KESHAV BALIRAM HEDGEWAR

Blessings From The Eminent

Doctorji desired that all the leading personalities of our country should know and appreciate the need for the Sangh work and  should be persuaded to be involved in it to the extent possible. Towards the end of 1928,he met Subhash Chandra Bose in Calcutta. Doctorji's way of presenting his ideas and his deep insight into the problems faced by the country did not fail to have an impact on the sharp mind of Subhash Babu.

Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya was one of the greatest patriots of our country. Once Doctorji invited him to the Mohitewada Shakha. Observing the Shakha amid the dilapidated structure and broken walls, Malaviya inferred that the financial condition of the Sangh was not sound. He was famous for collecting funds for any national or social cause. He said to Doctorji, "Doctorsahab, I am called a royal beggar. If you approve, I shall be happy to collect some funds for Sangh also."

"Panditji, Sangh does not need money. Your blessings are more valuable for us."

The reply of Doctorji came as a surprise for Malaviya. He said, "My experience is that all organizations pay more attention to funds than to persons. But your approach is quite different. You have given the first place for heart. I shall proclaim this greatness of yours, wherever I go."
