Bengaluru, NFAPost: In a heartfelt gesture, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to Twitter on Thursday to extend his warm wishes to the people on the auspicious occasion of Ashadhi Ekadashi. Recognized as a significant day in the Hindu calendar, Ashadhi Ekadashi marks the commencement of the four-month period known as ‘chaturmaas,’ during which it is believed that Lord Vishnu retires to rest.
Devotees hold steadfast in their belief that this period calls for refraining from auspicious activities. As such, Ashadhi Ekadashi is regarded as a time for introspection and spiritual reflection. The Prime Minister’s message aimed to inspire individuals to embrace the virtues of devotion, humility, and compassion, in harmony with the sacred Warkari tradition.
Modi’s tweet read, “Wishing everyone a blessed Ashadhi Ekadashi. May this sacred day inspire us to embrace virtues of devotion, humility, and compassion in line with the Warkari tradition. With Bhagwan Vitthal’s blessings, may we always work together to build a happy, peaceful, and inclusive society.”
The Prime Minister’s message resonates deeply with the devotees, who consider the occasion as an opportunity to renew their commitment to spirituality and virtuous living. By urging citizens to embody these values, Modi highlights the importance of fostering unity and creating a society that is harmonious and all-encompassing.
As Ashadhi Ekadashi continues to be celebrated across the nation, the Prime Minister’s thoughtful message serves as a reminder to individuals to cultivate devotion, humility, and compassion in their lives. With the blessings of Bhagwan Vitthal, his aspirations for a prosperous and inclusive society can be realized through collective efforts and the practice of these revered values.
