If you need the session on the view, you will need to add the implicit request (implicit request: play.api.mvc.RequestHeader). So your code will be something like

    @import play.api.Play.current
    @import play.api.i18n.Messages.Implicits._
    @import play.api.mvc.Session
    @import play.api.mvc.Request
    @()(implicit request: play.api.mvc.RequestHeader)

    @index("Hi"){
       <h2>
         Welcome  @request.session.get("mysession")
       </h2>

    }
