New Delhi, June 4: Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared an inspirational message on the social media platform ‘X’ on Thursday, urging people to incorporate yoga into their daily routines. He emphasized that regular practice of yoga keeps the body healthy and the mind calm.
In his post, PM Modi stated, “Regular practice of yoga keeps the body healthy and the mind calm. Making it a part of your daily routine leads to a balanced and energetic life.”
Along with this message, he shared a Sanskrit verse: “योगेन चित्तस्य पदेन वाचां मलं शरीरस्य च वैद्यकेन. योऽपाकरोत् तं प्रवरं मुनीनां पतञ्जलिं प्राञ्जलिरानतोऽस्मि॥”
The meaning of this verse is a tribute to the great sage Patanjali, who purifies the mind through yoga, speech through grammar, and the body’s impurities through Ayurveda.
Earlier, on Wednesday, PM Modi had shared another ‘Subhashitam’ message focusing on unity. He conveyed that the strength of the nation multiplies through solidarity and mutual cooperation.
He remarked that when citizens unite and collaborate, the nation’s power increases significantly. This collective resolve is what enables India to reach new heights of progress. The accompanying verse was: “धूमायन्ते व्यपेतानि ज्वलन्ति सहितानि च. धृतराष्ट्रोल्मुकानीव ज्ञातयो भरतर्षभ॥”
This verse illustrates that just as firewood does not reveal its full energy when separated, but ignites and provides light and warmth when gathered, a state’s progress, prosperity, and strength depend on the unity, cooperation, and collective resolve of its citizens.
