Today, we had a very special guest amongst us from Japan: His Excellency Mr. Hakubun Shimomura - Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. We were also joined today by: Sri Abhaychandra Jain, Sachidananda Swami, Justice Rama Jois, Justice Venkatachaliah, Arun Madhavan. H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar jis message: When you consider the whole World as one family, Japan is our first room. The Japanese culture and Indian culture have a very strong relationship. There is a natural bonding between India and Japan. You know Japan means purity. Here in every home they do Japa (rosary) to purify the mind. The chanting that we do is called Japa. That is a prelude to #meditation. We welcome you here to come again and again and we welcome Japanese students to visit India. We would like to have a chair for Shinto studies here in India. All the research scholars should do more work. There must be a deep connection.
