Conclusion |
|
|
|
|
As it is said , stagnant water becomes stale or foul . Similarly , if we as an individual or a family or a Samaj , becomes stagnant then our development or advancement will become sluggish and dull .
So , let us not remain behind . From the humble village of our ancestors , we have moved for a better way of life and hence , let us march forward and make the whole world our home and our family - hky^ ¥ h Ly $ Vy $ çbL „$
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam ( from “ vasudha ”, the earth ; “ iva ”, is ; and “ kutumbakam ”, family ), a Sanskrit phrase that means that the whole world is one single family .
The concept originates in the Vedic scripture Maha Upanishad ( Chapter 6 , Verse 72 ):
Ae „ bÞ^yfe „ “¡ rs NZ “ p gOyQ ¡ skp „ Dv $ pfQqfsp “ p „ sy hky^ ¥ h Ly $ Vy $ çbL „$
ayam bandhurayam neti ganana laghuchetasam udaracharitanam tu vasudhaiva kutumbakam .
Only the narrow-minded discriminates saying : one person is related to me and another is not . For broad-minded , the entire world constitutes but a family .
