One other suggestion that I should like to make in all humility is that in framing our Constitution we should invoke God’s blessings as is done by every householder when he performs some big ceremony or when some great Yajna has to be performed. And what greater Yajna could there be than this in the new India that is born after so much travail? I therefore suggest that at the commencement of the Constitution we should say that we invoke God’s blessings in this holy task, and at the end of the Preamble also we should use some such words as “So help us God”. At a time of great trial facing his country Rudyard Kipling devoutly wrote:
Lord God of gods,
Be with us yet,
Lest we forget, Lest we forget.
