From time immemorial, India has been the birthplace of religion and culture. Bharat Mata is home to hundreds of Rishis, Sages and Gurus who continuously nurtured the spiritual legacy of this land with valuable scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita. The epics Mahabharata and Ramayana have been wellsprings of ethics and philosophy, often guiding rulers in their duties. The Upanishads and millions of shlokas have kept alive our faith and belief in God.
