Why We Indians say अतिथि देवो भव:
Just as there are many diverse regions in our country India, there are also many diverse kinds of people living here. India is home to people from many different countries. Why? People from around the world have decided to come here because they want to enjoy the culture of India. You can consider India as a large salad bowl [ वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् ]. The different cultures, languages and regions of the people in our country are like the ingredients in a large salad. A salad with only radish isn’t very exciting. But a salad with a combination of radish, tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, carrots and other ingredients is delicious. The more ingredients, or diversity, the more flavorful our country will be! Here in India, we value the differences we have with others and learn from them. This diversity makes our country a unique and special place to live.
