Mukesh Ambani Words for PDEU Graduates

On Tuesday, January 28th, 2025, Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani delivered a speech to Pandit Deendayal Energy University (PDEU) students during the 12th convocation. He shared five guiding principles for success: the cultivation of passion, lifelong learning, the exchange of knowledge, the establishment of meaningful relationships, and the preservation of family ties.

Ambani commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi, referring to him as "Gurudev," and commended his vision for India's energy self-reliance and renewable energy ambitions. He emphasised that India will soon become the world's third-largest economy and encouraged students to contribute to sustainable development.

"As you chart your path forward, allow me to suggest five guiding principles that have helped me. One, discover your true passion. Find what ignites your soul. When you dedicate your energy to something you love, work becomes joy, and challenges become opportunities for growth. Two, commit to lifelong learning. In this age of rapid technological advancement, the willingness to learn continuously is not an option. It is a must for survival and success. Therefore, embrace curiosity and never stop seeking knowledge," Mukesh Ambani said.

"Three, inculcate the virtue of sharing. Know that knowledge grows when it is shared. By helping others rise, you elevate yourself and build a community of mutual growth and progress. Fourth, invest in meaningful relationships. Genuine connections - "Dil Ke Rishtey" - are the foundation of personal and professional success. Build trust, foster respect, focus on character-building, and nurture relationships that stand the test of time..."

"Five, cherish and nurture your family bonds. Family gives purpose and direction to life. It is within the family that you learn values such as care, empathy, and resilience -- qualities that will shape your journey to success," he added.

Pandit Deendayal Energy University has a 100-acre campus in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Established in 2007, PDEU offers multiple engineering, arts, and management courses.

Mukesh Ambani told the students he can foresee that India will become the most prosperous nation in the world before the end of the current century.

He said that as India progresses, it also has a big responsibility, urging students to work for climate causes.

"We must not allow economic growth to endanger planet earth and further worsen the climate crisis," he said. He added that the transition from fossil fuels to clean and green energy must be accelerated.

"I am supremely confident that green technologies and green enterprises can reverse the ecological degradation and indeed make our planet more beautiful, more livable for future generations."
