| Wellspring
of Indian Culture
|
Punjab
is the wellspring of Indian culture. Traditional literature
the Ramayana and Mahabharata, the Puranas, the Vedas, all
take us back to Punjab. Archaeolgiststs find the earliest
evidence of recognisably Indian civilisation in the excavation
of Punjab's Harappan sites. The uninterrupted continuity of
Indian culture flows forth from ancient Punjab
Throughout
the ages Punjab was a crucible of culture. An unending amalgamation
of communities and confluence cultures took place resulting
in a pragmatic, experimental and utilitarian outlook on life
and a robust common-sense view which debilitated the root
of all sorts of dogmas, conventions and conservatism.
| The
Vision of The Great Guru |
The religio-social
movement of Guru Nanak was strengthened by a line of illustrious
successors for the next two centuries. In circumstances transformed
a purely socio-devotional movement into a creed compelled
to struggle for survival with dignity and integrity of faith.
