How is Indian culture different from the cultures of other countries?


The unity and continuity of Indian culture is highly admirable. We find many examples of civilisation without culture in European countries. There is also a great difference in quality between the masses and the classes in those countries. It has shaken the faith of even all those democrats who show warmth of feeling on it. But in India such differences and evils are not found.

Unity is almost the characteristic of all culture. But the continuity is not found in all these countries, except in India. As such what specially distinguishes the culture of India is its unbrorken continuity. There have been a firmly fixed growth, developments and extension of culture which has gradually spread throughout in every class and section of the society.
