Who Are We? - A Quest for National Identity - Dr. Subramanian Swamy -

- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- In this #IndicTalk, Dr. #SubramanianSwamy discusses the need for a national identity for India. He tells us that how India is one of the oldest continuous civilizations in the world. While all other civilizations were wiped out, India still stands. Giving the examples of Persia and Greece, he says that these countries were converted to either Islam or Christianity but India is still about 82% Hindu and that is nothing short of a miracle. But even then, due to some policies followed by leaders of independent India, the youth of today's India is in an identity crisis, wondering who he is.
He says that every great nation in the world has a clear idea about its national identity. Giving the example of the U.S., he says that while anyone can live in the U.S. the defining national identity of the U.S. is White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant Christian. He argues a similar clarity about national identity in the case of India.
He differentiates between nationality and citizenship. He says that anyone, following any religion, can be a citizen of India, be it a Hindu or Muslim. But when it comes to national identity of India it is essentially Hindu. Taking many witty forays into present crisis and historical journey of India, he argues for a strong national identity of India, based on Hindu culture and ethos.

Dr Swamy is 'Bharata Ratna' in real sense.
I can listen to this man 1000 times in loop.. his articulation of word, understanding of the context, holding the audience breaths during the talks are AWESOME... I'm too much of privileged to have chance to listen to you.. bless to internet.
I too can listen to him thousand times. Such a great personality 🙏🙏
I can only request Dr. Swami to please take care of our history education being provided in various universities and schools. Please take care of this issue and make a law for all Indians to read same history and actual history too (not made up History that We were taught).

@@yuvaskkiller5927 Brother, I'm also a tamilian, but isn't it true that some of our words are exactly same as Sanskrit? I don't believe tamil came from sanskrit, but they are siblings of same mother that is India. In the past, sramanas from tamil used to go around the world with their vast knowledge on sciense, maths, philosophy and what not, even to europe. There is a story of sramana scholar from our state who got killed in Europe. Both tamilians and sanskrit people used to exchange ideas and knowledge, so that doesn't mean sanskrit owns tamil. But we have huge similarities.
Imagine i have a brother and we both exchange our foods, books, money etc. Where is the problem in that? Isn't it wonderful to say that Sanskrit And Tamil Are Our Countries Prides?
@@Ragnar638 Yes I Accept that bro and For Every Each Common words we have Independent words Also . My Conclusion is both are different Languages and For Some Purposes it Mingle with Tamil . That's it bro.....
There is no doubt it. Dr. Swamy is a great man to be born in our country. We are proud of him.
Subramanium Swamy needs no posts in the Government but he is still the star and guiding force of the Government wherever he is. This man is self less but committed to the cause. Swamy will be remembered as the man to have contributed to our cultural identity.
Ain't nobody like Dr. Subramaiyan "Swag" Swamy

@@yuvaskkiller5927The first written record of Sanskrit can be found in Rigveda, a collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns, which was written in somewhere around 2nd millennium B.C. According to studies, Sanskrit forms the base for many European languages.
This is based on German historians work, particularly Max Muller, Konrad Elst and many more.Vedas are essentially the heard ones and were described as “Shruti.” It is only about 5000-7000 years ago that Vedas were penned down for the benefit of mankind. However, Vedas existed several thousands of years ago before being actually written in textual format.Rig Veda is regarded as the oldest religious text in the world. It has a collection of 1028 Vedic hymns in Sanskrit and as much as 10,600 verses in all which are organized into ten books known as mandalas. Undoubtedly, Vedas are the oldest religious texts in the world.
***According to archeological research, Saraswati River dried up and disappeared in North India around 5000 BC. So, considering these findings, Vedas must be at least 7000 years old (5000 BC) when Saraswati River did flow across North India.
We take an excerpt from Rig Veda (Book 3: Hymn 23:4) where Saraswati River is described as actually flowing.
“On man, on Apaya, Agni! On the rivers Drsadvati, Saraswati, shine richly.”****
***It is the oldest book in any Indo-European language and contains the earliest form of all Sanskrit mantras, dating back to 1500 BCE- 1000 BCE. Some scholars date the Rig Veda as early as 12000 BCE - 4000 BCE.****
Dr. B. R Ambedkar recognised this and wanted Sanskrit as India's national language. BJP will make it a reality.
Be cynical, I don't care. Truth is not biased to your egotistical pride. Facts are facts. I'm a Tamil Brahmin myself. Why would I be against Tamil? Being against Sanskrit is one thing and acknowledging it and being proud of Tamil is another.
Pls dont
The intro summarizes Hindu culture - it's a culture of seekers. We'll find our unique path through introspection and meditation - not by imitating others. Everyone has to put the effort into finding themselves - there is no shortcut!
He is an asset to this country 🔥
Can't miss Swami's speeches. Always get enlightenment when ever I hear sadhguru or swami.
Amazing Speech....best i ever heard before
🇮🇳👁️👁️🇮🇳 𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝘄𝗮𝗺𝘆 𝗣𝗵𝗗 | Even I'm from Singapore, but I never get bored listening to the Speech of Dr Subramanian Swamy! Much to learn from him the Eastern Wisdom, that isn't because he is a Vegetarian or because he was a Professor of ex-Oxford, but because he is very academic in his speech, and certainly he is highly Intellectual person in the Indian Political arena today! He also multi lingual who is capable of speaking in English, Hindi, Sanskrit, Chinese, and Tamil language! Therefore "HE IS EXTRAORDINARY" In my view!
I really enjoyed his talk . India (Bharat) needs such great patriots to inspire our next generations .
Beautiful, I really want to trace back my hindu roots and learn about my civilization
I wish everyone will. Every Muslim must do it while enjoying his islamic roots as well. To an Indic unity.
Dr. Swamy Ki Jai. Jai India. Bharat Mata Ki Jai. India first for every Indian citizen.
It was nice to know that Swami's wife is a Parsi and she is from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Even his daughter is married to a Muslim. He gave excellent speech on Unity of Indian Identity.
It is a sheer pleasure to listen to Dr. Seamy. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I heard Dr Swamy saying every thought / sentence of what he says in ‘WAW’ {WHO ARE WE} 100 times probably ….. being an ardent follower in many of his past speeches! I am sure many of you …… yet, one doesn’t get feeling of fatigue or repetitive boredom! …. that’s the greatness of this rare n passionate patriot of a great nation called 🇮🇳 India 🙏.
The kind of consistency he shows in his conviction and the manner in which he constructs his ‘talk’ to suit the occasion is fantastic n spellbound👏👏🏽✔️.
If an Indian wants to get educated on WAW, encompassing Indianness, civilisation n Hinduism, the ultimate authority is Dr. @swamy39. Certainly we are fortunate to have born in this Era to get the glimpses of Swami Vivekananda! Great learning 🌸🌼🌺 JNM Rao
How did he stood for 1 hour and gave speech ? Respect for your knowledge and dedication. Am 23 he’s 80 and I can’t seven stand for 30 minutes. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hats off Dr samy .

