Speaking in the program, the Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister said that the Holy Gita is one such scripture among all the scriptures in which there is a solution to all the problems of man. There is nothing greater than knowledge in the world. Our Saint Mahatmas, after contemplation, have propagated spiritual knowledge and the Holy Gita is the only scripture in the world, in which there is the secret of life and the answer to the harem question that arises in the mind of man.
According to the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, the Mahabharata war took place in Kurukshetra for 18 days and the Gita also has 18 chapters. He said that in Jyotisar located on the land of Haryana, Lord Shri Krishna had given Nishkam Gyan to Arjuna. The land of Haryana is Dev Bhoomi and hence it is also called Hari Di Bhoomi. The dialogue between Lord Krishna and Arjuna in the Srimad Bhagavad Gita holds special significance.
The Agriculture Minister said that it is said in the Gita that a person should do his work with Nishkam Bhoomi. He should not worry about its results. If we work with Nishkam Bhoomi, then we will definitely get its results. The Prime Minister of the country Shri Narendra Modi, Chief Minister Shri Naib Singh Saini and Maharishi Gyananand Ji Maharaj are promoting the Gita in many countries of the world.
Every year, an international level Gita Jayanti is organized in Kurukshetra. In the same series, Gita Jayanti Mahotsav is being organized in Kurukshetra from 15th November to 5th December.
