मैत्रीं भजत अखिलहृज्जेत्रीम्
Maithreem Bhajatha Akila Hrujjethreem
“Serve with Friendship and Humility, which will Win the Hearts of Everyone”
The word Mitra and theme for Mitra CanCare was derived from the song / hymn Maithreem Bhajatha written by Paramaachaarya Sri Chandrashekarendra Saraswathi Swamigal of Kanchi Kamakoti Mutt. The first line of the song is the everlasting source of inspiration for Mitra CanCare.
