'Without economic strength nothing can be preserved in the country:' Sadhguru at Isha's Republic Day celebrations

The 74th Republic Day celebrations at Isha was marked by extravagant cultural performances by students of Isha Samskriti and Isha Home School capturing the cultural depth, patriotic fervor, and diversity of the country.


Coimbatore: "If we are not economically strong, we cannot protect our culture and spirituality in our country," said Sadhguru at the Republic Day celebrations held in Isha on Thursday.

“Till 300 years ago our country India was the most economically prosperous country in the world. We are once again striving to regain that status. Without economic resilience, nothing else can be preserved, whether it is culture, our values, or our very deep-rooted spiritual process,” opined Sadhguru.

Observing the common threat that existed in the country despite its apparent diversity, Sadhguru remarked, “We living in India are different in many ways with regard to caste, religion, language, ethnicity, food habits and culture.

Despite our differences, we have all lived together for hundreds of years. Before independence, our country was ruled by more than 600 feudal lords. However, all the outsiders called us by the single name of Hindustan or Bharat.”

Sadhguru tweeted on Republic Day saying “#RepublicDay - A reminder of the wonderful journey of our beloved Bharat, which has not only become a great democracy but also a symbol of a vibrant, diverse and united nation. Every citizen should continue to contribute to building a strong, inclusive and compassionate #Bharat.”
