I wish all the Indians a happy and prosperous Independence Day
I also commemorate all the people who contributed to the making of an independent India and a more Prosperous India which is free from all the alien forces.
Welcome to Aswin Writing
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and actionInto that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
-- Rabindranath Tagore (Gitanjali)
