"India must not only become a superpower but also Vishwa Guru": RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat calls for India to become a superpower and Vishwa Guru, emphasizing science, regional languages, and balanced development.

"India must not only become a superpower but also a Vishwa Guru. - Mohan Bhagwat"

Tirupati, December 26

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday attended the inaugural session of the Bharatiya Vigyan Sammelan at the National Sanskrit University in Tirupati and emphasised the need for India to overcome blind faith, promote knowledge in regional languages, and balance development.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu was also present at the event.

Speaking at the programme, Bhagwat said, "We have to ensure that people overcome old blind faiths, and that applies for those who are stuck in new blind faiths. The architecture of our old temples is such that they survived many disasters. We had been farming using traditional methods for the last 10,000 years, and the soil remained intact.

The RSS chief asserted that India must not only become a superpower but also a "Vishwa Guru".

"But now, due to the need to increase production, it has resulted in the 'Cancer Train' running from Punjab to Jaipur. India is destined to grow because it is the need of the hour. But India must not only become a superpower but also a Vishwa Guru."

On the importance of education and scientific awareness, Bhagwat added, "We have to ensure that knowledge reaches everyone. Learning in one's mother tongue is impactful. The knowledge of science must be taken to the common man in the different languages of India."

Praising the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister on development, Bhagwat also asserted, "What the CM (N Chandrababu Naidu) has said is important, development should not be such that two separate classes are created in the society."

I agree with the point about balancing development. We've seen the 'Cancer Train' and environmental damage. Becoming a superpower should not come at the cost of our people's health and our soil. Sustainable growth is the real goal.

The emphasis on mother tongue is crucial. How can a child in a Tamil or Telugu village grasp complex scientific concepts if forced to learn only in English? Let's invest in quality textbooks and teachers in all Indian languages.

While the sentiment is noble, I respectfully disagree with the framing. The term "Vishwa Guru" can sound paternalistic to other nations. Perhaps focusing on being a collaborative leader and knowledge partner is a more modern, inclusive approach.

True! Our temples, farming methods, yoga, Ayurveda—they all have a scientific base that the world is now recognizing. We need to shed both old superstitions *and* blind faith in Western models. Time for a Bharatiya model of development. 🙏

First, we need to fix basic issues: quality education for all, healthcare, and reducing the huge gap between rich and poor. A society with two separate classes can never be a Vishwa Guru. Action on the ground matters more than speeches.
