India got freedom but still we are lagging behind in comparision to other countries who also got independence in the some era as we got. We are still struggling to achieve what we should have attained much earlier. What we see on the surface of reality is the opposite of what is there on paper. We discover that we have not moved forward but pushed back. There is nothing unusual in the problems of hunger, want, health, hygiene, water supply and education. But what is unusual is that our efforts have not borne fruit because these had not been honest and sincere.
‘Resurgent India’ is the flight of our imagination. It encompasses the elements of science, sacrifice, god, religion, spirituality and knowledge and it can institutionalise a human being into god from within the common citizens and society. Nation pervades our soul, mind and heart. We have always kept this sense alive. We have neither lost sight of our culture nor shut ourselves to new ideas. This collection has the vision of a Bharat singed with the sensitive spirit of Antyodaya, moving up and fast.
The ‘Resurgent India’ which is in your hand is the result of collective efforts. In preparing it, constructive efforts of many practitioners of word, worshippers of Saraswati and those saints who are engaged in taking Bharat Mata to the highest level have been employed.
