South Africa, October 23, 2024 - On 27th September 2024, the Sivananda World Peace Foundation honoured Mohanji with the Sivananda Humanitarian Award, in recognition of his unwavering dedication to serving humanity and fostering spiritual growth. The award was presented by Prince Ishwar Ramlutchman and Ms. Yogas Nair, editor of The Post newspaper.

The award was presented at a special Multicultural Heritage event organized at the scenic Richards Bay Yacht Club, bringing together vibrant traditions from across South Africa. The event featured enchanting displays of traditional Zulu and Indian dances, embodying the spirit of cultural unity. Speakers at the event included reputed personalities such as Prof. Musa MK Xulu, Mr Senzo Dube, Commodore Brent Craig, Musa Mntambo, Cllr S Zwane, Ms Sulosh Pillay and Prince Ishwar Ramlutchman. Each speaker paid tribute to South Africa’s cultural heritage.

In his keynote address, Mohanji emphasized the importance of protecting nature, creating peace, and empowering communities. He urged the audience to preserve their natural beauty, share abundantly, and cultivate unity by overcoming divisions.

He also highlighted the World Tribal Alliance (WTA) movement, advocating for the empowerment and preservation of indigenous cultures worldwide. His message was one of global citizenship, where personal responsibility and authentic expression lead to a better, more peaceful world.

The unforgettable closing scene was Mohanji, taking up the traditional Zulu spear and shield, joining the Zulu warriors in a powerful and symbolic dance. The joy and camaraderie in that moment will be etched in the memories of all who witnessed it.

The Sivananda Humanitarian Award comes on the back of other recent honours in South Africa from the Conscious Companies group and from the Ministry of Forestry, Fisheries and Environment. This is also a continuation of the deep bond between Mohanji and the Zulu people, considering his earlier honour of the “Zulu Peace Warrior Stick” by His Majesty King Goodwill Zwelithini, descendent of Zulu King Shaka, typically presented to people entrusted with the peace of the land. Mohanji is also a recipient of the Sivananda World Peace Award from the Sivananda World Peace Foundation, for his ceaseless work and continued commitment to the upliftment and care for all species on earth.
