We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made!" -- Albert Einstein

 

 

If there is one place on the face of earth where all the dreams of living men have found a home from the very earliest days when man began the dream of existence, it is India!" -- French scholar Romaine Rolland

 

 

 

India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grand mother of tradition. Our most valuable and most astrictive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only!" -- Mark Twain

Thank you for these quotes -

 

This may be a little off-topic semantically, but I'm curious about the

experiencein working on the Vedas revealed very much the reverse

 

thanks in advance,
