NEW DELHI: RSS<\/a> chief Mohan Bhagwat<\/a> on Saturday said Hinduism believes in the unity of humanity, asserting that \u201cIf any Hindu thinks that there should be no Muslims in India, then he’s not a Hindu.\u201dAddressing the \u2018One World One Humanity\u2019 event at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Bhagwat said different religions may follow different paths, but humanity and truth remain one.\u201cWe come from a society that believes humanity is one. If any Hindu thinks that there should be no Muslims in India, then he’s not a Hindu\u2026.\u201d the RSS chief said.\u201cIf you want call yourself hindu than you must believe that all paths are leading to the same. And every human has a dignity. There is no difference between human beings,\u201d he added.Bhagwat said diversity must be protected while stressing the importance of unity. \u201cDiversity has to be protected as it is the rule of nature and ‘Unity is universal truth,\u201d he said.\u201cI am not a religious scholar, nor a religious authority like you, but I am working in a society which traditionally says that religions might be different, but humanity is one. Truth is one, and humanity is a product of that truth. So humanity is one,\u201d Bhagwat said.He added that while truth is one, it can be described in different ways depending on how people perceive it.\u201cThat truth is one truth, but it is described in many ways according to the describer. Because as human beings, we are prisoners of the software that has been created in our heads,\u201d he said.\u201cThere are many religions, and in today’s world, religions are largely defined by rituals. And to fit in a religious discipline, and to treat that path to divinity, this discipline of rituals is also necessary,\u201d he added.The event was organised by American Hindus for Engagement and Dialogue (AHEAD) and was described as a \u201clandmark Raksha Bandhan gathering\u201d.\u201cThe event carries a timeless and universal message: ‘The world is one family’. It calls upon us to look beyond artificial divisions and differences, recognise the bonds that unite humanity, and embrace a spirit of mutual respect, harmony, and oneness,\u201d the organisation said.The programme featured cultural presentations and keynote addresses centred on universal oneness and the Hindu philosophy of \u2018Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam\u2019, or the world is one family.Bhagwat arrived in the US earlier this week as part of the RSS’s centenary-year global outreach programme, which also includes visits to Canada and the UK.During his visit, he has met members of the Indian diaspora, Indian-American business leaders and community representatives.<\/p>\n
