India is a great country in human civilization which has not only attracted large number of travellers, historians, philosophers and poets to its charms; it has also converted many of them into its addict lovers. Its land and people beauty music ,philosophy and magic ,mysticism and Sufism ,chivalry and beauty ,music notes and colorful costumes ,holy rivers and unparalleled saints on their banks .its superstitions and rituals in brief everything to the aura of mother India has enchanted people of other lands and instilled an undying sense of pride in its inhabitants . The vitality and fragrance of our culture is uneven. Our ancestors had a tendency of differentiation. Different schools and regional trends crossed, inter crossed and ultimately merged into a single stream of what is known as Indian philosophy, art and culture. During this evolution, the greater urge of our genius to blend remained predominant over our varied styles of thought and life, dance drama, language and social philosophy. Mother India with all its different colours and components gives the appearance of a beautiful woman with a large variety of ornaments and costumes merging into one harmonious impression. Our art is more of a reflection and expression of reconciliation.
