Confluence of Cultures
In the thousands of years of our evolution, one of the finest gifts handed down by our ancestors has been culture. Serving as our basic identity, culture connects us to our roots while defining us and our ancestry. Culture also exhibits our diversity in the magnanimous human race, binding us together as strands of a single fabric.
At the Art of Living, we believe that traditions and cultures are an important aspect of every individual’s life. Whether its music, food, or arts, they need to be introduced to the world and the world to them.
Acting as a confluence point for cultures, this blog aims to raise awareness of cultures prevalent in our rapidly shrinking global village; and thus contribute towards a more accommodating and peaceful society.
