Sharing a Sanskrit Subhashitam on the occasion, Modi highlighted Ayurveda’s holistic approach to understanding health, lifestyle and longevity.
The Prime Minister posted on X: “आयुर्वेद दिवस की सभी देशवासियों को हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं! आयुर्वेद केवल उपचार की पद्धति नहीं, बल्कि स्वस्थ और संतुलित जीवनशैली का एक सशक्त माध्यम है। आइए, अपनी इस समृद्ध विरासत को अपनाने का संकल्प और मजबूत करें।”
He also shared the Sanskrit verse: “हिताहितं सुखं दुःखमायुस्तस्य हिताहितम्।
मानं च तच्च यत्रोक्तमायुर्वेदः स उच्यते।।”
