The presidential election is taking place in the United States, with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris battling for the top position. Kamala Harris, of Indian origin, is expected to win. However, in Delhi, saints and priests have performed a home yajna for former US President Donald Trump, praying for his victory. The video of this ritual has since gone viral on social media.
In the video, the saints chant slogans like “Vote Donald Trump and make the world great again.” Spiritual guru and Mahamandaleshwar Swami Bedamuti Nanda Saraswati leads the yajna, praying for Trump’s victory in the US elections.
The saints adorn the former president’s photo with a tilak while chanting slogans in front of posters featuring Donald Trump, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Kennedy Jr., and Vivek Ramaswamy. One poster reads, “Vote Donald Trump to save Hindus.”
As the saints chant for Trump’s victory, Swami Saraswati initiates the religious ceremony by playing the conch. His followers sit around him, holding posters of Trump, which show a picture of him alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with the words “friends forever” beneath it.
When the yajna begins, Swami Saraswati invokes the deities in Trump’s name. Meanwhile, social media users are reacting to the viral video, with some questioning why people of Indian descent are not praying for Kamala Harris’s victory.
