A Rare Opportunity to Meet Pope Francis at the Vatican.
A Rare Opportunity to Meet Pope Francis at the Vatican.
- By Suresh K P
I was honored to meet Pope Francis during the centenary celebration of Sree Narayana Guru’s “All Religion Conference" held at the Vatican on Nov 30, 2024. The event, presided over by Pope Francis alongside Swami Sathchidananda of Sivagiri Mutt, centered around the theme “Religions Together for a Better Humanity” a message of unity that is deeply relevant to our times.
Despite the high security, I was fortunate to meet the Pope in person, exchange a handshake, and have a brief conversation. I shared my belief that unity among religions is a key to global peace, inspired by the teachings of Sree Narayana Guru.
The Pope's reply: “You remember me in your prayers.”
A truly humbling and memorable experience!
