On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived at the Vivekananda Rock Memorial in Kanyakumari, where he will meditate from this morning to the afternoon of June 1.
It is noteworthy that Prime Minister Modi will meditate day and night at Dhyan Mandapam, the same place where Swami Vivekanand once meditated.
Following the conclusion of the Lok Sabha election campaign, Prime Minister Modi prayed at the Bhagavathy Amman temple in Kanyakumari on the same day.
The Prime Minister was seen wearing an off-white shawl covering his upper torso while wearing a ‘dhoti’.
In Hoshiarpur, Punjab, Prime Minister Modi on Thursday concluded his campaign for the general elections to be held on June 1.
As the Bharatiya Janata Party prepares to begin its third term in government, Prime Minister Modi has traveled across the country in support of his party’s candidacy.
Over the course of 75 days, the prime minister held around 206 election-related events such as roadshows and rallies. Additionally, he had almost 80 interviews for various media and news outlets.
The rock located at the memorial site had a significant influence on the life of Swami Vivekananda. It is believed that this rock had a comparable significance in the life of Swami Vivekananda to that of Sarnath in that of Gautam Buddha. After traveling across the nation and participating in mediation for three days, he arrived here and gained a vision of an advanced India.
Legend has it that Goddess Parvati also stood on one foot and concentrated there while waiting for Lord Shiva.
This is the southernmost point of India. Furthermore, this location links the eastern and western coasts of India. Furthermore, it is where the Arabian Sea, the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean converge. By visiting Kanyakumari, Prime Minister Modi demonstrates his support for national unity.
It is well known that the Prime Minister undertakes spiritual pilgrimages after election campaigns. He traveled to Kedarnath in 2019 and Shivaji’s Pratapgarh in 2014.
Starting April 19, elections to 543 Lok Sabha seats will be held in seven phases. June 4 is when the votes will be counted.
