The Vice President said that the sanctity and spiritual eminence of the Sripuram Golden Temple are
reflected in the visits of former Presidents of India, Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam and Shri Ram Nath Kovind,
and more recently, the President of India, Smt. Droupadi Murmu, who visited the temple last month.
Emphasising Sri Sakthi Amma’s commitment to dharma, the Vice President said that his guidance extends
beyond spirituality to comprehensive social service. He lauded the wide range of charitable activities
undertaken at Sripuram, including scholarships for students pursuing higher education, provision of
drinking water in water-scarce regions, long-standing initiatives such as distributing bicycles to students,
and the daily annadanam programme that serves food to thousands. He described these initiatives as noble
services rendered in the true spirit of devotion.
The Vice President further noted that more than 50,000 trees have been planted within the Sripuramcampus, and several lakh saplings have been planted on the nearby Kailasagiri hills. He termed this a
monumental contribution to Mother Earth and humanity, and a strong reinforcement of the environmental
conservation initiatives of the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi. He added that protecting the
environment is itself a form of divine service.
Emphasising that true spirituality lies not merely in ritual worship but in love, compassion, and service to
fellow human beings, the Vice President cited the words of poet Subramania Bharati, who said, “There is
no greater penance than love.” He observed that loving and serving society constitutes the highest form of
spiritual discipline.
The Vice President described Sri Sakthi Amma as a great spiritual luminary of the present age, who
exemplifies the principle of “Love is Divine” through his life and actions, nurturing righteousness and
spiritual consciousness across society.
Earlier in the day, the Vice President performed darshan at the Sri Narayani Temple, Sripuram, Vellore,
Tamil Nadu. He prayed to Goddess Lakshmi for peace, prosperity, and happiness for all.
