Modi Summarizes His Meeting With Elon Musk With an Accent on Spirituality

Hours ago Indian Prime Minister Narenda Modi tweeted a summary of this meeting with Tesla's CEO Elon Musk with a welcome message on spirituality, pointing to beyond carmaking and economy.

Last night I posted a video report sharing Tesla CEO Elon Musk's view about the results of his meeting with the Indian Prime Minister Narenda Modi. In this report I am going to share with you Modi's personal view of the meeting and how Elon Musk responded to it.

So after the meeting the Indian Prime Minister tweeted a short summary of his meeting with Elon Musk and wrote "Great meeting you today with Elon Musk! We had multifaceted conversations on issues ranging from energy to spirituality."

Musk quickly responded, writing "It was an honor to meet again."

So what's important about Modi's tweet? Spirituality! I am very glad he highlighted it. I don't know about Elon Musk's faith or religion, but I am very glad PM Modi highlighted the spirituality point because it hopefully will inspire people to search for God, to search for the experience of something that is beyond the material world or physical existence. It can also involve developing a deeper understanding of the self and embracing a sense of interconnectedness with others and the world around us.

Speaking of Spirituality, It's fair that you know where I stand in my beliefs. I am an orthodox Christian from the Armenian Apostolic Church, believing in the Holy Trinity and the Lord Jesus Christ as my savior.

Regarding Tesla's possible investment in India, I think Tesla in India would certainly be a big deal. I am also thinking that both parties, Tesla and India will probably offer some concessions, and that those will prove important to both sides bringing a possible electric vehicle manufacturing gigafactory to India in the next three years.

Mr Modi arrived in New York on Tuesday for a three-day state visit which is being seen has a turning point for bilateral relations between India and the US.

Do you think Tesla will build an electric vehicle gigafactory in India within the next three years? If so, what kind of vehicle would Tesla make for India?
