Spiritual guru Sadhguru expresses gratitude to PM and UP CM for taking up the Kashi Corridor rejuvenation

New Delhi: The revered spiritual Guru Sadhguru has expressed his gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for rejuvenating the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Dham. He also thanked the people of Uttar Pradesh and Varanasi for their contribution towards it.

“My heart fills with joy that a revival of Kashi has happened. The vagaries of time have taken a toll on Kashi, but today, to whatever extent possible, these have been repaired and restructured. My utmost gratitude to the Prime Minister, Chief Minister and the people of Uttar Pradesh and Varanasi who have contributed to making this happen,” the venerated seer said in a message ahead of the PM dedicating the rejuvenated Kashi Dham to the public on December 13.

He said that from the times it was Kashi, the seat of Lord Shiva to today’s world when it is the Lok Sabha seat of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the temple town had caught the imagination of millions across the world. Whether one was an ardent Shaivaite or not had been immaterial. All that mattered for the faithful and even those who were not are the immense energy and peace that this place always offered them so benevolently.

As Sadhguru points out “how from the earliest recollections of human memory, for millennia, they talk about a great city called Varanasi that was built between the two rivers of Varuna and Asi. Mark Twain also termed Kashi older than legend. When Athens was not even thought of, Kashi was in existence. And so even when Rome did not even exist in people’s minds, Kashi was etched deep into the minds of millions.”

While adding, he said “his ancient city was built as a Yantra, or a functioning energy mechanism,” points out Sadhguru. A phenomenon of enormous capability that connected the ‘microcosm’ and the ‘macrocosm’ – such that the individual human being can have the possibility of uniting with the universal.”

He said that “light of Vishwanath Ji is not limited to any particular group of people based on any divisions that we make up in our minds.” He added that let all should make use of this moment to unite, not only Bharat, but the entire world, because this is about Vishwanath ji and so is the vision of both the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and also the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who wants the entire humanity should benefit from the grace, positivity and blessings that Kashi offers.”
