RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on dharma and Indian traditions

Overview

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat has delivered a series of addresses emphasizing the role of ‘dharma’ in individual conduct and national identity.

In Ujjain, Bhagwat defined dharma as a lifelong guide for righteousness and duty, distinguishing it from Western religious concepts. He described it as a principle embedded in India’s civilizational DNA that promotes inclusivity and environmental protection.

Expanding on this theme in Mumbai, Bhagwat asserted that the purpose of the nation is inseparable from dharma. He argued that India’s ancient knowledge traditions can resolve modern global tensions, such as the conflict between development and environmentalism, and the friction between individual freedom and family stability. He characterized the preservation of these spiritual traditions as a service to humanity.
