PM to attend 150th birth anniversary of Shrimad Rajchandraji tomorrow

Mumbai, Jun 28 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend tomorrow the 150th birth anniversary of spiritual luminary Shrimad Rajchandaji, who was also spiritual guide of Mahatma Gandhi, at Ahmedabad in Gujarat. A grand celebration has been organised in Ahmedabad by the various organisations of Shrimad Rajchandra, in which Mr Modi will be present along with Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshbhai, founder of Shrimad Rajchandra Mission, Dharampur and other luminaries. Mr Rajchandra was hailed as the spiritual guide of Mahatma Gandhi and had a tremendous and formative influence on the Father of the Nation. The aim of this celebration is to spread Shrimad Rajchandraji's values of ahimsa and satya, that shaped Mahatma Gandhiji's beliefs, and to bring his illuminating and spiritually uplifting teachings to the maximum number of people from all walks of life. The celebration was as though launched from the Red Fort itself by Mr Modi, who in his uplifting speech on the occasion of India’s 70th Independence Day said, "The country is celebrating the 150th birth anniversary of Shrimad Rajchandraji, Mahatma Gandhiji’s Guru. In one of His letters to Gandhiji, Shrimadji writes... the principle of non-violence has existed ever since the existence of violence. What is important is which one do we utilise for the welfare of mankind." Shrimad Rajchandraji is the epitome of spirituality. He was a perfect blend of pure knowledge, selfless devotion and complete detachment. Shrimadji attained self-realisation at the age of 23. His preachings have been published in an invaluable volume ‘Shrimad Rajchandra’, which continues to quench the thirst of true seekers. Through ashrams, temples and institutions dedicated to Shrimadji around the world, lakhs of devotees are benefiting from his teachings and progressing on the spiritual path. UNI ST SS SM SHK 2159
