On Sunday, Chief Mohan Bhagwat said that the Sangh's main intention is to form an organisation that can bring Hindu community together.
Addressing a public meeting in Burdwan, in West Bengal's West Burdwan district, the RSS chief further explained his thrust on Hindu unity.
“The society that is responsible for the country is the Hindu society. India is not just geography, whose size changes over time. India has its own nature.
"Those who thought that they could not live with that nature made their own country. Those who did not get separated from the country wanted the nature of India,” Bhagwat said. He further noted that Hindus have advanced over the years by embracing the diversity inherent in the world.
“Hindus move on accepting the diversity of the world,” he said. Speaking on the occasion, the RSS Chief said that Hindus recognise and respect the concept of “unity in diversity” since they believe that diversity is the beauty of unity.
“One has to live as an individual but not just as an individual. An individual is for the family, the family is for the society and the society is for the country. Every individual has his own identity. But that individuality should also be used for the progress of others. One who has progressed should help others to progress. There is the greatness of thought,” Bhagwat added.
According to the RSS Chief, there had been many rich people in the country. “But people of the country rarely speak about rich people. They speak of that personality who did not earn a single penny in his life. The name of that great personality is Swami Vivekananda,” Bhagwat said.
The RSS event on Sunday at Burdwan also faced an initial hurdle in police permission denial but proceeded following an approval given earlier this week by a single-judge bench under Justice Amrita Sinha.
