The Power Of Ancient India

"I have travelled the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a thief. Such a wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we could ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and therefore I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self esteem, their native self capture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation."
This was said by Lord Macauly in his speech of February 2, 1835 in British Parliament.
This was how our country used to be. Our education system which we have now is the system which was established by Lord Macauly. The system, the path we follow shows us that we are a truly dominated nation. We find that foreign culture is greater than ours which makes us dominated. As I read the above statement made by Lord Macauly I felt that he had accomplished what he wanted to. He has made India a dominated nation as we see India now in it's present condition. How do we get back the status that India once held? This was the first thought that occured to me as I read his statement. This was once answered by a great person (whom I am unable to recall) that unless the education system which we have is changed, we cannot even think of bringing back the glory that India once had. I think that to change the system of education we have, is not a single man's work. It needs teamwork , but who would take the responsibility? We...the students of India..have the power to do it, but are we actually ready to do this??
