Shivaji Maharaj’s values everlasting, should be observed’
Nagpur: The everlasting inspiration provided by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj must be understood by people through his values, way of life and acts. In today’s world, his ideas should be emulated, the thinker Sumant Tekade said Wednesday.
He delivered a lecture on’ Shabdanchya Palikadle Shivrai,’ organized at the Scientific Society Hall, Laxmi Nagar, to commemorate Shivaji Jayanti according to’ tithi.’ The event was coordinated by Chhatrapati Seva Pratishthan and was named’ Shivjayanti Utsav.’ Officer pro-vice-chancellor Vinayak Deshpande of Nagpur University presided. Secretary of the company Sanjay Deshkar attended.
Tekade said “Shivaji Maharaj has instilled the spirit of fighting back in his army. Shivaji proved to be a leading figure in guerrilla warfare, under the slogan of destroying the opponent’s fighting power. Indians were able to endure agonizing torment inflicted on them by the Portuguese.
“Highlighting the parenting style of his mother Jijabai, Tekade said,” Molding children from an early age has been a practice. To Shivaji, Jijabai fostered a warrior’s qualities from a tender age. In the present world, we have failed to follow this tradition.
“He spoke of the time that Shivaji dedicated to inculcating knowledge, skills, and attitude. “Youngsters in Nagpur complain about the dearth of job opportunities. They should be given ample time to build personalities from their busy schedule. Even if in a specific line of work one begins at a lower level, the goal must be to reach the top with hard work and passion, “he added.
“Media and cinemas are not factual testimonials. They are all forms of entertainment and fun as the media allow for free speech and fictionalization of such events. History may be called an account that was written by contemporary people during a given period. Background and references are important information that applies to a particular topic, “he said.
To interact with historical facts one should read related books, he said.
He also spoke about how swarajya would be a means to uplift the last guy. In the end, Deshpande congratulated Atul Guru, an authority on Shivaji’s forts, and activist Datta Shirke for their efforts to spread the Chhatrapati’s ideals.
