New Delhi | November 4, 2026
In a significant moment of international cultural and environmental engagement, ‘PRITHVI’, a publication of OOJ Foundation, received a special ceremonial unveiling and diplomatic presentation during a distinguished gathering hosted by the Global Trade & Technology Council (India) (GTTCI) on November 3, 2026, at its Secretariat in Chanakyapuri, New Delhi.
The occasion formed part of a farewell ceremony organised in honour of Dr. Benno Böer, Programme Specialist and Chief of Sector, Natural Sciences, UNESCO Regional Office for South Asia, bringing together ambassadors, diplomatic representatives from approximately 10–15 countries, and distinguished international guests.
The publication, presented under the spiritual leadership of Pujya Sant Yogi Priyavrat Animesh Ji Maharaj, Founder and President of OOJ Foundation, had been formally unveiled by Union Defence Minister Shri Rajnath Singh on November 1, 2026, in New Delhi.
Following its national unveiling, the special presentation at GTTCI introduced the book to a wider international diplomatic audience, symbolising the growing relevance of India’s ancient philosophical traditions in contemporary global discussions on sustainability and human consciousness.





Dr. Benno Böer joined the ceremonial presentation alongside Yogi Priyavrat Animesh Ji Maharaj and distinguished international guests, marking an occasion of cultural exchange centred on environmental awareness and shared human values.
The gathering was facilitated under the leadership of Dr. Gaurav Gupta, Founder and President of GTTCI, whose organisation provides a platform for diplomatic interaction, international cooperation and cross-cultural engagement.
‘PRITHVI’ explores the timeless Indian philosophy of the Pancha Mahabhutas — Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space — connecting traditional spiritual wisdom with environmental responsibility, ecological balance and the deeper relationship between nature and human consciousness.
Through this publication, OOJ Foundation seeks to build meaningful bridges between India’s Sanātana knowledge traditions and the international community, encouraging dialogue on sustainable living, universal harmony and conscious human development.
The international ceremonial presentation marked another important step in the Foundation’s continuing efforts to bring India’s spiritual, philosophical and ecological heritage to a global audience.
From its official unveiling by India’s Defence Minister to its subsequent presentation before an international diplomatic gathering, ‘PRITHVI’ reflects OOJ Foundation’s vision of connecting ancient wisdom with the shared environmental and humanitarian priorities of the modern world.
