Lets Celebrate This Day.

The Day That Gave Us The Freedom Of Thought, Action, Faith And Speech
The mystic aura of India and the enigma that she has captured the imagination and fancy of great minds. Take a look at what they have to
say about India.
"Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been
broken up into fragments by
narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from
the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches
its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary
desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is lead forward by thee
into ever-widening thought and action-
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father,
let my country awake."
"GEETANJALI" -Rabindranath Tagore

"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

"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)

"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

 "If there is one place on the face of earth where all the dreams of living men have found a home from the very earliest days when man
began the dream of existence, it is India." - French scholar Romain Rolland

"When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how God created this universe everything else seems so superfluous". - Albert Einstein

"India - The land of Vedas, the remarkable works contain not only religious ideas for a perfect life, but also facts which science has proved
true. Electricity, radium, electronics, airship, all were known to the seers who founded the Vedas". - Wheeler Wilcox (American poet)

"The land of dreams and romance, of fabulous wealth and fabulous poverty, of splendour and rags, of palaces and hovels, of famine and
pestilence, of genii and giants and Aladdin lamps, of tigers and elephants, the cobra and the jungle, the country of hundred nations and a
hundred tongues, of a thousand religions and two million gods, cradle of the human race, birthplace of human speech, mother of history,
grandmother of legend, great-grandmother of traditions, whose yesterday's bear date with the modering antiquities for the rest of nations -
the one sole country under the sun that is endowed with an imperishable interest for alien prince and alien peasant, for lettered and
ignorant, wise and fool, rich and poor, bond and free, the one land that all men desire to see, and having seen once, by even a glimpse,
would not give that glimpse for the shows of all the rest of the world combined". - Mark Twain
