But, regardless of caste, religion, or gender, there is something about Indian culture that binds people together with love, respect, and care.

In this blog post, we will cover the fascinating cultures of India that make the nation diverse and unique, along with their meaning and significance.

What is Indian culture?

India is one of the world's most spiritually and ethnically diverse countries, with strongly religious civilizations and cultures. It is a secular country, consisting of Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, and Christians. Its citizens' lives are fundamentally shaped by their relationship with religion. However, India's culture is a conglomeration of smaller, distinctive civilizations, which include food, music, dancing, festivals, architecture, dialects, and other cultural aspects.

Different cultures of India

Below are a few of the popular Indian civilizations that portray Indian culture.

Namaste: A salutation

One of the most widely used Indian rituals is namaste, also known as "namaskar." It is the greatest and most reverent form of greeting that can be found throughout the world. Namaste means "I bow to the divinity in you" in Sanskrit. When greeting someone with Namaste, one recognizes the other person's fellow spirit as being spiritually one with their own.

However, Barack Obama has been spotted doing it on numerous occasions, and on the first International Yoga Day in New York City, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon greeted everyone with a namaste in Times Square.

Joint families

India is a country where people follow traditions and rituals wholeheartedly. There is a concept of a joint family that stays together and eats together. However, the Indian joint family is composed of three to four living generations, including parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, nephews, and nieces. These individuals reside in the same home, share a kitchen, and frequently contribute to a shared fund.

Festivals 

There is unquestionably always a festive season in India. The nation is home to many different religions and cultural traditions; therefore, thrilling festivals are always present. Everybody wishes each other well on every celebration, including Eid, Diwali, Christmas, Pongal, Gurpurab, Makar Sankranti, and others. Moreover, these days are designated as holidays by the Indian government.

Languages

As India is the second-most populated country in the world (behind China), it acts as the home to a wide variety of tongues. There are 15 regional languages recognized under the constitution, but Hindi and English are the only two that are acknowledged as official. Besides that, India has over 400 languages and dialects that are still undiscovered.

Religious symbols

There are several signs and symbols with varied meanings throughout Indian traditions and texts. The Aum or Om is the most prominent religious symbol for Hindus; the crescent and star are well-known representations of Islam; whereas, the Sikhism belief is symbolized by the Khanda, a sword with two edges.

Indian Dances

According to Hindu mythology, dance was initially created by the gods. It has always been a vital component of Indian religion and culture. Eight traditional dances symbolize a distinct culture from a distinct origin.

Bharatnatyam from Tamil Nadu

Kathak from North, West, and Central India

Kuchipudi is from Andhra Pradesh.

Manipuri from Manipur

Kathakali from Kerela

Mohiniyattam from Kerela

Oddisi from Odhisa

No doubt, Indians come from a diverse spectrum of social, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds, but they all coexist peacefully and pass on the same values to the younger generation. The only goal of Indian culture is to treat everyone with respect and the same level of dignity. The country takes pride in showing others respect and affection.

One of the most well-known quotes in India is "Athithi Devo Bhava," which means that people are equal to god. This indicates that Indians do not practice prejudice or inequality. As a result, India is a country where visitors are treated equally as fellow citizens.

Chaturangui - May 2023 This Chaturangui is both beautiful and amazing. They are a traditional type of guitar from India and normally have 22 strings. This particular one has 23 tuning pegs, so maybe it is special. There are eight “normal” strings and then an additional fifteen very small strings that lie alongside the frets. It is normally played by a slider of some sort, either the thumb or a round rod of smooth rock or ivory. MWM
