PM Modi to take 3-day meditation break in Kanyakumari from May 30!

Share:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Kanyakumari from May 30 to June 1, following the final leg of his election campaign and ahead of the upcoming Phase 7 polling on June 1. This visit will be a spiritual retreat, devoid of any political events.

During his stay, PM Modi will pay homage at the Rock Memorial and engage in meditation at the Dhyan Mandapam, the same location where Swami Vivekananda once meditated.

Significance of Kanyakumari and Its Link with Swami Vivekananda

  • Spiritual Vision: Kanyakumari is the place where Swami Vivekananda had a vision of Bharat Mata, profoundly impacting his life. This rock is often likened to Sarnath for Gautam Buddha, holding immense significance in Vivekananda’s spiritual journey.
  • Meditation Spot: Swami Vivekananda meditated here for three days, and this spot is now known as Dhyan Mandapam.
  • Mythological Importance: In Hindu mythology, it is believed that Goddess Parvati meditated at this spot while waiting for Lord Shiva.
  • Geographical Significance: Kanyakumari marks the southernmost tip of India and serves as the confluence point of the Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal, and Arabian Sea. It is also the meeting point of India’s eastern and western coastlines.

PM Modi’s Tradition of Spiritual Retreats

After wrapping up election campaigns, PM Modi often embarks on spiritual trips. In 2019, he visited Kedarnath, and in 2014, he went to Shivaji’s Pratapgarh.

This visit to Kanyakumari underscores the prime minister’s practice of seeking spiritual solace and inspiration from historically and culturally significant sites across India.
