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
