Namaste
Despite all that happened to HindustAn, BhArat, including invasions , HindustAnis have embraced other cultures into their own colourful cultural rainbow, appreciated their good side, till it blends so well into modern day India, and its a secular nation.
We cannot ignore the fact that this has happened due to the tolerence and hospitality , accomodating nature of the HindustAnis, majority of which are followers and children of the SanAtan Dharma.
Where does this tolerence come from ? Obviously from the Vedic/Agamic DhArmic teachings , culture, and saMskAr - values. From its astonishingly open spirituality that accomodates all kinds.
What is tolerance anyway ? It is an aspect of Love. A facet of the Love prism. Susanskriti , love, and the gift of making anyone feel at home : guests, servants, travellers, neighbours... irrespective of caste or any other distinction, while maintaining the varied heritages, is an inherent part of this saNskRti.
This is to be cherished, and not broken by selfish politics.
I have no right to say anything , i am not an authority , but this has been merely an observation since childhood.
May the MahAnta (greatness) of BhArat be protected and be a source of inspiration for others all over the world.
