This lecture series entitled the heritage of Indian culture was given by Swami Krishnananda during the course of eight Sunday evening satsangs in 1980. Here Swamiji highlights the vision of India which sees the totality of the various manifestations of life and visualizes the one in the many and how this has relevance of culture and civilization the role that philosophy religion and scripture have played and why Indian culture has remained so rich and vital through the passage of time while other cultures have perished. Swamiji also discusses the individuals role in society and integrates this with our process of evolution towards the attainments of the ultimate reality.
