AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

 What are the present problems of India compare to old India? 

India started facing problems because it tried to become westernised and started giving almost exclusive importance to money and other materialistic aims.

The old India was focused on knowledge as well as equipping the child to face the real life challenges.

There education grew organically and remained in contact with the roots of life as it grew here. The aim was leading an integral life and not merely earning a degree and in turn making money. 

Affectionately,

Alok da.
