A spiritual, cultural, and emotional culmination of their India journey at Parmarth Niketan
Special interaction between Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswati Ji and Russian delegation leader Mikhail Aslov

After an enriching 15-day journey across India, the Russian delegation concluded their visit in the serene lap of the Himalayas at Parmarth Niketan Ashram, situated on the sacred banks of Mother Ganga in Rishikesh. The divine atmosphere of the ashram, the pure flow of the Ganga, and the silent presence of the Himalayas offered the delegates a profound experience of inner peace and spiritual reflection.

In the gracious presence of Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji, the delegation engaged in meaningful dialogue on the purpose of life, positive living, selfless service, compassion, environmental protection, and the timeless Indian philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam—the world as one family. Swami Ji emphasized that solutions to today’s global challenges lie not merely in external development, but in inner awareness and compassion.

The delegation shared that their time at Parmarth Niketan helped them discover life’s true purpose, inner balance, and clarity to many deeper questions. This visit became the most inspiring and soulful chapter of their India journey.
