PM Modi commenced his third and final day of meditation retreat in Kanniyakumari with the ancient ritual of ‘Surya Arghya’ at the Vivekananda Rock Memorial. This spiritual practice involves offering salutations to the divine sun, symbolizing reverence and gratitude. Dressed in saffron attire, PM Modi poured water into the sea as an offering and prayed using his prayer beads.
He also paid floral tributes to a statue of Swami Vivekananda and walked around the mandapam, immersed in meditation. Kanniyakumari’s picturesque sunrises and sunsets add to the serenity of the memorial, situated on a small islet near the shoreline. The Prime Minister embarked on his meditation journey on May 30th evening and is set to conclude it on Saturday evening.
