Swamiji Honored Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam on the occasion of his Birthday October 15th 2024 |
| Today, October 15, 2024, marks the birth anniversary of Bharat Ratna Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, the former President of India and a distinguished scientist. Dr. Kalam played a pivotal role in advancing India's position in defense, science, and technology on the global stage. His remarkable journey from humble beginnings to the highest office in the country is a testament to his unwavering dedication, hard work, and perseverance. Dr. Kalam’s life serves as an enduring inspiration to young adults and aspiring students. He exemplified resilience, passion, and an unshakable "never-give-up" attitude. Despite facing numerous challenges, he remained steadfast in his pursuits, using failures as stepping stones toward success. His legacy continues to inspire generations to dream big and work tirelessly toward those dreams. After completing his tenure as President, Dr. Kalam remained committed to education. He dedicated his life to teaching and passed away while delivering a lecture at IIM Shillong, illustrating his lifelong devotion to nurturing young minds. Known for his simplicity and humility, Dr. Kalam owned few material possessions and left Rashtrapati Bhavan with just a small suitcase, embodying a life of service and selflessness. On this occasion, His Holiness Sri Sri Sri Viswayogi Viswamjee Maharaj has declared October 15th as Universal Intellectuals Day to honor intellectuals who dedicated their lives to the welfare of humanity. This declaration aligns with other significant observances such as March 5th (Universal Integration and Peace Day) and Guru Purnima (Universal Mother's Day). Dr. Kalam holds a special place in His Holiness’s heart for his invaluable contributions to society. Dr. Kalam's decision not to pardon those who attacked India's Parliament during his presidency attracted criticism. However, His Holiness has affirmed that Dr. Kalam, as President, upheld the law of the land, recognizing the severity of the attack on India's highest democratic institution. Let us honor Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam's legacy by reflecting on his immeasurable contributions to science, education, and society. |