Just imaging him as the finance minister of India
A must for awareness of all Indians. Greatly appreciated 🙏👍.
It is heartening to hear that true Indian history will be taught in Indus University. It should be introduced to schools too from a young age where it will give great pride and understanding what being Indian is all about, and lead to self identity at an early age. Great to hear The panel members.
One of the brilliant scholars in modern India.
Speechless,,,
Tnx for presenting the fact of our civilization
No don't be speechless, share this lecture as much as possible.

@54.47 we can clearly notice the tears of man sitting right to swamy sir.. that is evidence of how Insightful it was. It's been always pleasure and proud to listen to swamy sir.
It always been a privilege to me listen to this great mind. Omg this man is awesome he is ocean of knowledge. Jaihind. Jai swamy
Sir, Gujaratis are so rational that we like to eat north,east,west, south (the most) bharat food ,,
Thank you for ur being our Jamaaii,,
Lovely portrait of Dr. Swamy by the students!
God bless you swamy....i have been a follower of his lectures....
The most underrated intellectual.
We are happy to have leader like Dr. Swamy who can integrate all Bharatiyas culturally, historically and all other components of human values.
Our Vedas, Upanishads, epics, Purana's, our culture, our tradition teaches one not to find "who are we" but "who am I ". If one tries to find out who am I, then he/she will live in peace and let others to live in peace. If one tries to find out who we are he/she Will be restless and wiil see the country is restless.
Thankyou sir for your amazing gyan....🚩🚩🚩🚩🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🚩🚩🚩🚩
Please make Sanskrit compulsory in schools. That way our youth can read our historical books from Indian point of view and become Sanskrit scholars. Sanskrit scholars are well paid in the west, but all these scholars are white.
>but all these scholars are white.
Are you white? Your name certainly seems like it.
Sanskrit!Are you an Indian of India or a migrant who made India your home
Really right, why German learn sunskrit, why Netherland learn Mahabharat
Yes all these Sanskrit scholars in the the west are whites who tend to distort the Sankrit texts at the first available opportunity.

Why there is only one Swamy.
We need more intellectual like him.
Long live. Dr. Swamy 💥💥🙏🙏

I would love it when someone says we are a Vedic civilization. The word Hindu although geographical, has been misunderstood as a religion and identity. The essence of Indian culture is Vedic, we are seekers of knowledge. We are one people, We are India, respect, love, and realise who we are.
Agree!!! Hindu was a word given to us by non-natives, just like caste. We are Vedic people. I have stopped using the word "Hindu" for the religion/culture.
Use Sanatan, We are Sanatani, following the eternal dharma.
Dr Subramanyaseamy is a God given gift to the Nation. Thank you God.

Amazing speech by Dr Subrahmanyam swami .
One and all should listen to this discussion, appreciation to Indus university for organising the session
Centuries before Jhansi laxmiBhai, Rani Chennamma a great queen Rani Rudramma of Kakatiya Dynasty ruled more than half of south India for three decades against all odds. Not only ruled she expanded her kingdom by defeating many male kings. Many historians forget her but how can Mr. Swamy ignore her to inspire the crowd.."?
Rani Abakka and many more. You can't enlist them all. NakKati raani from Himachal and many more.

