I love my India

'Vande Mataram' in Sanskrit, 'Maa Tujhe Salaam' in Hindi, 'Mother, I salute you!' in English... An old sanskrit phrase, the freedom cry of people of all the different religions of the Indian sub-continent when they fought for the right to live their way, on their Mother Earth. We all have a mother, we all know the same love. We are all One in this love. gott dis from caraff
