Bharat Mata : The naming of India

Bharat Mata : The naming of India

A Story by Blue Lotus

The children of a newly rising India love their motherland as deeply as previous generations — perhaps even more. But they will not blindly accept what is imposed upon them. They will not swallow what is fed to them without question. They are not robots or clones. They are the children of a marvelous dawn, the ones destined to carry India forward toward her true calling, as revealed by Sri Aurobindo.

This book is for them. It speaks to their questions: Why is our land called Bharat? Who are we, the people of India? Who were the Aryanas, and where did we come from? What is Sanatana Dharma, and how does one become a true Indian?

These questions are answered by Tejas Sir, who arrives in a classroom known for its rebellious spirit mischievous, volatile, and prone to sudden eruptions. With the regular teacher absent, he steps in to guide them, not with disci- pline alone, but with insight and truth.
