This is a speech by Sri. Claude Alvares in "India Inspires" - Claude is an environmentalist, founder of OFAI (Organic Farmers Association of India) and Other India Press (a publishing house of not so famous but important topics and authors). I know him personally through OFAI. His speech on Sri. Dharampal, Indian scientific heritage and his works is in this video.

This video is a must watch and educational. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B27IBNotwpE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B27IBNotwpE

Now if he himself said that "my wife will be the judge" - then that proved 3 things: i) the high amount respect he had for his wife and her scholarship, ii). in addition, he considered his wife's scholarship to be superior to hi...

I have been thinking recently about our state of temples. They have changed their forms from being cultural and binding factors to just business centres. mostly people who are visiting the temples are doing mechanical things. how can we revive the temples as discussion forums for arts, culture, social responsibilities from being just "transactional" in nature. there are satsangas being organized in the temples, but they just follow the bhakthi movement. how can we revive usage of sanskrit, learning of vedas, and then to create a more responsible generation than ours? ideas are welcome...

Some of the arguments have been popularly refuted.   Attention : This answer may be long for a rash reader, but shall benefit the actual person who needs to know facts.    Argument 1 : The linguistic centre of Gravity theory   By this theory, the linguistic centre of gravity must be in the area where there are maximum number of diversity of language exists.
