Speech of HH Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji – Republic Day January 26, 2016 – Mysore

Compiled by Shruthi Jagadish

Bharata Bhoomi ki JAI!
Jai Veera Hanuman ki JAI!
Vande Mataram!

The soldiers who are protecting our nation worship Hanuman. Every day they chant Hanuman Chalisa. About 18 lakh people in the military chant the Hanuman Chalisa daily. They have great belief in Hanumanta. They respect and value Hanuman more than their life. I have complete faith that it is Hanuman who is protecting our country. I have experienced this. Last month I went to the border near Bhuj. All the military people believe in Hanuman and chant the Hanuman Chalisa. I have seen a small Hanuman temple also there. I wonder at the sacrifice they are making. We are all very safe – playing, eating, and sleeping. These soldiers are watching over us, have sacrificed their lives. So many people have died in the wars. Now let us pray for a minute for them to rest in peace.
This is Republic Day, we have also hoisted the flag.

Please sing Vande Maataram again now.

Bharat Mata ki JAI!
Jai Hind!

I got delayed today. A baby bird was born this morning to a rare bird species . I will name it Bharat!

Jaya Guru Datta.
