I Am Indian
To Such Wheresoever They Be, India, The Motherland And Eternal Mine Of Spirituality, Stands Transfigured, A Beacon Of Hope To Every One In Search Of Him Who Is The Only Real Existence In A Universe Of Vanishing Shadows…

Those whose only aim is to barter the energies of life for gold, or name, or any other enjoyment; those to whom the tramp of embattled cohorts is the only manifestation of power; those to whom the enjoyment of the senses is the only bliss that life can give – to these, India will appear as an immense desert whose every blast is deadly to the development of life – as it is known to them.
But to those whose thirst for life has been quenched forever by drinking from the stream of immortality that flows from far away beyond the world of the senses, whose souls have cast away – as a serpent its slough – the threefold bondages of lust, gold and fame; who, from their height of calmness, look with love and compassion upon the petty quarrels and jealousies and fights for little gilded puff-balls, filled with dust, called ‘enjoyment’ by those under a sense-bondage; to those whose accumulated force of past good deeds has caused the scales of ignorance to fall off from their eyes, making them see through the vanity of name and fame – to such wheresoever they be, India, the motherland and eternal mine of spirituality, stands transfigured, a beacon of hope to every one in search of Him who is the only real Existence in a universe of vanishing shadows…
