The Unity Forum of the Indogenic religions sponsored by the London Sevashram Sangha Celebrated its 20th anniversary on Sunday 21st July 2019 at the London Buddhist Vihara in Chiswick, London W4 1UD
It was an impressive celebration with HH Swami Saswatanandaji Maharaj as Chief Guest. He is the Vice President of the Bharat sevashram sangha, founded by Jagadguru Acharya Swami Pranavanandaji Maharaj. The Swamiji was accompanied by a number of brother monks.
Inspiring talks were given by various speakers clearly showing how in different ways the teachings of the Indogenic religions lead their followers towards the goal of Global Oneness. They do not teach exclusiveness that divides and create conflicts but inclusiveness that leads to harmony. For that reason those who belong to them live in harmony and peace with others.
Within 20 years of OM DAY there has been a great change in the world and more and more people are turning to the teachings of the Indogenic religions because they find peace and happiness by practicing the principles they teach. Yoga, meditation, vegetarianism and cremation are some of the things that are accepted because of their positive values.
It is now reasonably clear that if we want to have a world in which everyone can live without fear, we have got to turn to the ancient teachings of the Rishis of India. It is a form of self-culture that refines the person and makes him more naturally pure and free. Otherwise everyone is living in a conditioned state, causing him to behave abnormally.
