HERITAGE IN MOTION

What truly defines India? Is it our rapid economic growth, our rising global influence, or the billions of people who call this land home? In India’s True Calling: Identity, Culture, and the Road Ahead, Dr. Abhishek Gilara argues that India’s greatest strength lies not in numbers or statistics but in its identity, a unique blend of spiritual wisdom, cultural depth, and civilisational continuity that has survived and thrived for thousands of years. Drawing from personal experiences, deep research, and insights from his previous works, Dr. Gilara explores:
• Why identity is the foundation of national strength. • How culture can serve as India’s most powerful global ambassador.
• The importance of discipline, values, and dignity in shaping a nation’s image.
• The role of the Indian diaspora in carrying our culture abroad.
• How identity, when projected with confidence, creates not just influence but respect.
This is not a book of nostalgia; it is a roadmap for the future. It calls upon every Indian to reflect, to act, and to embody the values that make our nation extraordinary. In a time when the world is searching for balance, meaning, and direction, India’s true calling may well be to remind humanity of what it has forgotten: that identity is not a label; it is destiny.
