Hyderabad: ISKCON All India Vice President Mahaman Prabhuji said Sanatana Dharma, which is expanding rapidly across Western nations and several other countries, would eventually emerge as a mainstream global religion.
He made the remarks during the valedictory ceremony of an 11-day Bhagavad Gita summer training camp organised by ISKCON Kukatpally at DRS International School in Dulapally on Tuesday.
Addressing students and parents, Mahaman Prabhuji described the Bhagavad Gita as a guide to self-realisation that offers practical solutions to emotional, ethical, and day-to-day challenges.
He said the scripture serves not only as a religious text but also as a philosophical guide that helps individuals discover purpose, manage stress, and take informed decisions in life.
The ISKCON leader encouraged students to recite the Bhagavad Gita daily, stating that the practice improves concentration, stress management, and understanding of duty. He added that these qualities contribute to academic performance and personal development.
