does anybody realize that vande mataram though later adopted as a slogan and song during the freedom movement was originally written in honour not of india but of bengal the mother ? so we are actually singing a hymn in praise of bangla desh!

What Vande Mataram means to you?
by Ranjit Singh on Aug 26, 2006 02:11 AM  Permalink 

Vande Mataram is not just a word or phrase it means to me that much which can\'t be explained in words, it re-energizes my soul whenever I listen to it, which I do often and it reminds me and makes me feel more -:{INDIAN}:- everytime.

National Song
by capri181 on Aug 26, 2006 12:20 AM  Permalink 

Now since no one will ever be able to prove for whom Rabindranath Tagore wrote the poem for, there is absolutely no point discussing it. The focal point should be what it means to every Indian. As of today it is to be sung as a tribute to your motherland and I hope all Indians and Indian politician focus on other core issues to have a discussion on.

First off Mother nation cannot be portrayed according to Hindu mythology.



We worship God (The only One), and nation cannot be worshiped, we respect our nation.
