Without Economic Strength Nothing Can Be Preserved In The Country: Sadhguru At Isha’s Republic Day Ceremony

“If we are not economically strong, we cannot protect our culture and spirituality in our country,” said Sadhguru at the Republic Day celebrations held today (January 26) in Isha.

“Till 300 years ago our country India was the most economically prosperous country in the world. We are once again striving to regain that status. Without economic resilience nothing else can be preserved, whether it is culture, our values, or our very deep-rooted spiritual process, ”said Sadhguru.

Observing the common threat that existed in the country despite its apparent diversity, Sadhguru remarked, “We living in India are different in many ways like caste, religion, language, ethnicity, food habits and culture. Despite our differences, we have all lived together for hundreds of years. Before independence, our country was ruled by more than 600 feudal lords. However, all the outsiders called us by the single name of Hindustan or Bharat,”

Tweeting on Republic Day, Sadhguru said, “#RepublicDay – A reminder of the wonderful journey of our beloved Bharat, which has not only become a great democracy but also a symbol of a vibrant, diverse and united nation. Every citizen should continue to contribute to building a strong, inclusive and compassionate #Bharat,” he said.

The occasion was marked by beautiful cultural performances by students of Isha Samskriti and Isha Home School capturing the cultural depth, patriotic fervor, and diversity of the country. In another Republic Day celebration at Isha, Ikkarai Poluvambatti Panchayat Chairman Mr. Sadhanandham hoisted the national flag. Hundreds of local villagers including tribal people participated in the event.
