Our Children, Our Future -3. Swami Chinmayananda

3.1

So, whether in the political field, social field, economical field or even science field, India’s contribution has been almost zero.

We cannot be proud of our present times.

How is it that we have fallen so low?

Is it not because we have neglected to tend the present generation when they were young?

That neglect of the past is shadowing us today and making today’s world an ugly one – a very miserable and sad situation.

Do you want in the future also, the country to be under a cloud of stupidity and selfishness or do you want a brighter world for our children to grow in?

3.2

We only suffer.

We cannot come out of it immediately now; it is not overnight that things happen.

It is not revolution that we are thinking of – but it is the evolution of a country’s culture, its social status, its individual character.

It is a slow process. So if the future is to be bright, we have to mold our children to think, not in our pattern which is disastrous – we have understood, but in a new pattern with a new inspiration, and with a new vision in their minds.

Can we do it?
