“…The Gita is widely recognized for its deep philosophical wisdom, ethical quandaries [1], and spiritual instructions [2]. It encompasses a wide range of philosophical and ethical teachings [3] and explores concepts such as duty, righteousness, selflessness, and the nature of reality as jnana yoga (the path of knowledge) [4]. The Bhagavad Gita represents more than just a set of religious principles to be followed; it encompasses an entire way of life that permeates every aspect of an individual's existence [5].…”

“…This is what the term "Sanatana Dharma" denotes. It's a way of life that is not limited to the simple observance of a set of predetermined religious tenets but rather penetrates all parts of a person's being [1][2][3]. At the heart of Sanatana Dharma lies the belief in Atman, often misunderstood as being synonymous with one's body or mind.…”

This article reports how the rhetorical devices and logical argument utilized in the speech of Narendra Modi, the prime minister of India, delivered in Lumbini, addressing the 2566th birth ceremony of Lord Buddha, assisted him to establish his purpose by persuading the audience. I adopted the concept of rhetoric developed by Aristotle and the notion of argument advanced by Toulmin as a theoretical perspective to analyze his speech. The findings reported that Modi used rhetorical devices and layers of argument to establish religious and cultural relationships between Nepal and India; however, he focused on religions, particularly Hinduism and Buddhism, and excluded the religious and cultural sentiments of people belonging to other religious and cultural backgrounds living in both countries. The finding further revealed that Modi’s seemingly religious rhetoric was directed towards the political mission of promoting relations between Nepal and India by expanding cultural nationalism and establishing the supremacy of Hinduism and Buddhism. This study has greater significance because it adds new insights into the existing literature on rhetoric and communication and provides a clear direction for further analyzing the rhetorical strategy in Modi’s speeches.
