ENARADA, Bhubaneshwar,July 15, 2013

The world is heading towards catastrophe because of the negation of values and ethics in the society, senseless destruction of natural wealth and environment and the faulty education system, said Swami Nischalananda Saraswati, HH the Sankaracharya of Gobardhan Pith, Puri, while addressing the students and faculties in KIIT University.

Citing the example of Uttarakhand the Shankaracharya cautioned that, unless we stop plundering the wealth of nature, extraction of minerals and disforestation, then we have to face concusses very soon.

Speaking about the education, Shankaracharya made a scathing attack on the western education and made it possible for the division of joint family, desertation of the villages.

The present day education gives more importance on building new cities as a result of which the villages are losing out, said HH Sankaracharya.

Sankaracharya was very critical of the governments and political parties, both the party in power and in the opposition are busy to achieve small games, but they are not strong enough to protect Indian territories, river Brahmaputra from China. While the British Government divided the country in to four divisions, the government of India has been dividing the country in to small states for narrow political game, he added.

Sankaracharya was in KIIT University today. He addressed 20,000 tribal students in KISS yesterday in KISS campus. Advising the young students not to run after money and fame, which is believed, is not true education, he said.

Lauding the effort of Dr. Achyuta Samanta, Founder, KIIT & KISS, HH Sankaracharya praised him for taking care of 20,000 poor children whom he said as the children of God.

HH was introduced to audience by Dr. A. Samanta where Swami Nirbikalpananda Saraswati, Swami Shiv Chidanad Saraswati, Santh Sanjojaka Swami Abhaidananda Saraswati, Dr. Amiya Mohapatry, Er. Prashant Acharya, secy. of Aditya Bahini Pt. Matru Prashad Mishra, Ritu Gupta, Jnana Bhushan Gupta, Ashok Pandey, Ashok Singh, Debendra Samal, Bijay Swain, Manoj Rath and Debendra Prusti were present on the occasion.
