Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam (wise saying) on social media platform X on October 1, 2026, as part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav celebrations. The quote, "रत्नैर्महाब्धेस्तुतुषुर्न देवा न भेजिरे भीमविषेण भीतिम्। सुधां विना न प्रययुर्विरामं न निश्चितार्थाद्विरमन्ति धीराः॥", emphasizes the importance of determination and perseverance. The Prime Minister explained that the saying conveys how resolute and steadfast individuals never give up until they achieve their cherished goals, drawing an analogy to how deities remained undeterred by precious gems and deadly poison encountered while churning the ocean, continuing their efforts until they obtained the nectar of immortality. The post was released through the Prime Minister's Office and published by PIB Delhi, with the release ID 2317404, and was made available in multiple languages including Urdu, Marathi, Hindi, Bengali, Manipuri, Assamese, Punjabi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam.
