Abstract
The mélange of various cultures in India and the mix of myriad values, interwoven in the cultural fabric of India, make it a truly diverse nation. The cultural evolution of India spans across several millennia. The principles of 'equality' and 'brotherhood', which bind the people of India together, reflect the continued relevance of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ or 'One World, One Family.' It is the duty of the youth to disseminate information regarding the cultural wisdom, contained within the pages of ancient scriptures, so that this wisdom can guide the present generation towards addressing pressing global problems.
