Indian Civilization And Culture is a remarkable essay written by our father of nation Mahatma Gandhi. In this essay, he compares Indian Civilization to the Civilization of the West and finds it superior to all.
Our Indian Civilization is the most ancient, the most vital and the longest surviving of all civilization in the world. So, our civilization can teach the world. Therefore, we need not copy of Western civilization.
According to Gandhiji, "Mind is a restless bird, the more it gets the more it wants still it remains always unsatisfied". The more we indulge in our passion the more our mind becomes uncontrolled.
Lastly, Gandhiji says that it behoves every lover of India to cling to the old Indian Civilization even as a child clings to his mother's breast.