Bad ass for enymies 👌😎😎🤙
Sir we need the real history in our books...
True, start also by changing the name of our country; Bharat.
Britishers named it India
@@sharmi9891 Though britishers named India but the name is good we must work on getting back our previous culture of bharat.we have to show the world what Bharat stands for with the name India.
Dr swami..thank you ..

Like to hear Swamiji's speech always and everytime it's a new thing I learn from the topics of his lecture. He is a inspirational gem of a person 🌹
Why dont hindu organizations come to villages motivate hindus folk about present situation in country tukde tukde gange
Because Hindus don't have organised institution in villages but once we get our temples free from govt control individuals from the region cam take the administration as trusteeship of the diety and we can use the income of the temple to bring up educational institutions, social institution, financial institution

Superb lovely sir. Salute
May be it's Swamiji's quest, as a Rajput we have a very rooted identity of self and surrounding and we live by keeping others around us rooted to depths as well. Until we are around these phases shall pass and go . .try remaining un-fluttered in the face of adversity, it shall help find out quickly.
In recent history- Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah belongs kuruba caste. Kanakadasa (1509-1609 AD.) a kuruba became a scholar whose poems are sung and played by all including caste brahmins.
@Prakhara07 Brainwashed man, I dont understand your point. My point is there was education system till British came-it was available irrespective of caste.
@Prakhara07 Pls stop bringing Brahmin into everything. Reasons: 1. Corruption: A rich kid (Principal's son) wants to come first and offers bribe/threatens. 2. Political: A skilled guy under no one's control is a threat. Just like US does not like others getting nuclear weapons. Pls grow up.

Subramanian Swamy is A TRUE ARYAN. My ideal version of India is known as the United Republics of Aryavarta (or Aryavarta/URA for short and sometimes also known simply as India). The URA is a union of nine republics consisting of the present-day countries of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Tibet (because the holy Hindu mountain Mount Kailash is in Tibet), Maldives, Nepal, Bhutan, Afghanistan (because a part of the Indus Valley Civilisation was in what is now present-day Afghanistan) and Sri Lanka. The Indian Ocean is the territorial waters of India. Aryavarta is an officially Hindu country. Aryavarta is the world's highest country (because of Mount Everest in Nepal), the world's wettest country (because of the Indian state of Meghalaya) and the world's lowest country (because of Maldives). Also, the official demonym of Aryavarta is Aryan. Even the non-Indo-Europeans in Aryavarta (like the Dravidians, for example) are known as Aryans.
😎
Arya means noble. It is the quality of nobility and morality which is not a character of most Indians.you are only entitled to that title when you show that character
@@Jo-pv4jx I already know that the word 'arya' means 'one who does noble deeds' in Sanskrit, but remember that in ancient times, Northern India was called 'Aryavarta' (which means 'abode of the noble ones' in Sanskrit). I'm just saying that Aryavarta should become the official name of the entire Indian Subcontinent. Also, I use the word 'Aryans' to refer to all Indo-Europeans. However, I think the word 'Aryan' should also be used to refer to anyone of exemplary conduct, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, race, gender, caste, religion, etc. 😎
@@Rishi123456789 Aryan theory is just a bullshit theory made to divide people regionwise . we are all the same.

Watch full series 1-5
@@ManishJha1997 I already know that what you are saying is true, but when I say the word 'Aryan', I don't mean the the word 'Aryan' as referring to a race like Westerners falsely do, but I instead mean the word 'Aryan' to refer to any noble person. In that sense, all of us Indians are Aryans. 😎
Very inspirational.
Every Hindu should watch this video.
I can only request Dr. Swami to please take care of our history education being provided in various universities and schools. Please take care of this issue and make a law for all Indians to read same history and actual history too (not made up History that We were taught).
It's good to know about Rajeev Manhotra
Why this channel doesn't have more subscriber I don't understand .
Sami 'speech is original there can be no two opinion
.
Only British divided our society.
Nobody call his speech illogical.
Srimad Bhagawatham and Bhagawat Geetha and Vedic wisdoms Vedic literatures clearly tells who we were & who are we & who we are and who we have to be!!!!
THE GEETHA ALSO TELLS THAT THE FOUR VARNAS WERE CREATED BY GOD HIMSELF !!!
YES VARNAS ARE NECESSARY TO BALANCE THE SOCIETY....
Like this type of seminar ll be more educated to next generation......

It's brilliant
What a speech ...Just amazing
We are people who say Sanskrit is great but always speak English .
Nobody can understand Sanskrit right now so swami shab have to speak in English or Hindi ....but we believe, one day sanskriti will come back
Great Indian. Needed more like him
It is an insult to say an intelectual economist, scholar, thinker and great Indian nationalist has just 85 lakhs followers, it should have been 85 crores followers.
Swamiji...great speech in social integration. India us one. Do not allow foreigners, NGO's supported by them, Leftists to divide us.
A powerful speech. Every Indian should listen to this talk.
