When people are asked about India, the first thing that comes to mind is its diversity. Boasting 29 states, each with its own language, festivals, cultures and traditions; there is no dearth of variety. And while you might expect these differences might very easily create rifts, this has rarely been the case. For thousands of years, Indians have often celebrated different cultures no matter they originated.

This has been possible because India has had the age-old vision, Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, “the world is one family.” In these troubled and divisive times, we look to the best of Indian civilization and shining examples of it to remind us of what we have, could have and ought to be.

Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam culture needs to be nurtured on every level – from our everyday interactions to actions between faith communities, and more. In a time where religious and tribal conflict make headlines, we need – more than ever – examples of people and communities that exemplify the kind of culture we hope to build.

What follows are some experiences of the Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam culture at a recent program Global Peace Foundation India held in Delhi.

Answer 2

Explanation:

⏩Clearly, vasudhaiva kutumbakam has become a catch-all notion for India’s diplomatic orthodoxy to be deployed in numerous scenarios. Although it might be open to myriad interpretations, it has been used to broadly convey India’s ideal and liberal concept of global norms, themes of globalization, or global commons. In doing so, it suggests that this is an ideal world worth achieving and it can be created through negotiations alone.

In reality, however, the overly benign and idealist presentation of the concept, which appears to promote values more than interests, has done very little to actually advance India’s cause in any of the issues where it has been quoted. And it is unlikely to do so unless the concept is deconstructed and better understood
