The Bhārat.org Project
The survival and prosperity of Bhārat as a nation is intimately linked to a sense of integral unity and cultural idenity among Her people.
Thanks to the wisdom and courage of our rishis, leaders and warriors, Bhārat has successfully defended several attacks on Her territorial integrity and Dharma over the centuries. Today however, She faces a new set of challenges - the threat of knowledge imperialism, intellectual domination, bio-piracy and cultural extinction. This threat emanates from multiple sources and manifests in various forms - colonial education system, pseudo-secularism, satellite television, globalization, foreign direct investment, multinational corporate hegemony, consumerism, and religious conversions are some of them.
Our goal is to face this threat head-on by spreading awareness about Indian knowledge systems and facilitating dialogue on subjects of national interest. Our mission is to educate, inspire and enlighten the world about Indian philosophies, sciences, history, music, languages, literature and arts all of which are rooted in the Dhārmic traditions of Bhārat.
ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय । तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय । मृत्योर्मामृतं गमय ।।
The Aspiration..
India of the ages is not dead nor has she spoken her last creative word; she lives and has still something to do for herself and the human peoples. And that which must seek now to awake is not an anglicised oriental people, docile pupil of the West and doomed to repeat the cycle of the occident's success and failure, but still the ancient immemorial Shakti recovering her deepest self, lifting her head higher towards the supreme source of light and strength and turning to discover the complete meaning and a vaster form of her Dharma.
- Sri Aurobindo
