India has always been a melting pot of stupendous paradoxes, extremes, diverse-cultures, religions, languages and the ways of living.
These colossal diversities and varieties run through the entire fabric of the nation, which present a vision of eternity. Its extra ordinary oneness and unity amidst adversity and hero genet strike people with awe and wonder. One is left breathless and gasping at its sheer vastness, complexity and seemingly paradoxical unity in diversity. About 900 million human beings, the one sixths of mankind, and speaking various languages and following different religions, live here, a fortieth of the earth’s surface. It is also the world’s largest democracy.
This ancient land called Bharat or India is so fantastic in colours, dresses, diets, deities, religions, sects, climates, backgrounds, languages, races, faces and what not, that presents an inexhaustible experience of unity amidst diversity and variety. It has been a meeting point of various cultures, civilizations and religions, for more than five millennia. As a country and a nation it has out!! /end the test of time and attacks of invaders. It is here mat modernity and tradition, urban and rural, religious and secular, peaks and valleys, variety and unity embrace each other in counter balance. There is no other such example of unity and cohesion in diversity. Culturally, India has always been one since ancient times. Politically also it has been a united country with certain exceptions, its underlying cultural strength, political unity and ethos baffles and defies analysis.
India’s ancient, unique and great culture and civilization has been a great unifying factor. The variety of life here makes a complex but wonderful and a whole pattern. The Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, Buddhists, Muslims, Christians, Jews, Parses etc., live here in harmony and trust. India is secular and yet profoundly religious. The Indian constitution guarantees all its citizens freedom of faith, worship, expression, profession etc. One can follow and preach any religion or faith as long as it does not interfere in the religious freedom and practice of the others. It is this diversity, flexibility and dynamism which have enabled India as one nation and one country to survive all odds and attacks since the hoary past. This similarity of outlook and cultural unity runs like a golden thread through its whole colorful fabric.
India’s great cultural and historical heritage is common to all the people and citizens of the country. They are very proud of it. Differences in opinion, way of living, in faith and religions, are its real strength, and not weakness. They reflect broad horizon of outlook, the depth of tolerance and dynamism. Here people can have different, even opposite views about life, religion, social structure, economic growth, political system, ways of spiritual development and salvation, and yet belong to one country, one nation, that is Bharat. To envisage a complete unity and regimentation without allowing differences of opinion would be really counterproductive and self-defeating. Unity in diversity of thoughts, life styles and faiths has been the main driving force of Indian nationalism.
The one greatest virtue of Indian culture has been its abiding tolerance and respect for others. The tolerance shown by the people of India all these centuries in the face of many challenges, invasions and various provocations has been really tremendous. People of many faiths and cultures came here as invaders, tourists, refugees, seekers of spiritual peace and wisdom, but ultimately they got assimilated into its vast cultural unity and heritage. St. Thomas, one of the first 12 disciples of Christ, was the first preacher of Christianity in India. He was contemporary of St. Peter in Rome. The Parses came in 8th century, seeking refugee from religious persecution in Iran and brought Zoroastrianism. The Jews came quite early about 2000 years ago. Muslims in India form the largest religious population after the Hindus. Thus, India is one of the largest Islamic nations. However, the recent communal flare-ups and clashes are political in nature. They are exceptions than the rule. They should be taken as an aberration or temporary lapse. The Indian masses are basically tolerant, harmonious and peace loving. They feel proud to be Indians. In spite of the two-nation theory propounded by Mr. Jonah and India’s division into Bharat and Pakistan in 1947, the fundamental cultural unity of India is a living thing, a long established fact and a historical truth.
