Culture in India is a huge and complicated mix of things

that were and things still to be, in no country in the world are the ancient past, and the far flung future so obvious and prominent.
Everyone has their own definition of culture but correct 'Oxford dictionary' definition is
"the behaviors and beliefs characteristic of a particular social, ethnic, or age group.
This is only one definition and everyone defines culture differently, to some it's fine dining and opera, to others it's religion and to others it's heritage. The word has taken on so many different meanings that some people will even go as far as to say that is no such thing as 'culture' and/or that the word is completely misleading.
