inner strength. Such events are not meant for show of
power but for self introspection. These functions tend to inculcate self
discipline and self control. We need to realize that our destiny is in our
hands. Nobody else can determine it.

Real cause for losing freedom–diagnosed by RSS founder, Dr.Hedgewar
As the masses know, Dr.
Hedgewar was a true patriot right from his child hood. Independence and the
glory of Motherland were the only thoughts in his mind. Dr. ji associated his destiny with the destiny
of motherland. He participated in every activity which he thought will do well
for motherland. Call of motherland at
that time was to free her from the clutches of imperial rule. To accomplish the
same, some individuals followed path of armed revolution and some followed path
of non-violence. Some others were following the path of social transformation to
achieve the same end. Dr. Hedgewar volunteered for all such activities and he
had regular interaction with other volunteers.

In due course, he
realized that our civilization has a glorious past. We were strong and
talented. And yet a few aggressors managed to dethrone us. Even Dr. Ambedkar,
an architect of our constitution in his speeches conceded the fact that it was
due to our own selfish motives, differences and malafide intentions that we
succumbed in front of these aggressors. Mohan Bhagwat ji emphasized that no
constitution can save us till the time we propagate the feeling of fraternity
in the society. A united and skilled society is at the base of any transformation
towards glory.

We see what we
ourselves are. Any culture based discrimination is unfair. Indian culture
believes in taking everybody along. And this is what Hinduism stands for. We
need to hold together our diversity in order to show mankind the right path.

Good times and bad
times keep happening. If the society is stable and strong, it becomes immune to
circumstances. Be the changes you want to see. Crying is a pessimistic option.
To overcome circumstances, lead from the front before expecting others to
follow. To overcome darkness, just a small light is needed. You need to swim
through circumstances before conquering it.

What does the Sangh preach?
Once upon a time, in
Kerala there was a king named Udyan, who was sent to Acharya Parashuram’s Gurukul
for studies. After 12 years, it was time for exams. He was asked what he learnt
during the 12 years at Gurukulam. He said he can fight with 10000 people. But
immediately he realized his mistake.10000 people will not fight with him at the
same time. At one time, at the most 27 people who are in the innermost
periphery can fight with anyone. Therefore he was sent back to Gurukul. After 6
months, the same question was posed to him. This time he said he can fight well
with one person. He was again sent back to Gurukul. Again after 6 months, when
the same question was posed, he said we learnt arms not for aggression but for
self protection. He on his own will never take up arms for aggression, but if
someone tries to bother him or his masses, he can fight till his last breath.

This is precisely what
Sangh preaches. We need to first correct ourselves. Once we are strong within,
no one else can dare to harm us. What Sangh
does is, it worships the motherland, considers Bhagwa Dhwaj as its guru and
sings the glory of our motherland. It does not discriminate on the basis of
caste, color or creed. All are the sons/daughters of the same motherland.
Everybody is entitled to his position irrespective of caste and monetary
status. But everybody must follow egalitarian rules.

Sangh encourages masses
to find time out of daily schedule for nation building. It values family
bonding. It practices swadeshi. Good individuals in every nuke and corner of
country have the capability to transform this country. Hence character building
is imperative. The more religiously we do this job, the sooner our Motherland
will regain its glory. We need to visualize society as our family.
