‘Blessings of Maa Kaali with India…’: PM’s take on Goddess amid Mahua's remarks

Amid a raging controversy over the alleged insult by filmmaker Leena Manimekalai and TMC MP Mahua Moitra of Goddess Kaali, PM Narendra Modi said blessings of Goddess Kali are always with the country, which is moving ahead with a spiritual energy for the welfare of the world. He was virtually addressing the centenary celebrations of Swami Atmasthananda, organised by Ramakrishna Mission in Kolkata. In his speech PM referred to Swami Ramakrishna Paramahansa, the guru of Swami Vivekananda. "Swami Ramakrishna Paramhansa was one such saint who had a vision of Maa Kaali, who had surrendered his whole being at the feet of Maa Kaali. He used to say this whole world, everything is pervaded by the consciousness of the Goddess. This consciousness is visible in the Kali Puja of Bengal. This consciousness is visible in the faith of Bengal and the country," Modi said. Watch this video for more details.
