Mysore/Mysuru: Udupi's Sri Krishnapura Mutt Seer Vidyasagar Thirtha Swamiji was accorded a grand welcome under the joint aegis of Sri Krishna Trust and Sri Krishna Mitramandali, on his arrival at Saraswathipuram's Srikrishnadhama here on Saturday. Speaking on the occasion, Vidyasagar Thirtha Swamiji said that the people of the country were battered by the effects of the deadly COVID pandemic for the past two years.
Stressing on the need for everyone to pray for freeing the population from the clutches of the pandemic as well as pray for the country's growth and prosperity on all fronts, he said that the age old tradition of building a 'Kattige Ratha' (a Chariot made of wood) was re-started in June last with a purpose of bringing good for everyone, in these troubled times of the pandemic.
