Question

Discuss in your class what you intend to do to inculcate the idea of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ in the society

Answer 1

‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ is a Sanskrit phrase from the ancient text of Maha Upanishad which underlines the idea of the world as one single family. It is a noble idea that teaches people to rise above the differences of caste, creed, colour and race, and to love one another as we love ourselves. We should celebrate all the festivals irrespective of our faith. It is important to learn to be tolerant of our differences and appreciate others for their values. We should make an effort to understand diversity and respect other cultures, then only we can realize the true meaning of the great saying.
