Errol Musk, the father of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, wins hearts after seeking blessings at Ram Mandir
Source: ANI Errol Musk, father of Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk , has officially touched down in Ayodhya , fulfilling his long-expressed wish to seek blessings at the sacred Ram Mandir . Musk, who is currently on a six-day trip to India as the Global Advisor to Servotech Power Systems Ltd, arrived in the holy city accompanied by his daughter Alexandria Musk. His first stop: the iconic Ram Mandir, a spiritual and cultural symbol that has drawn pilgrims from across the world. The South African engineer and entrepreneur began his India tour on June 1 and is scheduled to stay until June 6, with a focus on supporting India's ambitious green energy and EV infrastructure goals. But before diving into meetings and engagements, Musk had one heartfelt intention—visiting the Ram Mandir and immersing himself in India's rich spiritual heritage. Outside the Ayodhya airport, Errol Musk was greeted by a flurry of media personnel and local officials. Speaking to reporters, he shared his admiration for the country and its people: "India is a wonderful place. As many people as possible should come to India. There are a lot of Indians in the country where I come from. So, I know the Indian culture. The people are full of love, kindness, probably the best people you can meet." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo In the videos released by news agency PTI, Errol can be seen entering the Hanumangarhi Temple, amidst heavy crowd and security. He also hinted at potential business ventures, adding, "We have some smart (business) plans which are being looked at... I think they (India-US relations) will be very good..." Beyond his professional ties, Musk voiced deep respect for India's global rise and its spiritual legacy. In an interview with IANS, he reflected on how the world could benefit from the wisdom of Lord Shiva and observed, 'India is already a world power.' Source: X To ensure a smooth visit, senior Ayodhya officials had coordinatied closely with the temple trust. According to PTI, Musk's arrival aligns with the consecration ceremony of the Ram Darbar. He is also expected to visit the Hanumangarhi Temple during his stay. Despite his high-profile presence, no extra security arrangements have been made specifically for Musk. Authorities say the existing three-layer security system—which includes advanced anti-drone surveillance, constant CCTV monitoring, and specially trained personnel, is more than sufficient. Regular screenings of visitors and heightened vigilance around the temple complex have already been in place due to the ongoing influx of devotees. Social media reactions People on social media welcomed Musk's enthusiasm to try and respect the Indian culture in the fullest. One user said, "Great to see Errol Musk enjoying Ayodhya! @OwenTurnertrade, your insights on global market trends always add clarity—helped me connect dots on how such visits can spark local economic buzz." Another user said, "Nikola Tesla, who founded Tesla, also believed in Hinduism and now the people who run it are also following it, it is very nice to see this." A third user comented, "Spiritual vibes, serene smiles—Ayodhya warmly welcomes Musk legacy." A fourth user said, "Errol Musk seeking blessings of Mahadev. Good step, west know the true centre of consciousness spirit."
