Amid detachment, my mind was constantly thinking about Bharat's bright future: PM Modi after meditation

The PM had penned the note on June 1 during his return flight from Kanniyakumari to Delhi. The PM concluded his 45-hour meditation at the Vivekananda Rock Memorial- in Kanniyakumari where Swami Vivekananda had envisioned the form of “Bharat Mata”.

“Swami Vivekananda had said in 1897 that we must dedicate the next 50 years solely for the nation. Exactly 50 years after this call, Bharat gained independence in 1947. Today, we have the same golden opportunity. Let’s dedicate the next 25 years solely for the nation. Our efforts will create a strong foundation for the coming generations and the coming centuries, taking Bharat to new heights,” he wrote.

In his note titled “New Sankalp from Sadhana", the PM said he had held his final rally of the 2024 Lok elections in Punjab’s Hoshiarpur before visiting Kanniyakumari. However, as he entered the meditative state, PM said, “the heated political debates, the attacks and counterattacks, the voices and words of accusations which are so characteristic of an election…they all vanished into a void. A sense of detachment came to grow within me”.  “Amidst this detachment, amidst the peace and silence, my mind was constantly thinking about the bright future of Bharat,” wrote PM Modi.

The PM also said empowering 25 crore people to rise above poverty in just 10 years is “unprecedented”. “Today, Bharat’s progress and rise are not just a significant opportunity for Bharat alone, but also a historic opportunity for all our partner countries around the world. Since the success of the G-20, the world has been increasingly envisioning a bigger role for Bharat,” he said.
