New Delhi, April 12: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday extended his heartfelt greetings to the citizens of India on the auspicious occasion of Hanuman Jayanti, a festival that celebrates the birth of Lord Hanuman, one of the most revered deities in Hinduism.
Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi wrote, “Warm wishes to all on Hanuman Jayanti. May Bajrangbali bless everyone with happiness, prosperity, and good health.” His message was widely shared, drawing attention from devotees, political leaders, and the general public alike.
Hanuman Jayanti is observed to commemorate the birth of Lord Hanuman, who is celebrated for his unwavering devotion to Lord Ram, immense strength, and courage. Often referred to as the symbol of devotion, loyalty, and selfless service, Lord Hanuman holds a special place in the hearts of millions across the country and in many parts of the world.
The day is marked by devotees visiting Hanuman temples, chanting prayers, reciting the Hanuman Chalisa, and taking part in religious processions. Many observe fasts, engage in spiritual discussions, and reflect on the qualities of Hanuman that inspire strength and perseverance in the face of adversity.
In his message, PM Modi highlighted the timeless relevance of Hanuman’s virtues. He noted that Hanuman’s values—courage, commitment, and compassion—continue to inspire the people of India and serve as guiding principles in everyday life. His mention of health and prosperity in the greeting was especially poignant at a time when the nation continues to prioritize well-being and development across various sectors.
Hanuman, often described in the epic Ramayana, is known not only for his physical strength but also for his wisdom and humility. From his leap across the ocean in search of Sita to his unwavering support of Ram in the battle against Ravana, Hanuman’s actions are seen as metaphors for dedication and righteousness.
Celebrations this year saw large gatherings at prominent temples such as the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple in Varanasi and the Hanuman Mandir in Connaught Place, Delhi. Devotees offered special prayers and flowers, while spiritual leaders delivered discourses on the life and teachings of Hanuman.
PM Modi’s greeting resonated with his long-standing admiration for Indian cultural traditions and spiritual heritage. Known for invoking figures from Indian mythology in his speeches, the Prime Minister often emphasizes the need to draw inspiration from such timeless icons in building a stronger and more compassionate nation.
The Prime Minister also praised the efforts of those who organize public events and community services on this occasion. He said that festivals like Hanuman Jayanti offer an opportunity for people to come together, strengthen community bonds, and reflect on shared values.
As the nation celebrates Hanuman Jayanti with devotion and fervor, the Prime Minister’s message adds to the spiritual and cultural significance of the day, reminding people of the enduring relevance of Hanuman’s life and teachings in modern times.
