Bhrigu Vishwa Shanti Message

Have we ever asked the question, "Does a river get tired of giving water to thirsty souls?", "Does earth ever get tired of people walking over it?", "Does fire ever get tired of people cooking over it?", "Does air ever get tired of blowing around in the form of wind or people breathing it to sustain their lives?", "Does space ever get tired of people using it to create something?". The answer is "No"

The five elements just keep on giving.Never tiring, always giving. Silence is their very nature in whatever activity they do. They do this activity irrespective of caste, creed, religion - practicing equality to all. Read More

RISHIKESH, India (Reuters) - In an ashram near the Ganges river in the Himalayan foothills, priest-turned-politician Sakshi Maharaj mimes rowing a boat to illustrate what will happen if Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government ignores Hindu nationalist demands.

"Modi will have to be a boatman: one oar must focus on the economy and the other must concentrate on the Hindu agenda," says Maharaj, clad in saffron robes and sitting cross-legged on a bed.

He twirls his bejewelled fingers in the air, explaining that otherwise the boat will spin in circles.

The Hindu priest, who has been charged with rioting and inciting communal violence, is the embodiment of hardline religious elements in Modi's party whose strident behaviour is dragging on the government's economic reform agenda.

In recent months, Maharaj has created uproar by describing Mahatma Gandhi's Hindu nationalist assassin as a patriot, saying Hindu women should give birth to four children to ensure the religion survives and by calling for Hindus who convert to Islam and Christianity to be given the death penalty.

For the first time since the election last year, some lawmakers in Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are rebelling against his focus on mending the economy and governance at the expense of promoting Hinduism.
