Unity in diversity ka matlab kya hai?

‘Diversity’ aur ‘unity’ ka matlab kya hai?

Diversity (vividhta) matlab kisi cheez ki kai kismein. Unity (ekta) matlab ek saanjha dhaaga jo cheezon ko jodta hai. Dono ko milao to unity in diversity ka matlab hai ki kai alag roopon ka aadhaar ek hi hai. Chapter ise Many in the One kehta hai.

Indradhanush ke baare mein socho. Usme kai rang hain, phir bhi wo ek hi indradhanush hai. India bhi kuch aisa hi hai.

India kitna vividh hai?

Train se India ghoomo to turant dikhta hai: zameen badalti hai, log alag tarah ke kapde pehente hain, khana badalta hai, aur stations pe nayi bhashayein sunaayi deti hain aur nayi lipiyan dikhti hain.

• India mein 1.4 billion se zyada log hain, duniya ki aabaadi ka lagbhag 18 percent.
• Anthropological Survey of India ke People of India project ne saare rajyon mein 4,635 communities ka adhyayan kiya aur 25 lipiyon wali 325 bhashayein ginin.
• Kai Indians migrants hain: wo apne janm-sthaan ya apni mool community se door rehte hain.

To ekta kahan hai? Chapter ise rozmarra ki chaar jagahon pe dhoondhta hai.

1. Khana

Poore India mein hazaaron pakwaan bante hain, lekin zyadatar wahi staple grains use karte hain: chawal, gehun aur jau; bajra, jowar aur ragi jaise millets; aur daal aur rajma jaisi daalein. Haldi, jeera, ilaichi aur adrak jaise masale lagbhag har jagah use hote hain. Saamagri saanjhi hai (ekta), lekin milaane ke tareeke anginat hain (vividhta).

2. Kapde

Sari bina sile kapde ka ek lamba tukda hai jo India ke zyadatar hisson mein pehna jaata hai. Ye cotton, silk aur aajkal synthetic kapdon se banti hai, aur mashhoor silk saris hain Banarasi, Kanjivaram, Paithani, Patan Patola, Muga aur Mysore. Ise kai kshetriya tareekon se pehna jaata hai, aur naye tareeke abhi bhi ban rahe hain, phir bhi ye ek hi poshaak hai. Iska itihaas lamba hai: aaj ke Bihar ke Vaiśhali ki ek patthar ki relief kuch sadiyan BCE pehle ki sari dikhati hai.

India kabhi duniya ka sabse badhiya cotton banata tha. Chintz naam ka chhapa cotton 17vi sadi ke Europe mein itna popular hua ki England aur France ne apne kapde ko bachaane ke liye iska import band kar diya.

3. Tyohaar

14 January ke aas-paas India ke kai hisse fasal ke mausam ki shuruaat manaate hain. Ye ek hi tyohaar hai, Makara Sankranti, jiske kai naam hain: Punjab mein Lohri, Assam mein Magh Bihu, Gujarat mein Uttarayan, West Bengal mein Poush Songkranti aur Tamil Nadu mein Pongal, aur bhi kai.

4. Kahaniyan

Panchatantra, zindagi ki seekh dene wali jaanwaron ki kahaniyon ka sangrah, kam se kam 2,200 saal pehle Sanskrit mein likha gaya. Ye lagbhag har Bharatiya bhasha mein sunaya gaya hai aur Southeast Asia se Arab duniya aur Europe tak 50 se zyada bhashaon mein lagbhag 200 roop hain.

Do mahakavya, Ramayan aur Mahabharat, do hazaar saal se zyada se sunaaye aur dobara sunaaye ja rahe hain. Bhil, Gond aur Munda jaisi adivasi communities samet kai communities ke apne versions aur kissey hain, jo veeron ko unki apni zameen se jodte hain.

Vividhta taakat kyun hai?

Har ilaaka apna swaad, kapda, tyohaar ka naam aur kahani jodta hai. Ye fark logon ko alag karne ki jagah saanjhi sanskriti ko aur samriddh banate hain. Yahi chapter ka bada vichaar hai: vividhta baantti nahi; samriddh banati hai, aur iske neeche ek ekta hai jo sabko jode rakhti hai.
