The great heritage of Indian Culture

The great heritage of Indian Culture:a speech in English by Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan


A land which could survive all the torrential invasions from outside for not less than 1,000 years. A land which could protect all it’s heritage when other civilization failed. A land, our mother land which could protect who came to our land as refuge; it gave all the freedom, wisdom to all world. That’s the great heritage of India. India always welcomed all noble thoughts and accepts all. Indians always prayed let all the living beings around the world be live happily. When the western philosophy says Survival of the fittest, Bharat says survival of the noblest. This is why still Indian culture survives. Since we are sons of India, our mother, it’s our duty-dharma to protect our motherland (mother).
