Swami Vijay Kumar Durai Expresses Deep Sadness at the Passing of Pope Francis and Reflects on Their Memorable Vatican Meeting, Hon

New York / Global - April 21, 2025 - Swami Vijay Kumar Durai, Global CEO and Board Member of PRS International Group of Companies, expressed profound sorrow at the passing of His Holiness, Pope Francis, calling it a moment of great loss for the world and for all who seek peace, justice, and compassion. Reflecting on his recent personal audience with Pope Francis at the Apostolic Palace, Swami Durai shared deep admiration and respect for the late pontiff. "It is with profound sadness that I learned of the passing of His Holiness, Pope Francis. During our recent meeting at the Apostolic Palace, he received me with great warmth and humility," Durai said.

The meeting, held earlier this year, was marked by a sincere and heartfelt exchange on some of the most pressing global challenges of our time. "We shared a deeply insightful conversation on pressing global issues, during which his wisdom and unwavering commitment to human dignity-especially in safeguarding the most vulnerable-left a lasting impression on me," Durai added.

Swami Durai was moved by the solemnity and honor bestowed upon him during the visit, including a ceremonial guard of honor and the presentation of meaningful gifts. "I vividly recall the honor extended to me that day, including the ceremonial guard of honor and the generous gifts he presented-a Pontiff medal and a book-symbols of his deep respect and boundless kindness." One particular moment stood out: Pope Francis's urgent call to combat the growing spread of misinformation. "His words on the urgent need to combat fake news resonated strongly with me. In an age where misinformation spreads rapidly, his call for truth and integrity stands as a beacon for leaders and media professionals alike," Durai said.

Pope Francis was widely loved for his ability to reach people across cultures, faiths, and generations. "Pope Francis's contagious smile touched the hearts of millions across the globe. His natural ability to connect with people of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs has left an indelible mark on countless lives," said Durai. "He inspired millions-not just within the Catholic Church-but far beyond, through his humility, compassion, and unconditional love for the less fortunate. These values of integrity, truth, and compassion are more relevant today than ever."

As a media leader and global advocate for truth and social responsibility, Swami Durai said he will continue to uphold the values Pope Francis so deeply championed. "I remain deeply grateful for his extraordinary leadership and his lifelong mission to build a world grounded in justice, empathy, and peace." Swami Vijay Kumar Durai extended his heartfelt condolences to Catholics across Europe and the world. "My heartfelt condolences go out to Catholics across Europe and the world during this time of collective mourning. May his legacy continue to guide us all toward a brighter, more compassionate future."
