New Delhi: Former Chief Justice of India (CJI) Dr DY Chandrachud highlighted the teachings of Sant Dnyaneshwar and their relevance in contemporary times while addressing the All World Gayatri Parivar Centenary Celebrations 2026 at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Delhi.
Referring to the 750th birth anniversary of Sant Dnyaneshwar, Chandrachud spoke about the saint’s commentary on the Bhagavad Gita and explained the essence of the 10 verses of his famous Pasaydan. He said the verses express a desire to rid society of evil and deceit, promote love, friendship and harmony among people, and spread the light of righteousness and knowledge across the world.
Describing the words of saints as nectar, the former CJI spoke of an ideal society where all living beings are happy and the entire humanity prospers.
Dr Chandrachud also spoke about the significance of the Gayatri Mantra, saying its 24 syllables embody a universal spiritual vision. According to him, the mantra offers a path towards knowledge, peace and spiritual awareness.

The former CJI observed that the world was currently passing through a period marked by wars and conflicts. At the same time, the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence (AI) was bringing its own uncertainties.
In such circumstances, the Gayatri Mantra can inspire peace, mental clarity and spiritual growth. Through references to Sant Dnyaneshwar’s teachings, the Gayatri Mantra and the broader idea of human welfare, Chandrachud underlined the need for peace and harmony in the present times.
