Gods, the idea of ​​Shiva and Buddha… Know on which other issues Rahul Gandhi spoke in Texas

Senior Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi is currently on a three-day visit to the US. During this, while addressing students and academics at the University of Texas, Rahul discussed everything from unemployment and inflation to Shiva and Buddha.

While addressing the students at the University of Texas, Rahul Gandhi also talked about the meaning of the word ‘Devta’. Explaining the meaning of the word ‘Devta’, he said that who is a Devta? A Devta is a person whose inner feelings are exactly like his outer expression. It simply means that a person who has a clean heart and is completely transparent is a Devta.

Who is God?

Rahul said that if a person tells me everything that he thinks and expresses it openly, then he is a god. He is a god in the real sense of the word.

Rahul said that if we look at our historical heroes, you will find all of them extreme. Like if you look at Buddha, he represents extremes. You can look at Lord Ram and Mahatma Gandhi. Actually, the basic idea is the destruction of identity. To destroy your own ego and listen to others.

Rahul said that the interesting thing about our politics is how you suppress your ideas? How you suppress your fears, greed or ambitions and focus on the fears and ambitions of others.

He said that for me this is Indian politics and this is what defines Indian leaders. Similarly, Indian leaders are different from American leaders. American leaders say listen, we have to go there. I will take you there. On the other hand, Indian leaders challenge themselves. This is a different concept. In some ways, the Bharat Jodo Yatra was a challenge for me. A journey of 4000 kilometers. This made me think differently, I built a great relationship with the people.

What is Shiva?

Rahul Gandhi said that you know the idea of ​​Shiva? When they say that Shiva is the destroyer. Who is he destroying? Himself. That is the idea. He is destroying his ego, his structure and his beliefs. This is how the idea of ​​Indian politics has to move forward.

Let us tell you that Rahul Gandhi is on a three-day visit to America. On the first day of his US visit, on September 8, he interacted with students and academicians of the University of Texas in Dallas.
