Dear Friend:
   I hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. As you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of India in your previous letter, in the following lines I have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. You will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. You won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. Each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. There are 22 official languages in India.
  Basically, India is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. For example the people of India believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. Arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as Diwali, Holi, Eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.
  Another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. In spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. I am sure you would love to visit India soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. Give regards to uncle and aunt. Do visit India with your family and experience our hospitality.
Your friend,
Amit 

Answer 2

My Dear Kris,

In your last letter, you have asked me to tell you how weddings are performed in India. As per your desire, I am describing an Indian wedding.

The bride and the bridegroom are made to sit on a raised Dias for the performance of rituals. The pandits chant the vedic hymns and the marital rituals are performed. The girl is given rich presents, jewelers, cloths and numerous other valuables as dowry. Then, it is the time for the bride to take leave of her parents. It is a moving time for her and her family. The bride goes to the bridegroom’s house.

I would like you to see the Hindi movie “Hum Apke Hain Kaun” to get a better idea of an Indian marriage.

Yours sincerely,$⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$
