Blend of modernity, spirituality is major strength of India’s culture: Prez Murmu

Hyderabad, Dec 20 (PTI) President Droupadi Murmu on Saturday said that the country's spiritual heritage offers solutions to the world’s psychological, moral, and environmental problems.

Addressing a conference on ‘Timeless Wisdom of Bharat: Pathways of Peace and Progress’, organised by the Brahma Kumaris Shanti Sarovar to mark its 21st anniversary in Hyderabad, she stated that the blend of modernity and spirituality is a major strength of India’s culture.

"The feeling of 'vasudhaiva kutumbakam' -- the philosophy of treating the entire world as one family -- is the biggest need of the hour for world peace today," she said.

Murmu is here for her winter sojourn at the Rashtrapati Nilayam, one of the presidential retreats. PTI SJR SSK SJR SSK ADB
