Incredible India


India is a like an unending journey. It can last as much and more than the curiosity of the traveler. With a history over thousand years (and thousands of books being written about it), the country still remains unexplored and untouched. What makes India so mystic? Is it the people or the place? Is it the history or the culture? One cannot pin point its distinction from the rest of the world, and yet it is precisely this vividness that makes it stand out from rest of the world.

India is the epitome of diversity. Right from its people, languages, religions, traditions, culture, food, festivals, climates to politics, lifestyles, from villages to metros, we are diverse in every possible way. Ideally aren't these the differences a reason to fight? It is rare to find a nation that speaks over 14 languages, and follows more than 4 religions and celebrates over 100 festivals, and rushes to help over come natural calamities and today it a shelter to over a billion people. It’s unique and hence rare.

India is tough... with nothing in common between any state except the Indian boundary, what is it that binds its together so well?? It is the heritage. Indian heritage is all about emotions... it is a sentiment. It not just binds the differences together but also blends it to an unmatched oneness!!

India is a culture in it self. Indians are different. They are warm people. They are people who love people. They are people who value each other. They are people who sacrifice for each other. India is about a billion different souls staying together in harmony, love and peace. It is this Indianness that makes its Atulya, a truly incredible India.
