Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam
(The Earth is a Family)
Meaning
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam is a Sanskrit phase which
means “the whole world is one single family”.
• "vasudha" meaning Earth;
• "eva" meaning emphasize
• "kutumbakam" meaning family.
Origin
This concept finds its roots in an ancient Sanskrit literature, Hitopadesha
(1.3.71)
“Ayam nijah paro veti gananaa laghuchetasaam
Udaaracharitaam tu vasudhaiva kutumbakam”
The thought that one person is related to me and another is not is that of the
narrow-minded. For the broadminded, however, the whole world is one
family. (Hitopadesha: 1.3.71)
Similar reference is found in Sanskrit fables, Panchatantra (5.3.37).
There are many countries spread out on this globe and if the entire human race
start searching for their roots they may end up pointing to one civilization on
this plane.
Some say it all started in Mesopotamia while some feel it is Indus
Valley whatever or wherever we are originated from interestingly we are from
the same source.
Hence we can say “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” His entire creation is one
family, this is a verse from Hitopadesha.
 The knowledge of this made Swami Vivekananda addressed the gathering
in Chicago as “Brothers and Sisters of America”
Around World
In Modern World
Hatred separates people. In modern era also countries fight with each other
unnecessarily without understanding that we are all related and our relationship
is from love and affection.
We share the sun, moon, stars and the whole atmosphere. Yet we have
countries restricting the visitors in the name if VISA and temples restricting
devotees in the name of RELIGION.
The protocol in the administration may need people from other countries to
get visa to enter the country but that should not be to divide people. And there
is no sense in restricting those who are interested to have the glimpse of the
diet in a temple just because he is from other religion.
If this practice continues is there any meaning in saying “Vasudhaiva
Kutumbakam”??????
This gigantic idea (Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam) is an exclusively Indian
contribution to world peace.
 The underlying philosophy of this ancient nation evolved a world-view
based on the motto "Loka samasta sukhina bhavantu" (Let the entire world
be happy) thousands of years ago.
Surprisingly, the same philosophy has now been thought of by the United
Nations in order to avoid global strife and fostering world peace.
It is not limited to the residents of India or the adherents of any particular
faith or creed.
 That is the reason why India receives, accepts and respects people of all
faiths and races
Conclusion
THANK YOU ...!!!
