“Our country’s welfare demands an organised, sustained movement to re-establish ethical and moral values - signified by the comprehensive term dharma so that the nation could regain its lost direction for a better future for the present generation and for posterity. To remain passive, though distressed at heart, in this hour of all-round crisis of character is a betrayal of national consciousness and failure in national duty.”

—Kanchi Kamakoti Jayendra Saraswati Swamigal
