Gaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) : Adya Shankaracharya strived for establishment of Dharma. His efforts for preserving integrity of this country are laudable. Unfortunately, today’s youth and rulers have forgotten about the mission undertaken by Shankaracharya. Considering the condition of country and Dharma today, treading on the path shown by Shankaracharya and becoming active is very much essential. The above views were expressed by Colonel Ashok Kini, the Chief of ‘Faith Foundation’. He was speaking in a program held at Chaudhary Chhabildas School, Gaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) on the occasion of Kalady to Kedar pilgrimage. This pilgrimage has been organized to re-establish the ‘samadhi’ of Adya Shankaracharya damaged during natural calamity which hit Kedarnath (Uttarakhand).
