Unity in diversity means the existence of integrity in spite of various disparities. India is a better example for this concept of Unity in Diversity.
We can see here very clearly that different religions, communities, castes, languages, cultures, lifestyles, ways of wearing clothes, belief in God, worship, live together in harmony on one land of India i.e. under one roof. People of the same way of teaching etc live together.
India is a famous and big country of the world where different religions like Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Sikh, Jain, Christian and Parsi etc live together but all rely on one principle of religion and order. The people here are God-fearing in nature and believe in purification of the soul, rebirth, salvation, heaven and hell.
People celebrate their festivals Holi, Diwali, Eid, Christmas, Good Friday, Mahavir Jayanti, Buddha Jayanti etc. in a very peaceful manner without harming people of any religion.
We can never forget the freedom movement run by the people of all religions of India to make India an independent country. The struggle for freedom is the best example of “unity in diversity” in India. “Unity in Diversity” in India gives a strong message to all that without unity there is nothing.
India is famous for its rich cultural heritage which is due to the people of different religions. People of different cultures promote different lifestyles based on their interests and beliefs. These again encourage growth in various professional fields like music, art, drama, dance (classical, folk etc.), theatre, sculpture etc. The spiritual tradition of the people makes them more devoted to each other.
All Indian religious writings are great means of spiritual understanding of the people. Almost all religions have Rishis, Maharishis, Yogis, Priests, Fathers etc. who follow their spiritual tradition according to their scriptures.
Generally people living in different states differ in their language, culture, tradition, dress, celebration, appearance etc. (known as Bengali, Maharashtrian, Punjabi, Tamilian, etc.); Still they call themselves Indian which shows “unity in diversity”.
People in India give importance to spirituality, karma and sanskar rather than their wealth which brings them closer. The people here have religious tolerance as their unique quality which does not allow them to feel difficulty in the presence of different religion.
Most of the people in India belong to the Hindu religion which has the ability to adopt and welcome all other good cultures on its land. Such characteristics of Indian people make Unity in Diversity famous here, and make India famous all over the world.
