Strands of Indian Thought is a projection of some basic foundations of Indian thinking. The Indian stream of thought has been so valiantly and variedly expatiated on that a mist has gathered around it. To cut as under this mist what is projected as bits of light is producing a new but separate semblance of light. All are aglow with His light, All get lighted only when He shines. Nomenclature ‘Hindu’ is not prefixed to religion or faith. Castes or tribes do get mention, it is true, but in this way: O mother earth, in your lap myriads of types of people with varied thinking and traits, with various languages get nourishment, do play among themselves, even fight one another, again come together, since you are the only one to unite. This book is an attempt to intensify the process of rethinking what India stands for.
