 "RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat at a press conference in New Delhi/ Photo Sanjay K Sharma")
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday asserted that everyone in the country will have to work collectively to make India 'vishwa guru' (global teacher).
Addressing a gathering at Sant Maharshi Menhi Ashram in Bhagalpur, Bhagwat also said that people should refrain from feeding their egos and steer clear of materialism.
"Ancient teachings of saints should first be practised at home and later spread outside. The teachings of our saints should first be practised in our everyday life... that should be the priority.
"All of us, including the saints and seers, need to work collectively to make India 'vishwa guru'," the RSS chief said.
He advised people to always speak the truth.
"People should not feed their egos and steer clear of materialism. One should always stick to the truth. The world is an illusion, Brahma alone is the truth," Bhagwat added.
