In Modi conversation with Lex Fridman, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared profound insights on India’s philosophy of peace, the importance of fasting, and the evolving role of artificial intelligence.
His words reflect India’s deep-rooted values and its aspirations for the future.
Here are the key quotes by Narendra Modi:
- On RSS: “One of the core values that were instilled in us at RSS was, whatever you do, do it with a purpose.” “Even while studying, study with the goal of learning enough to contribute to the nation. Even when you exercise, do it with the purpose of strengthening your body to serve the nation.”
- On India: “India has always championed the ideas of global peace and brotherhood.” “For centuries, we have envisioned the world as one big family.
- On Artificial Intelligence: “I firmly believe that no technology can ever replace the boundless creativity and imagination of the human mind.”
- About Fasting: “Fasting is a way to cultivate discipline… It is a powerful tool to bring both the inner and outer self into balance.”
- On Peace: “As for me, I have always maintained that I stand with peace. I am not neutral. I have a stance and that is peace, and peace is what I strive for.”
- “My strength lies not in my name, but in the backing of 1.4 billion Indians and thousands of years of timeless culture and heritage.”
- On Criticism: “Criticism is the soul of democracy. If democracy truly runs in your veins, you must embrace it.”
- On India’s Role in AI: “No matter what the world does with AI, it will remain incomplete without India. I believe AI development is fundamentally a collaboration.
- “India will neither allow itself to be looked down upon nor will it ever look up to anyone. India will now see eye-to-eye with her counterparts.”
- “Death is certain. So why fear what is certain? You must commit to enriching your life before death comes knocking.”
