Sayani ChakrabortyJuly 27, 20220

Two themes came through loud and clear in Droupadi Murmu's statement after taking the oath of office as India's next president: service and integrated education. Murmu has highlighted the 19 th century Saint poet of Odisha, Bhima Bhoi, “mo jivan pachhe narke padithau, jagata uddhara heu”, which means that “the world must be saved even if I suffer hell for that cause.” The significance of this poem is undeniable, despite the difficulties of accurately expressing the saint poet's spiritual vision and the inherent problem of translating spiritual poetry into another language. Even in the midst of chaos, misery abounds. When the poet witnesses the suffering of others, he is moved to tears, and he would give up everything, even his own life, to help those in need. Those who can sense the ang...

Images or cultural symbols that, on the other hand, represent peace and nonviolence would always be appealing to individuals who have a long-term stake in the safety and security of humankind. However, the politicisation of particular symbols as aggressive and ferocious relies on the political ideology of individuals desiring such symbolism. The leaders encourage us to look at symbols of compassion, love, and friendship in the Buddhist tradition as a normative approach.
