TRINIDAD, April 27, 2008: (by Paras Ramoutar) Suriname’s Vice-President, Ramdien Sardjoe has spoken of the clashes in the world society. He told the closing session of the Global Lord Hanuman Hindu Conference at the Dattatreya Yoga Centre on Saturday that the entire world is encountering clashes and a great crisis because of the lack of understanding and lack of confidence. “Lord Hanumanji’s life is presenting a great message to live on this earth in harmony, in cooperation and with love, peace and understanding,” Sardjoe told the overflowing assembly of devotees from T&T, India, Canada, USA, England and Holland.
Sardjoe said Lord Hanumanji is an ideal example for building a bridge to unity, oneness, for synthesis and for togetherness of all types of races, creeds, countries, cultures and communities. “This is because of the uniqueness of our Vedic Hindu Culture, as they work with unity in diversity and diversity in unity and unity in oneness. Thus, we can make a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-religious society, just as the rainbow brings together the beauty of many different colors,” he said. Sardjoe said that throughout the Hindu religious text, the Ramayana, one observes that whenever a vexing problem arose requiring diplomacy, Valmiki (the author) lauds Hanumanji as a confluence of integrity, valour, intelligence, strength, patience and wisdom.
