Prime Minister shares Sanskrit Subhashitam highlighting the strength of courage and resilience
July 08, 2026

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi said that courage is the greatest strength of a nation. He noted that it inspires the country to remain united even in the face of difficult challenges and to move steadily towards progress, prosperity and self-reliance.

The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-

“चलन्ति गिरयः कामं युगान्तपवनाहताः।

कृच्छ्रेऽपि न चलत्येव धीराणां निश्चलं मनः।। ”

The Subhashitam conveys that even mountains, lashed by tempestuous winds, are shaken and set in motion at the time of dissolution; yet amid the gravest trials, the mind of the steadfast remains unwavering and undisturbed.

The Prime Minister wrote on X;

“धैर्य किसी राष्ट्र की सबसे बड़ी शक्ति है। इससे कठिन चुनौतियों के बीच भी देश को एकजुट रहने के साथ ही प्रगति, समृद्धि और आत्मनिर्भरता की दिशा में निरंतर आगे बढ़ने की प्रेरणा मिलती है।

चलन्ति गिरयः कामं युगान्तपवनाहताः।

कृच्छ्रेऽपि न चलत्येव धीराणां निश्चलं मनः।।”
