Amid the historic centenary festivities of the All World Gayatri Family, Dev Sanskriti University’s convocation in Haridwar unfolded with majestic splendor. Renowned spiritual leader Juna Peethadheeshwar Swami Awadheshanand Giri arrived as chief guest, bestowing degrees and gold medals on 1,160 proud graduates, their faces beaming with accomplishment.
The ceremony resonated with jubilation—claps echoing as gold medalists from diverse fields crossed the stage. Parents watched teary-eyed, witnessing their children’s triumphs in an atmosphere charged with spiritual energy.
Speaking to the media post-event, Swami Giri passionately defended Sanatana Dharma as a grand, transformative force. He highlighted the Gayatri Family’s commitment to equality: no gender divide, no caste hierarchy—every soul a fragment of the divine.
‘Our culture thrives on oneness,’ he declared. ‘The same divine spark unites us all, elevating India above others.’ He commended the organization’s perpetual campaign for societal upliftment, fostering positivity and creativity.
On controversies over access to holy sites, he firmly advocated safeguarding their purity. Pilgrimage places embody deep faith and heritage; maintaining order and reverence there is paramount.
This convocation wasn’t just an academic rite—it symbolized a renaissance of values, blending modern education with ancient wisdom for a harmonious future.
