Understand the Purpose of Celebrating Festivals

Message for Students

Dear Students!

What for are all these festivals celebrated?

They are celebrated to remind us about God. People of all religions have festivals to celebrate. All religions teach only good things. Therefore, everyone should follow his religion and respect other religions. No religion is bad. It is the bad intellect which sees bad in other religions. So, rectify your intellect. When you have discriminatory intellect, you will see only oneness of all religions.
