With the final phase of Lok Sabha polls scheduled to take place on the 1st, Prime Minister Modi will perform penance at the Swami Vivekananda Rock in the middle of the ocean in Kanyakumari for 3 consecutive days. Why 3 days of severe penance at Kanyakumari Vivekananda rock? What is PM Modi’s message? Let’s see about that.
Kanyakumari is the southern tip of Bharat, the mythical land of wisdom. It is at this point where the Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea meet that Goddess Parvati prays to Lord Shiva as a virgin.
Swami Vivekananda, who highlighted the glory of India through his famous Chicago speech to the Westerners who thought of India as a land of the poor, had earlier done penance here at Kanyakumari.
After Lord Ramakrishna Paramahamsa attained Mukti in 1886, young Narendra traveled the land of India on foot for six consecutive years.
On the 25th, 26th and 27th of December 1892, he sat on a rock in the middle of the Kanyakumari sea and did penance.
For Narendra, the thousands of years of history of this holy Bharat ran before his eyes like a movie. Maharishis and Mamunivas who guided this Bharat through suffering showed Narendra the way.
Narendra realized that India, then enslaved by the whites, would be freed only if it realized its spiritual power and felt it was its duty to awaken the Indian people. Like Swami Vivekananda, who called India ‘Ekmeen Vilimin’, Prime Minister Modi is doing penance at Kanyakumari sea for 3 days.
Striving to position India as the world’s Vishwa Guru, Prime Minister Modi is committed to developing the country as a third economic nation through Sapka Saath and Sapka Vikas. That is why Prime Minister Modi is doing penance in the middle of the sea at Kanyakumari.
Swami Vivekananda visited North India for the first time in 1887. He also first came to Varanasi. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also contested and won the 2014 Lok Sabha elections from Varanasi.
Swami Vivekananda visited Almora in Uttarakhand in September 1890 and meditated for a long time in the Kasar Devi cave.
Similarly, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also visited Almora and performed penance for 17 hours at the same Kasar Devi cave after the 2019 election campaign was over.
Earlier, in 2014 too, after the final phase of election campaigning, he paid homage to the legendary Maratha king Chhatrapati Shivaji, who founded the Hindu empire in Maharashtra, at the Pratapgad fort.
Prime Minister Modi also said that the struggle of Chhatrapati Shivaji, who fought for the glory of India, was not only to seize power but also to save India from slavery.
It is noteworthy that on the birthday of Swami Vivekananda last January 12, he posted on his X site that Swami Vivekananda’s ideas give energy and inspiration and will always inspire the youth.
Modi’s opportunity to serve 5.5 crore people as the Chief Minister of Gujarat in October 2001 was converted into an opportunity to serve Indians as Prime Minister from 2014. Prime Minister Modi, who led India for the second time in 2019, is now expected to lead India for the third time. The world is staring at India in wonder!
