The cancellation on
the First Day Cover depicts the motto of RSS which is in Sanskrit and quoted from the हितोपदेशः (Hitopadeśaḥ) of Nārāyaṇa Paṇdita.
स्वयमेव मृगेन्द्रता
svayam-eva mṛgendratā
"Find within yourself the strength of the lion"
नाभिषेको न संस्कारः सिंहस्य क्रियते वने ।
विक्रमार्जितसत्त्वस्य स्वयमेव
मृगेन्द्रता ॥
na abhiṣeko na saṃskārah siṃhasya kriyate vane
vikramārjita-satvasya svayam-eva mṛgendratā
There is no sacrament or coronation (abhiṣeka) ceremony performed to declare that the Lion is the king of the jungle. It becomes the king by its own attributes and prowess.
