Mumbai, Mar 9: “We should not assume that science and religion are against each other. There are some scientific facts in religion. Research is required above other things. Therefore youth and those who indulge in scientific thinking should show inclination towards religion. The society will be healthy and lives will be happy with it,” said Sirsi Sonda Swarnawalli Samsthanam seer Jagadguru Shankaracharya Gangadharendra Swamiji.

He spoke to the devotees at Sri Shankera Math, Matunga east on Monday March 6. Yoga is necessary for everybody everyday. Yoga relaxes the mind. Blood pressure, heart attack and diabetes have increased these days. Mental pressure is the reason for those ailments, he said.
