In the second episode, DVG gives us a captivating and heartwarming portrait of the innate strength of a Hindu joint family system and characterises it as a government of the people in the real sense.
The first episode of a series featuring an English adaptation of DVG’s lecture titled "Samskruti" delivered at All India Radio on May 10, 1957. It an invaluable piece of contemplation on the rapid changes that had occurred in the Hindu society over the past half century.
In this episode, DVG provides several eye-opening details about how pervasive corruption had become as early as 1949. We learn that the Dehradun Session of the Congress witnessed Nehru offering a pathetic apologia for this rot.
DVG narrates an ennobling anecdote of a poor village schoolteacher who did not mind his incredible hardships but wanted time for Svādhyāya or self-study. This is our remembrance of DVG on his 136th birthday.
Dr. B.G.L. Swamy narrates an eyewitness anecdote showing how successive Governments in Tamil Nadu deliberately pushed a distorted "Dravidian" ideology and killed the original Tamil culture.
The Hindu cultural sensibility must exercise immense caution before celebrating the material successes of Americanised or Westernised Indians who have lost touch with their roots.
