July 24, 2026

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam today, highlighting how continuous practice in thought, word, and action shapes one's character and direction in life.

The Prime Minister wrote on X;

"कर्मणा मनसा वाचा यदभीक्ष्णं निषेवते।

तदेवापहरत्येनं तस्मात् कल्याणमाचरेत्॥"

Whatever a person continuously practices through their actions, thoughts, and words ultimately shapes their personality and draws them in that very direction; therefore, one should always give space only to beneficial subjects in one's thoughts and conversations.
