I do not like those who think of the past of India as just junk.
00:05
There is stuff in the past that you must immensely respect.
00:09
We are talking of the Gita, we are talking of the Upanishads,
00:12
we are talking of our great philosophers and mathematicians and scientists.
00:16
Why must we not be proud of them?
00:18
I'm proud of a Karnav, an Ashtavakra, a Kapil, a Kanad.
00:23
Obviously, all the Rishis of the Upanishads.
00:25
They are the ones I'm proud of.
00:27
I'm proud of Sushruta.
00:28
I'm proud of Aryabhatta.
00:29
They are the ones I'm really proud of.
00:31
There is a lot in our past we can justifiably be proud of.
00:34
And I've just thrown a few names at you.
00:37
There are dozens of such great names, but they are not valued.
