The prehistoric India mirrored an exceptional and extraordinary ideal of unity in diversity. Though the ancient generation was ignorant of this phrase, our ancestors lived the life in perfect harmony, thus teaching the world the lesson of cultural melodeon symphony. Youngsters shall now reiterate the age old ideals in which the older generations found bliss. Let us promote the universal truth that India, though culturally is a diversified country has the robustness to assimilate numerous traditions, civilizations, folklores, rituals into its wide domain. The world culture reflects a combination of the unique festivals with distinctive food practices. Thus, there was a kaleidoscopic view of the most diverse cultures, which was indeed a spectacular vision. The vision is what creates a coherent Utopia- Food, Culture, festival and Cultural Harmony..A journey towards perfection.
