Our philosophy saw and experienced oneness in all i.e., “atmavat sarvabhutesu”. Due to the different reasons like continuous foreign invasions, forgetting our own soul and nature, so many bad practices came into the existence in our society. One major thing is, seeing differences by gender, region, caste etc., One such is regarding Disability.
Nobody is absolute in the creation of Almighty except Thyself. In the recent past our society started thinking so called Disabled cannot contribute to the family and society and is because of sins done in the previous birth!
