Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday said social service done by Hindu spiritual gurus or saints in the southern region of the country was several times more than that of missionaries, however, he also added that service is not a matter of competition.
Speaking on the inaugural of Rashtriya Seva Sangam 2023 in Jaipur, Bhagwat said, “In southern states, our saints from the spiritual world did more social service than the missionaries.” “However, this isn’t a measure, service isn’t a competition,” he added.
Bhagwat said, “We know that people came from thousands of miles away and did social service but we didn’t know that we were already doing a lot of services before they came, we are still doing it and will continue to do so.”
