Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, the head of Bageshwar Dham, in an interview to ABP News, responded to his foreign tours and questions related to personal life. Shastri, who recently returned from Uganda Yatra, said that the culture and humanity there is amazing, while some people in India object to their presence. He also told that the Prime Minister of Uganda has invited him to build a monastery, which is a special initiative in itself.

Explained the experience of the tour of Uganda

Dhirendra Shastri shared the experiences of the tour of Uganda, saying that nature is green and culture is rich there, although the economic situation is not very strong. He told that there is no money but a cow in the form of dowry in marriage, which was never seen in India.

He proudly said that people who believe in other religions are also calling them to make Sanatan’s monastery. Shastri also taunted that when the world is giving him respect to him, some people in India are uncomfortable with his presence.

Questions arose about wearing glasses in Australia

Just everyone’s eyes have fallen in Australia, then say time … I have taken retirement, third thing gives something, we have never refused but yes it is not wrong ..

He said that he does not mind with disputes and criticisms because he knows that his conduct is not wrong. Shastri said that he is only worried that his loved ones and those who believe in Sanatan Dharma should not be hurt. He said in a sharp tone about the rest of the critics, “Those who have a nightmare, do not matter to us.”
