Pujya Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji Inspired Teachers to Protect Lives Through Water Service
Amid the intense heatwave and continuously rising temperatures, Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji shared a powerful message of humanity, service, and compassion, inspiring teachers from all schools run by Parmarth Niketan to actively engage in water service initiatives for the welfare of people, animals, and birds.
Pujya Swamiji emphasized that in these extreme weather conditions, it is not enough to protect only ourselves; we must also extend compassion and care towards society and every living being around us.
He said that offering even a single glass of water to a thirsty person is not merely giving water — it is offering the nectar of humanity. Keeping earthen pots filled with clean and cool drinking water outside homes, schools, shops, and public places reflects India’s timeless spiritual tradition of selfless service — “Service to Humanity is Service to God.”
Pujya Swamiji also urged everyone not to forget animals and birds suffering silently in the scorching heat. Placing a small bowl of water outside homes, balconies, rooftops, offices, or shops can become a lifeline for thirsty birds and other creatures.
He encouraged teachers to spread this awareness among students and society, nurturing values of compassion, environmental responsibility, water conservation, and love for nature in the younger generation.
Let us all come together in this intense summer to spread kindness, compassion, and service.
- Offer water to the thirsty
- Keep water for birds and animals
- Protect nature and conserve water
This is the true message of Indian culture and the essence of humanity.
