Former Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who played a pivotal role in transforming India into a global economic powerhouse, passed away on December 26, 2024, at the age of 92. Serving as India’s Prime Minister from 2004 to 2014, Dr. Singh is remembered not only for his leadership during a period of sweeping economic reforms but also for his unwavering support of global peace initiatives, including those championed by Sri Chinmoy.
Dr. Singh’s dedication to fostering peace was evident in his Message of 19 August 2004, written on the occasion of Sri Chinmoy’s birthday. In it, he praised Sri Chinmoy’s efforts to promote peace and harmony through spirituality, encouraging his followers to spread this message for the welfare of humanity. The message read:
“A well-known personality, Shri Chinmoy is engaged in promoting peace and harmony in the world through his manifold activities. By harnessing the humanistic aspects of different faiths and focusing on spirituality, people professing diverse creeds can be brought closer together for constructive action. The followers of Chinmoy spread over many countries of the world have to take up the responsibility of spreading this message for happiness and welfare of mankind. I extend my greetings to Shri Chinmoy and wish him health, happiness, and a long life to deepen his contributions.”

Reflecting on the late Prime Minister’s legacy, Nilima shared: “Dr. Singh’s kindness and encouragement for Sri Chinmoy’s work for peace touched countless lives. His vision for a harmonious world continues to inspire.”
