Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam on October 22, 2026, through his official X (formerly Twitter) account. The verse states: 'खद्योतो द्योतते तावद् यावन्नोदयते शशी। उदिते तु सहस्रांशौ न खद्योतो न चन्द्रमाः।।' which translates to a philosophical observation that a firefly appears to shine only in the absence of the moon, but when the sun rises, neither the firefly's glow nor the moon remains visible. The Prime Minister explained that this illustrates how the significance of lesser achievements lasts only until something greater emerges, emphasizing the importance of remaining humble rather than becoming arrogant over limited success and the constant need to continue learning and growing. The post was shared under the banner of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, India's 75th anniversary of independence commemorative initiative, and was published by the Press Information Bureau with release ID 2326359.
