She congratulated Heartfulness founder and Padma Bhushan awardee Kamlesh D Patel, popularly known as Daaji, for taking the Heartfulness movement to 160 countries across the world. “This is a very sacred cause, aimed at amalgamating inner peace with world peace,” she said.

Accompanied by joint secretary of ministry of culture Uma Nanduri, the President took a tour of exhibition stalls at the summit and appreciated the legacy of the Heartfulness mission. Speaking on the occasion, Daaji said that the time has come for mankind to unite steadfastly. “There is an urgency to it to prevent any more wars, chaos and strife taking place. If each of us understands that we all are one, it is the same divine light within each of us, we can overcome the differences,” he said.

Earlier in the day, there was a panel discussion on ‘Inner Peace to World Peace’, followed by another discussion on ‘Spirituality in Daily Lives.’ Several prominent religious heads took part in the panel discussions.
