“The one who bows down before the Constitution and follows it is a true patriot,” seer of Pejawar Mutt Sri Vishwaprasanna Tirtha Swami has said.
Speaking at the valedictory session of the 29th All India Madhva Philosophy Meet and Nyayasudha at Srinivas Garden in Hubballi on Sunday, the seer said: “Patriotism means living in accordance with the objectives of the Constitution. Independence Day, Republic Day and other national festivals are symbols of patriotism but they end the same day.”
The seer said that everyone should become a good citizen by indulging in the contemplation of God. “The One who has no lacunae is the Almighty. And, he can be called by any name. Bowing before him and praying means keeping bad habits away,” he said.
