An array of speakers highlighted the rich spiritual legacy of Puducherry at a seminar held in connection with the 10^th Pondicherry Heritage Festival (PHF) and the 150^th birth anniversary of Sri Aurobindo.

Addressing the seminar on ‘Pondicherry: The Cave of Tapasya”, K. Tharanikkarasu, vice-chancellor-in-charge, Pondicherry University, noted that a deep sense of spiritual heritage is the legacy of the land of Puducherry.

The place, which was earlier called Vedapuri, was comparable to Kasi, Varanasi, and other sacred places of Bharat, he said.
