Almora (Uttarakhand) [India], June 21 (ANI): Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Saturday said that reading the Srimad Bhagavad Gita helps bring stability to the mind, strengthens one’s thoughts and enables people to overcome fear and indecision.
The Chief Minister said the sacred text guides individuals towards righteousness and surrender to God, making decision-making easier during life’s challenges.
At Shrimad Bhagwat Katha organised at the Katha Sthal in Danya, Almora, Uttarakhand, the CM said, “I also read the Bhagwat from time to time. After reading it, a person’s mind becomes very stable. Their thoughts become stronger, and they no longer fear what lies outside, whether it’s external fear or internal fear.”
“There are so many dilemmas, obstacles, and sometimes when we face a state of indecision about whether to do something or not, the Srimad Bhagavatam shows us a path: follow the path of righteousness, surrendering everything to God. Decision-making becomes much easier,” he further added.
Earlier in the day, the Uttarakhand Chief Minister received a grand welcome from locals and party workers upon his arrival in the Danya area of the state’s Almora district.
A large number of people gathered at the venue to greet the Chief Minister and listen to his address. Supporters felicitated Dhami and expressed their support for the State government’s development agenda.
Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister highlighted various development projects being undertaken and outlined efforts aimed at improving infrastructure, public services, and overall socio-economic growth in the region.
In a message on the eve of International Yoga Day, he said that yoga is an invaluable heritage of India’s Sanatan culture.
According to a release, he noted that under the visionary leadership and efforts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, yoga has gained global recognition.
Yoga has shown the world the path to a healthy and positive lifestyle, mental balance, and spiritual growth. Today, millions of people across the majority of countries worldwide have made yoga an integral part of their daily lives.
Yoga has transcended geographical boundaries and emerged as a foundation for a strong society and a global medium for the welfare of humanity. (ANI)
