Quotes

• “Land of ancient India
  Cradle of humanity, hail
  Hail ! revered motherland,
  Whom centuries of brutal invasions
  Have not yet buried
  Under the dust of oblivion.
  Hail ! Fatherland of faith,
  Of love, of poetry and of science,
  May we hail a revival of thy past
  In our Western future !”
  • The Bible in India, as quoted in K. M. Talreja, Holy Vedas and Holy Bible: A Comparative Study, New Delhi: Rashtriya Chetana Sangathan, 2000
