As Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s meditation pictures hit the Internet, Twitter wasted no time in turning it into a meme.
The Indian PM headed to Kedarnath for a Hindu ‘Teerth yatra‘ or religious pilgrimage. Just like Muslims undertake Hajj, the Char Dham Yatra is the Hindu equivalent of a religious pilgrimage. Worshipers go through it to emerge sin-free and enlightened.
And since Modi likes being photographed no matter where he goes, of course there were gonna be pictures. And then the internet had its way.

HOLY MODI
Modiji said, "Amit, things are grave.
So I will go and pray in a cave.
Cameras will gyrate,
And I will meditate.
Just the kind of tamasha I crave." pic.twitter.com/IdLzAljX6Q— Amit Varma (@amitvarma) May 18, 2019
