Hindu religion has solution to all problems in world: Amit Shah

June 29, 2015

Ahmedabad, Jun 28: BJP president Amit Shah today said Hindu religion has solution for all the problems in the world.amit

"Hindu religion has solutions for all the problems of the world... I am not saying this because I am born Hindu," Shah said at Gujarat University convention centre, while unveiling former President A P J Abdul Kalam's book 'Transcendence: My Spiritual Experiences with Pramukh Swamiji'.

"When I faced difficulty for two years, I visited each and every religious centre in India. In that period, I sought blessings from all the 'jyotirlings' and 'shaktipeeths' of India, except Somnath temple (in Gujarat)," Shah said referring to the two years that he was barred from entering Gujarat due to legal proceedings in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh encounter case.

In December last year, Shah was acquitted in the Sohrabuddin encounter case.

"That was the time when I was not able to do my activities... Perhaps God made me seek his blessings in my youth," the BJP chief said.

He added that the religious leader of Swaminarayan sect, Pramukh Swami, has given a new lease of life to Hindu tradition with the powers of saints like Shankaracharya had done with the tradition of 'akhadas'.

Speaking on the event, Governor of Karnataka Vajubhai Vala said that religion was more important than the state. "'Dharma danda' is much more important than 'Raj danda' and it can make people happy," said Vala.

Recounting an incident when he was the Mayor of Rajkot in 1980s, Vala said he chose to felicitate religious leader Pramukh Swami by going against the local administration. "This is in my blood and this is in the 'sanskaras' of RSS that could lead me to even vacate the post of a Mayor," Vala added.

On the book written by Kalam, Vala said he feels that one saint is giving his opinions for the other saint. Praising Kalam, Gujarat Governor O P Kohli said his personality is unique, as the scientist has saintly qualities. The event was attended by Gujarat Ministers Saurabh Patel and Bhupendrasinh Chudasma and other senior BJP leaders.
