Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s participation in International Geeta Mahotsav

A large number of saints, elders and children were present in this program. Everyone recited Geeta together. During the program, the CM said that today the state will also get the gift of Geeta Bhavan.
Geeta is the supreme scripture and got respect in education policy.
CM Mohan Yadav said that Geeta is the biggest holy book and every knowledge of life is present in it. Madhya Pradesh government is celebrating International Geeta Mahotsav, it is a matter of pride. He told that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a new education policy came in 2020, after which Geeta was given special importance in the curriculum. He said that we get deep messages of life from the pastimes of Lord Krishna.
Lord Krishna inspired love and unity
CM Yadav said that after killing Kansa 5 thousand years ago, Lord Krishna came to Ujjain for education. In Sandipani Ashram, everyone, rich and poor, got education equally. Both Krishna and Sudama studied together there. This example taught the society about unity, love and equality. He said that Lord Krishna and his parents faced many difficulties, but they struggled and emerged victorious in every difficulty. The power to smile in difficult times comes only from Lord Krishna.
Message of keeping education paramount
The Chief Minister said that after killing Kansa, Lord Krishna gave importance to education instead of power or chair. This is a lesson for everyone. Sandipani Ashram taught Krishna how to move forward on the path of action by smiling through challenges.
He said that death of every person born is certain, hence one should follow the path of religion. Lord Krishna showed the whole world that whenever unrighteousness increases, God incarnates to protect religion and humanity.
Lord Krishna’s message of Karmaism
CM Yadav said that God allowed his army to fight with the Kauravas, where many brave warriors were killed. This incident gives a big message of Karmaism. Lord Krishna neither gave the throne of Dwarka to his son nor gave any privilege to anyone. He is a symbol of democracy who carried forward the principle of “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”.
