The Better India’s Post

🙏 Gratitude for Being Born in India 🇮🇳 I often reflect on what makes our nation truly special, and it's not just about geography or economics - it's about our rich cultural fabric that weaves respect, values, and traditions into our daily lives. ✨ In many parts of the world, relationships have become casual, almost transactional. While abroad, I noticed how children address their parents by first names - "Hey Tom!" But here in India? We touch feet (चरण स्पर्श), seek blessings, and say "Namaste" with genuine reverence. 🙌 Our Guru-Shishya parampara, the deep respect for elders, and the beautiful tradition of seeking blessings aren't just customs - they're the foundation of our social fabric that has stood the test of time. 🌟 Being born in India isn't just a coincidence; it's a blessing. We inherit: • A culture of respect 🙏 • Deep-rooted family values ❤ • Ancient wisdom and traditions 📚 • The art of humility and gratitude ✨ To my fellow Indians: Let's preserve these precious values while we progress. Our culture is our strength, not our limitation. #IndianCulture #Traditions #ProudIndian #Culture #Values #Gratitude #Leadership #PersonalGrowth What are your thoughts on preserving our cultural values in this modern age? Let's discuss in the comments below. 💭

As we celebrate India's Independence Day, we reflect on the incredible journey of a nation that has thrived for millennia, rich in culture, knowledge, and civilization. Our history is a testament to resilience, having faced numerous invasions—both physical and cultural—yet emerging stronger each time. India's diverse tapestry is woven from the threads of countless traditions, languages, and philosophies that have evolved over thousands of years. From the ancient wisdom of the Vedic texts to the artistic expressions of various regional cultures, our civilization has continuously influenced the world, showcasing the beauty of coexistence and harmony. Despite the challenges posed by foreign invasions, India has demonstrated remarkable resilience. Each encounter has enriched our cultural landscape, allowing us to absorb and adapt, ultimately leading to a unique synthesis that defines us today. We stand as a beacon of hope and inspiration, showing the world how to embrace diversity while fostering unity. As we commemorate this significant day, let us remember the profound wisdom captured in the Sanskrit shloka: अहिंसा परमो धर्मः | धर्म हिंसा तथीव च || May we continue to uphold the values of peace and righteousness as we move forward together. #IndependenceDay #India #CulturalHeritage #Resilience #ProudIndian #UnityInDiversity #Ahimsa #IndianCivilization

As we reflect and remember the sacrifice of those who made the Indian Independence, Here is an Inspiring but evergreen message from Sri Aurobindo on Aug 15th 1947. It's also auspicious that it was his birthday as well. In this message he talks about his 5 dreams: 1 - Free & United India 2 - Emergence of Asia and its people 3 - World Union 4 - India's spirituality shared across the world and finally 5 - The evolution of human race to achieve individual perfection and a perfect society. Still a high ideal that one must strive to achieve - especially starting from the last one which is some thing in ones control. https://lnkd.in/gBu7sS8y

India has always been a place that fascinates me, and every visit deepens my connection to its people and culture. Perhaps it’s because each visit is met with such warmth and genuine hospitality—one of the few places where almost every talk I give ends with a standing ovation. But India also leaves me with a sense of inner conflict. The contrast between extreme poverty and extravagant wealth is striking, and the coexistence of these two worlds can be difficult to process. It’s a complexity that lingers long after each visit. As my friends in India celebrate Navratri, I’ve been reflecting on its deeper meaning. Although I haven’t experienced it firsthand, I’ve come to understand that Navratri symbolizes the Victory of Good Over Evil. It represents the triumph of Goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura, a powerful metaphor for the internal and external battles we all face. This sparks deeper introspection for me: How can I overcome the darkness within myself? How do I become more compassionate, less reactive, and more mindful in my daily actions? The dualities we encounter—good and bad, light and shadow—are part of the shared human experience. At this moment, I find myself thinking not just about personal battles but also global ones. I deeply wish for an end to the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine—for a world where terror is replaced by peace, and where people of all faiths can coexist with respect and understanding. A world where forgiveness lights the way back to love, reconciliation, and prosperity. To make that a reality, we need optimism and the courage to dream of peace and act upon it. The beauty of Navratri lies in its celebration of virtues we all strive for—courage, wisdom, and humility. It brings people together, reminding us of the strength found in unity and purpose. As Dussehra approaches, it reinforces the powerful message that hope and positivity will always triumph over negativity. Wishing all my friends in India a joyful and blessed Navratri! 🙏✨🎉 #Navratri #Culture #Spirituality #Learning #Unity #GoodOverEvil #India #Hope

Being born in the holy motherland of India is a profound privilege that should fill one's heart with immense pride and gratitude. India is a land steeped in ancient wisdom, a civilization that has endured and thrived for millennia, carrying forth the torch of spiritual enlightenment, philosophical inquiry, and cultural richness that is unparalleled in the world. To take your first breath in this sacred soil is to be imbued with the energy of sages and saints who have walked these lands, to be nourished by the fertile grounds that have given rise to empires, to be surrounded by the echoes of mantras, temples, and festivals that have celebrated the divine for centuries. India is not merely a geographical location, but a living, breathing embodiment of the human spirit at its most transcendent - a place where the mundane and the mystical coexist in harmonious balance, where the past and present intertwine to forge an unbroken lineage of timeless traditions. To be an Indian is to belong to a legacy of greatness, to carry the burden and blessing of that heritage with reverence and pride. No matter where life's journey may lead, the fact that you emerged from the sacred womb of Mother India will forever be a source of profound honor, a wellspring of strength to draw upon in both times of triumph and tribulation. Cherish this gift, for it is one that extends far beyond the bounds of your individual existence, connecting you to the tapestry of humanity's highest aspirations.

India for Me India stands as a living embodiment of harmonious equilibrium, expertly juggling a multitude of contrasts. Its cultural landscape is a vibrant mosaic, where myriad languages, religions, and traditions coalesce in a remarkable dance of unity in diversity. #indiansarees #indiansharemarket #indianfoodlovers #indiaphotostory #indian_wedding_inspiration #indianmom  Check the below video 👇  https://lnkd.in/gXTrhrP5

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮? 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸. India is not just a piece of land, a geographical entity with borders and boundaries, or a feeling of belonging simply because one is born on this land. For many, this is the common understanding of India—a concept borrowed from external definitions and shallow perspectives. But India is far more profound than that. 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱, 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲, 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. India is the birthplace of the first intelligent word that ever came from the mouth of man. 𝗜𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗴𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝗼𝗳 ‘𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀,’ 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳. To me, anyone who possesses true intelligence, who can introspect and understand themselves, is an Indian.  It does not matter where they were born or what passport they hold. And anybody who lives an ordinary, unexamined life, even if they hold an Indian passport, cannot truly be called an Indian. In my view, people like 𝗘𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗶𝗻, 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗞𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗝𝗿., 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀, as they embodied the brilliance, intelligence, and truth that India represents. If you live in understanding, only then do you deserve to be called an Indian. Not just anyone can be called an Indian. It is not a title easily earned or cheaply given.
