vandE bhArata mAtaram: I bow to Thee, Goddess BhArata MAtA!
This thread is inspired by the thread 'Hinduize politics and militarize Hindus!' started by sm78 under the Svadesh - Apna Desh - Bharatavarsh > Mera Bharat Mahan forum.
The objective of this thread is to foster worship of BhArata MAtA in temples, Ashrams, community worship and more specifically, at the home of every Hindu.
Worshipping mother goddess is an inherent part of our religion, dharma and culture. BhArata MAtA is the mother of all Indians, especially, Hindus.
Let us collect hymns to her in all Indian languages in this thread, plan to have a picture in our puja rooms and start worshipping her, praying to her to give us the strength and unity to save the religion, dharma and culture of this ancient nation.
I request members to post hymns to BhArata MAtA in this thread, so we can have a collection. While songs like 'sArE jahAn sE achchA' that refer to the country are not out of place here, more relevant would be hymns, bhajans, songs and pujas that conceptualize our great nation BhAratam as a Mother Goddess.
