Philosophy, science, mathematics, art and architecture, literature, political thought, political systems, thrived in our land, which slowly spread across the globe and eventually to the West. Foreign powers invaded our land from time to time over a period of about eight hundred years, making every effort to impose their culture on us and obliterate our own but we survived. Strangely, it is seldom that we wonder how and by whom was it made possible that we were able to keep our rich ancient culture intact. Unfortunately, modern Indians have grown up with a distorted version of the historical facts about India presented to them by the Western world and agenda driven historians.
