Not a duplicate, if you look for adding a message to starting a terminal this is the first hit you would never find those other questions with a regular google search +1 for the question– Mister VerlegCommented Oct 30, 2016 at 20:26

You can add it to your ~/.bashrc. That file is read each time a new interactive shell is launched so it will be displayed each time you launch a terminal, or log in to the console or simply run bash. For example, you could add these lines:
echo "Hi, how are 'ya?"

its work but not when i open a new session terminal. it just work when i login with superuser.– smseCommented Mar 2, 2015 at 11:51

after login with superuser, in .bashrc append this line : echo "Hi, how are 'ya?"– smseCommented Mar 2, 2015 at 11:56

@smse why did you log in as the super user? You should do this as your regular user. Otherwise, you are modifying root's
.bashrcand not yours.– terdonCommented Mar 2, 2015 at 11:57
