'Guru was a great sage who transcended Sanatana Dharma'
-
Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has slammed the "organised effort" to portray social reformer and spiritual leader Sree Narayana Guru "as the advocate and proponent of Sanatana Dharma".
The Chief Minister claimed that Guru was a great sage who transcended Sanatana Dharma, dismantling its rigid framework and proclaiming a new-age dharma suited for modern times.
"There is an organised effort underway to portray Sree Narayana Guru as the advocate and proponent of Sanatana Dharma. However, Guru was neither an advocate nor a proponent of Sanatana Dharma," Vijayan said while inaugurating the 92nd Sivagiri Pilgrimage at Varkala on Tuesday.
