  • (1888PressRelease) June 13, 2011 - Inaugurating a daylong conference on 'Importance of Health in Religion', Smt. Prof. Rajni Abbi ji, Mayor Delhi said that the word Dharma means to live together and the purpose of every religion is to uphold the Dharma or the society. She called on all religious leaders to work together in harmony with each other for the betterment of the society.

    The function was organized to commemorate the 86th Birth Anniversary of Late Acharya Sushil Muni Ji Maharaj. Over 350 people participated in the conference held at Acharya Sushil Muni Ashram in Defence Colony, New Delhi.
    Delivering a key note address, Padma Shri & Dr. B.C. Roy National Awardee, Dr. KK Aggarwal said that the philosophy of every religion is to provide a platform for physical, mental, social and spiritual health of an individual. Hinduism bases its philosophy on the concept of Lotus (Detached Attachment) and Tortoise (Withdrawal when needed). Islam is based on detached attachment and persistence. Jainism has based itself on Ahimsa, Christianity on confession and Buddhism on 'How to reduce sufferings'. Similarly, the Bahai faith and Yahudi religion are based on peace and inner happiness. Dr. Aggarwal further said that all rituals in all religions were essentially designed to keep a person healthy and happy.

    Presiding over the conference, Sardar Buta Singh ji, Former Union Home Minister, said that the basis of any religion is based on truthfulness.

    Acharya Dr. Sadhvi Sadhna Ji Maharaj, President, World Fellowship of Religions said that non-violence is a fundamental principle of any religion. Non-violence does not have to be in action but also in the thoughts.
    The Dharma Gurus who spoke on the occasion were Shri Imam Umar Ahmed Iliyasi ji, Mahamandaleshwar Swami Dayanand Saraswati ji, Head Granthi Gurudwara Raqab Ganj Sardar Hem Singh ji, Shri Fr. Emanuel Dyanic Dominic ji, Shri Sarvmangal Mata Ji, Shri Lama Lob Jung ji, Mahamandaleshwar Shri Sant Rasayni Babaji, Mahamandaleshwar Swami Pragyanand Ji, Egikle Isaac Malekar ji, Dr. A.K. Merchant ji, Shri Mahamantra Das Ji and Hath Yogi Kailash Nath ji.

    The Dharma Gurus in a collective statement through a resolution said "To live a healthy and happy life, one need to follow the path of non-violence, compassion, detached attachment, selfless work, positive thinking and charity. Everybody should consider the universe as a single family and spread the message of brotherhood in the society. We are all trustees of our assets. Our job is only to look after them till the day we die."

    The Dharma Gurus said that the basic purpose of our life is to pay for the unpaid debts of our past karmas. The very fact that basic purpose of our life is to face sufferings, every suffering should be taken as a period of experience and learning.

    Every adversity should be treated as an opportunity to do something in life. We should dedicate all our works to the Almighty God and work selflessly for the betterment of the society.
