India Has To Use Science And Spirituality For World Peace: President Murmu

 


Amid the world’s geopolitical crisis, India has to use both science and spirituality for world peace, said President Droupadi Murmu on Thursday at the launch of the National Campaign on Rising India Through Spiritual Empowerment (RISE).

She said, our aim is that India should become a knowledge superpower. 

Addressing human development she added, “It is our aspiration that this knowledge should be used for sustainable development, for social harmony, for the upliftment of women and downtrodden sections, for the proper use of the energy of the youth and for the establishment of everlasting peace in the world”.

She also said that spirituality is the guiding light which can show the right path to the entire humanity. 

The President said that today we are facing an existential threat due to climate change. Conservation of the environment is also a kind of spiritual empowerment because a clean and healthy environment gives us peace. 

"This interrelationship of environment and spirituality is not a new thing for us. We have been worshipping trees, mountains and rivers for centuries. To bring peace to our life, we must protect the environment," she added.

Murmu said that in this era of uncertainty, along with safeguarding its national interests, India is also playing the role of a harbinger of peace in the world. 

According to its culture and tradition, our country is active in building a world order based on spirituality and morality, she added.
