26 Jan 2025, Amritapuri
At Amritapuri Ashram, India’s 76th Republic Day was commemorated with heartfelt devotion to the motherland. Swami Turiyamritananda Puri hoisting the national flag, while members of the Kerala Police and CRPF 221 Battalion, saluted in ceremonial respect.
In a moving moment, CRPF jawans presented the tricolour to Amma during the afternoon program. With a gracious smile, Amma waved the flag, expressing her love for Bharat’s ancient wisdom, a treasure freely shared with the world.
Amma shared profound words: “This world and all the creatures in it are merely different forms and expressions of the one Supreme Consciousness. Hence, we should treat every aspect of creation, both sentient and insentient, with love, respect, and servitude. This is the vision of this land of Bharat. This is the lofty message Bharat carries to the world.”
Amma led everyone in prayers for universal peace, chanting “Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu,” and distributed prasad to the CRPF soldiers as gratitude for their service.
Ashram residents and devotees from across the globe participated in the celebrations, embodying the unity and inclusivity that Bharat represents.
