Chapter 2: The Evolution of Culture (SAMSKARAM)-2.

========================================================================

1.



The status of culture is that heightened position which a person maintains above oneself. You have to rise above yourself in order that you may be regarded as a truly cultured person. Culture requires you to be in a state of harmony with the conditions prevailing in life. 

#A cultured person rarely comes in conflict with conditions prevailing in life. The malleable, flexible, harmonious, affectionate, very considerate behaviour of a person, which is the characteristic of true culture, makes the person a super-person, a super-individual. 

#An educated person differs from a cultured person almost in the same way as a politician differs from a statesman. 

##We have many politicians, but statesmen are very few. 

###A statesman is a person with a wide vision of things who also looks to the future of the nation, not merely the present, and knows what is good for the nation for all time to come, not only for the present moment. 

#####But the politicians are thinking of the present moment only; they have got a very narrow outlook of conditions prevailing today, and they do not bother about tomorrow. 

#####A statesman is a highly cultured person, from the political point of view at least.

In a similar manner, generally speaking, true culture raises the dimension of the very outlook of the person above the individual human personal viewpoint. 

That is to say, culture raises you to a level which is able to bring about a rapprochement, or a reconciliation, between yourself and the world. There is no more conflict between yourself and other people, and no more conflict between you and the world outside. 

A cultured person does not come in conflict with anything. He is a cementing factor even where there is some conflict or disharmony. These were some of the ideas that I tried to place before you yesterday as a brief statement of what culture is.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.



Now we are expected to move in the direction of what our curriculum describes as India’s ancient culture. 

You have to bear in mind every day what you heard yesterday because whatever I will be telling you will be a continuation from what was told the previous day, and it may be difficult to go on repeating the same thing again and again. 

So please remember the brief outline of our discussion yesterday, the essentials of which I repeated today for your memory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I mentioned also that India has been considered as the repository of the most ancient of cultures. 

Why are there different cultures? 

Every country has its own background of some culture. India somehow or other, by a freak of nature or by some circumstance, happened to be the soil on which the earliest of cultures rose. 

What kind of culture rose?

#OPINION : "TEMPLES PRODUCE POSITIVE ENERGY"


#1. WE BHARATIYA VALUE OUR ANCIANT SAMSKARAM, THE ISLAMIC AND CHRISTIAN RULE COULD NOT BREAK THIS CULTURE;

#2. THEN DO WE ALLOW ANY INJURY TO OUR CULTURE ON LAME EXCUSE OF SECULARISM?

#3. WHEN FORIEGN RULE COULD NOT DAMAGE OUR SAMSKARAM, THEN WHO ARE THESE COMMUNISTS AND URBAN NAXALS, NATURE AUTOMATICALLY DEMOLISH THESE EVILS;

The Nehru-Gandhi dynasty starts with the Mughal man named Ghiyasuddin Ghazi. He was the City Kotwal i.e. police officer of Delhi prior to the uprising of 1857, under the Mughal rule. After capturing Delhi in 1857, in the year of the mutiny, the British were slaughtering all Mughals everywhere. The British made a thorough search and killed every Mughal so that there were no future claimant to the throne of Delhi. The Hindus on the other hand were not targeted by the British unless isolated Hindus were found to be siding with the Mughals, due to past associations. Therefore, it became customary for many Mohammedans to adopt Hindu names. So, the man Ghiyasuddin Ghazi (the word means kafir-killer) adopted- a Hindu name Gangadhar Nehru and thus saved his life by the subterfuge. Ghiyasuddin Ghazi apparently used to reside on the bank of a canal (or Nehr) near the Red Fort. Thus, he adopted the name ‘Nehru’ as the family name. Through out the world, we do not find any descendant other than that of Gangadhar, having the surname Nehru. The 13th volume of the “Encyclopedia of Indian War of Independence” (ISBN:81-261-3745-9) by M.K. Singh states it elaborately. The Government of India have been hiding this fact.
