Shirva, 05 March 2012: In the situations during the time of Mahabharatha and today, there is no difference. Anger, desire, enmity are the extreme characters in us. The devotional centers inspire us to alert the good characters in us and shape the sathvik values in us. Among the four yugas Kaliyug is the greatest one. Without any difference in caste, creed and gender everyone has the equal opportunity to earn the respect as per their achievement. Kalyug is the yuga of equality among all, said Dr. D. Virendra Hegde.
 
He was speaking during the religious ceremony while he participated in the reinstallation of renovated Shree Vishnumurthy Temple in Shirva on the third day. The elders were informing to the youngsters on the truth, honesty, donation and satvik values through Ramayana, Mahabharatha, Bhagavath stories in drama and yakshagana.
