I am really excited and don't know where to start.... This is actually my humble attempt...Forgive me for my mistakes...I am proud to be an Indian! Love you India...
Of all the cultures of the world known to man, Indian culture is perhaps the oldest, and, according to many historians, the mother of all cultures. Scientific history has yet to discover much about India and to correct many of its notions which are inconsistent with Indian traditions well-preserved in Sanskrit works.
India has a rich and diverse philosophical tradition dating back to the composition of the Upanishads in the later Vedic period, the oldest of these constitute "...the earliest philosophical compositions of the world."
"She is grave and old and stupendous. Her accents are for the calm and gracious. Her temples are laden with symbolism....and internal beauties. It is true, that India is royal...India has been royal at heart from her very foundations of her memory."
India's greatness is in her humility; her weakness is her strength. She is both wiser and more effective than the West.
The Legends
“My Life is My Message” --- Mahatma Gandhi
The way he gave shape and character to India's freedom struggle is
worthy of a standing ovation. Mahatma Gandhi played a pivotal role in the freedom struggle of India.
Our Beloved Bapu,
He, the saint of Peace and Nonviolence,
Taught the world at large;
That hatred and violence Bring nothing else but curse,
"Rise, awake and shake off the slavery”
The Immortal Philosopher Of India --- Swami Vivekananda
From time to time many philosophers were born in India who carried forward the tradition of truth seeking Vedic saints. Swami Vivekananda is the present age representative of those traditional values. He was the epitome of loyalty human ideals of generosity, kindness, celibacy, etc. For him even a small creature was a part of the Supreme Being.
His power of contention was incomparable. The whole world was impressed by this personality at the Chicago World Religion Congress. After this he gave discourses in various countries of the western world. As a result the true picture of Indian Vedanta emerged before the world.
In Praise of India.
Our sublimest delusion is that India is backward. This predicates, of course, that we are progressive. If backwardness and progress depend on the rate at which one can gobble up vanities perhaps India does not need our aid.....India's devotion to being good rather than being clever comes nearer the heart of a true civilization. Cleverness dies on the tongue like a social pleasantry, goodness echoes round the universe in an un extinguishable reality. We in the West are too busy to see that science without soul is like words without meaning.---W. J. Grant
When I read Bhagavad Gita and reflect about how God created this Universe everything else seems so superfluous.
We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.
---Albert Einstein
After the conversations about Indian Philosophy with Tagore some of the ideas that had seemed so crazy suddenly made much more sense. That was a great help for me.---Werner Karl Heisenberg
(German theoretical physicist and one of the key creators of quantum mechanics)
From the Vedas we learn a practical art of surgery, medicine, music, house building under which mechanized art is included. They are encyclopedia of every aspect of life, culture, religion, science, ethics, law, cosmology and meteorology.---William James, American Author
India is, the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grand mother of tradition. our most valuable and most instructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only.---Mark Twain, American author
India was the motherland of our race, and Sanskrit the mother of Europe's languages: she was the mother of our philosophy; mother, through the Arabs, of much of our mathematics; mother, through the Buddha, of the ideals embodied in Christianity; mother, through the village community, of self-government and democracy. Mother India is in many ways the mother of us all.
It is true that even across the Himalayan barrier India has sent to the west, such gifts as grammar and logic, philosophy and fables, hypnotism and chess, and above all numerals and the decimal system.
India will teach us the tolerance and gentleness of mature mind, understanding spirit and a unifying, pacifying love for all human beings.
---Will Durant, American historian
Our present knowledge of the nervous system fits in so accurately with the internal description of the human body given in the Vedas (5000 years ago). Then the question arises whether the Vedas are really religious books or books on anatomy of the nervous system and medicine.---B.G. Rel
If I were asked under what sky the human mind has most fully developed some of its choicest gifts, has most deeply pondered on the greatest problems of life, and has found solutions, I should point to India.--- Max Mueller, German scholar
The surgery of the ancient Indian physicians was bold and skillful. A special branch of surgery was dedicated to Rhinoplasty or operations for improving deformed ears, noses and forming new ones, which European surgeons have now borrowed.
---Sir W. Hunter, British Surgeon
India Conquered and dominated China culturally for 20 centuries without ever having to send a single soldier across her border---Hu Shih
(Chinese Philosopher, Essayist and Diplomat)
The Indian way of life provides the vision of the natural, real way of life. We veil ourselves with unnatural masks. On the face of India are the tender expressions which carry the mark of the Creator's hand---George Bernard Shaw
