Ancient Thoughts Reaching the New Generation
PM Modi said that today I got a chance to visit Vivekananda House. While meditating on the famous rock at Kanyakumari, Swamiji discovered the purpose of his life. I feel inspired and energized. I am happy to see that ancient ideas are reaching the new generation.
Math works on the spirit of Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat
PM Modi said that people across the country had a clear concept of India as a nation for thousands of years. This is the spirit of Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat. This is the spirit with which Ramakrishna Math works.
The PM said that the country has decided to make the next 25 years Amrit Kaal. This Amrit Kaal can be used to achieve great things by imbibing the five thoughts – the Pancha Pranas. Which is to build a developed India, remove any trace of colonial mindset, celebrate our heritage, strengthen unity and focus our thoughts.
