and gave it to us, which would continue to guide this nation for
centuries to come. This framer of the Constitution has given
the responsibility of sacrificing many things for the society to
many people.

Everybody’s Messiah
The extent to which the atmosphere of awakening has

mindsets. Every great man who lived and died for the country
belongs to us.

everything as being bad. If we have to introduce Tulsidas, we
