Abstract
A teacher not only gives direction to but also shapes culture. As such, he needs to define the complexity of cultural ethos of his times. English language, Indian culture and ‘Globalisation’ are part of our common heritage, and we study these to define an identity for ourselves. Sabda as Brahman or Word as God points to a mystery beyond the obvious. Language and culture are inseparable and both demand care and attention for their preservation. Introduction of English language in India was part of a hidden agenda of colonisation. English is necessary, but so is the knowledge of our roots. We have fallen for Macaulay's trap and neglected our culture and tradition. The recovery lies in rediscovering the living tenets of Indian culture.
