(MENAFN) Ahead of the crucial final stages of India’s general elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will embark on a spiritual journey to the southernmost tip of India where he will undertake two days of meditation. The tranquil setting of the Vivekananda Rock-Cut Memorial in Kanniyakumari, Tamil Nadu, will serve as the backdrop for Modi’s meditative retreat and reflect the spiritual legacy of Swami Vivekananda, the revered Hindu monk who is believed to have attained enlightenment at this site in 1893.
The significance of Modi’s meditation retreat echoes a similar event during the 2019 general election, when he spent a day meditating in a cave in Uttarakhand. The spiritual retreat coincided with voting day, which saw Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies win a landslide victory.
PM Modi’s commitment to spirituality has been a signature aspect of his leadership, with his supporters praising him for elevating India’s spiritual heritage to the global stage. In a recent interview with NDTV, PM Modi expressed his belief that he is guided by a higher purpose and hinted at a deep spiritual connection to his work. While claiming to be dedicated to God’s will, PM Modi admitted that he does not know the details of his divine purpose and said he relies on God’s guidance for direction.
As India awaits the final election results, Modi’s spiritual retreat underscores the intertwining of spirituality and politics in the country’s cultural context.
