Why is India Great?

raju · 22-11-2012, 08:21 AM

What is the reason behind immortality of Bharat? For thousands of years, how our country India has tolerated slaughtering of Human Beings, loots and manner less deeds by foreign invaders? There is definitely something that has made India great, tolerant and powerful. If you ask anyone, “Is India great?”, his answer would be, “yes”. Children shout loudly My India Is Great ! A leader says during his speech — My India Is Great ! When seasons of patriotism like 15 August or 26 Jan. come, then everywhere its visible — My India Is Great ! Since my childhood, I have listened for so many times — My India Is Great !

On Mahatma Gandhi’s birthday, a Prabhaat Pheri used to pass and we were also being taught to say loudly, Mahatma Gandhi ZINDABAAD, vande matram, I love my India, India is great ! etc. holding a National Flag in our hands. At that stage of my life, I was not aware of the importance of TIRANGA and didn’t even know the meaning of VANDE MATRAM and My India Is Great !, which we were shouting loudly. I just loved saying and doing that.

Since my childhood, my attitude is to put a question mark after every topic. In every topic, my attitude is to ask what, why, how etc. One day, I heard my madam saying, My India Is Great !. I responded quickly and asked, “Why?”. She got frustrated and shouted, “What do you mean by – WHY?… If I am saying it is so, then it is so. “I inquired further, “Maam ! there must be some good reasons behind the greatness of India. Why is India Great?” She said, “This is a big country, there are so many languages, there are so many seasons, there are so many religions, there are so many rivers, there are so many mountains, there are so many people, there are so many traditions, there are so many dresses, there are so many dishes, there are so many ‘this’, there are so many ‘that’. Likewise, she started telling many ‘so manies’. But, except one or two ‘so manies’, any other fact didn’t give me a satisfactory answer. This thing pinched me a lot. From that very day, I started finding, “Why is India Great?

And today, after some research, I can tell you answer of this question. Before reading this piece of article, this fact spoken by you that My India Is Great ! was just like a base less building which might be fallen by the storm of suspections because its written in our scriptures “SANSHAYATMA VINASHYATI“.

And this article will put an end to all your doubts and then you can say with a pure heart, My India Is Great !

India is the most ancient land in the world. Can anybody tell how old India and Sanatan Dharma are? According to Indian philosophy, the definition of Dharma is SANATAN, which neither has a beginning, nor an end. That is immortal and more than that living in a place, which is world’s most ancient and immortal religion is a matter of pride and honour. That is why –

My India Is Great !

Indian culture says, “VASUDHAIVA KUTUMBAKAM“, which means the whole world is my family. India has such a great lesson for the world. This is the reason why — My India Is Great !

India prays :

Sarve bhavantu sukhinah, Sarve santu niramaya,
Sarve bhadraani pashyantu, Ma kashchid dukh bhagbhavet

This couplet explains that may everyone be happy, may everyone be healthy, everyone looks for others’ good will and there should be no grief. Bharat is the only country where people pray so. That’s why, I can say — My India Is Great !

Dharma dhvajaa ka vaahak, Ganga ka prachin kinaara hai,
Devoon ko bhi durlabh hai jo, Aisa desh hamaara hai

In only India, a miraculous river Ganges flows which turns a sinner into a pious and pure soul. Today, our modern scientists have also proved that the water of river Ganges has such a super natural power, if it is kept in an open or a closed vessel even for millions of years, it wouldn’t be affected by any infection. It will always remain pure. From where does a river get qualities? Obviously from soil. I means, our soil itself has such qualities which can purify anything.

When Swami Vivekananda returned back to India from America, he rushed quickly moving the crowd aside and started kissing the soil of India just after the Air craft landed on the Indian land. Seeing the people getting amazed, he told them that by doing this, he is making himself pure as after a foreign tour for such a long time, he has become impious. A country where its citizens start their morning by putting its soil on their foreheads as a token of respect for their country and a country whose brave soldiers sacrifice their lives with a smile on their faces only by getting strength by holding the Indian soil in their hands, that country must be a great. That’s why — My India Is Great !
