Sadhguru calls India ‘land of seekers’, urges people to not dwell on past mistakes

Renowned mystic Sadhguru called upon the countrymen to not constantly dwell on past mistakes and find out how their ideology they believe in could be a solution for the many problems of this nation. In a message on 74th Independence Day, Sadhguru urged people to let their faith be a personal pursuit within themselves and let their caste be just about the “tapestry of variety of cultures” of this nation.

“Let us not use ideology, faith, caste and creed as a divisive force, as a way to fragment this nation,” he said.

Sadhguru said that the dreams of Bhavya Bharat are still burning in the minds of over a billion people, adding that the citizens must value and respect the diversity of the nation. He emphasised that the nation is formed on the basis of diversity in ideologies, faith, caste, ethnicity and not on the basis of sameness.

“In every way, we are the most colourful nation, and it's very important we stay this way,” he added.

Level playing field

Sadhguru said that the fundamental strength of Bharat is that we are a land of seekers - seekers of truth and liberation - and this spiritual thread is what keeps us together as a nation. He also called upon people to remind ourselves that our independence has been earned from with enormous amount of suffering from generations of people.
