Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared Subhashit on social media platform X on Wednesday. Through this Subhashit, the message has been given that nation, strength and power are born only through penance and initiation.
The Prime Minister said the Sanskrit verse on Have shared. The meaning of this verse is that the knowledgeable sages of heaven, who desired the welfare of all, first took refuge in penance and initiation.
It was from that penance and initiation that the nation, strength and power were born. All gods bow to such a development-oriented nation and its potential.
This mantra is taken from Atharvaveda (Shaunaka Samhita, Kanda 19, Sukta 41, Mantra 1). This mantra highlights that the foundation of a strong, vigorous and prosperous nation is not based on luxury, but on the spirit of sacrifice, penance, discipline and collective welfare.
In this, the determination of the sages (seers and guides) has been described as the basic source of the creation of the nation and its energy (force and vigor).
Let us tell you that Atharva Veda-Samhita is the Samhita, i.e. Mantra-part of the fourth Veda, Atharva Veda, one of the most sacred Vedas of Hindu religion. This Veda is also called Brahmaveda. Along with praising the gods, it also contains mantras of medicine, science and philosophy. It has been said that in whose kingdom a scholar who knows Atharvaveda is engaged in the work of peace-keeping, that nation continues to progress without any trouble. God first gave the knowledge of Atharvaveda to Maharishi Angira, then Maharishi Angira gave that knowledge to Brahma.
Atharvaveda is considered to be the Vedanta stage after Rigveda. In this, various practical uses along with mantras, prayers for treatment, protection and wealth, disease prevention, vashikaran and effective mantras etc. are given.
