Cosmetic vs. In-Depth Cultural Impact and Conquest

Focusing on heritage can often be seen as a cosmetic approach, like Bollywood representing Indian culture for NRIs. However, true cultural impact lies at a deeper level, delving into mindset shifts rather than just superficial aspects like food and clothing. The Western model emphasizes conquest, while the Indian model focuses on self-conquest, mirroring the contrast between Vir and Mahavir, the conqueror and the one who conquers himself. This highlights the importance of inner growth and finding power within oneself, akin to the concept of Mahadev. The emphasis shifts towards seeking power internally rather than externally, questioning the pursuit of wealth and recognizing the lessons in self-discovery and transformation.
