Book Description

India is one of the most ancient civilizations. India is a land of many creeds; the cradle of mankind; the motherland of language; the mother of history; the grandmother of epics and the great grandmother of traditions. Our cultural heritage is ancient; vast; rich and blissful and its sources are—four Vedas; 18 Puraanas; 108 Upanishads; the Ramayana; the Mahabharata consisting of about one lakh verses; the Agamas of the Jains; the Tripitikas of the Buddhists; the Guru Granth Sahib of the Sikh brothers and the holy words of the pious saints of different regions. As the time has passed; lack of knowledge about the same has failed to create self pride and esteem for these. Also; unfortunately; during the last few centuries; due to external attacks on the country; particularly those by the British; India has lost its capacity of guiding the world. The newly educated generation of this country today is totally unaware of the culture; traditions; philosophy and life values of this country. Sources of Our Cultural Heritage will open the eyes of the people; trying to distance themselves from Hinduism. This book will let them know the great commonalities. It gives valuable knowledge and information about our vast and enriched cultural heritage in a very simple and lucid language.
