‘Tradition’ literally means “a custom, belief or way of doing something that has continued from the past to the present.” In the tradition, knowledge of a subject or sub-topic is transmitted from one generation to another without any change. For example, the Bhagavat Purana describes the classification of the Vedas and its transfer by tradition.

Here the subjects of knowledge can be spiritual, artistic (music, dance) or educational. Indian culture and civilization is the most ancient and rich culture and civilization in the world. It is considered the mother of all cultures of the world. The art of living, science or politics has always been a special place in Indian culture. The cultures of other countries have been eroding along with the stream of time but the culture and civilization of India has remained immortal with its traditional existence since time immemorial.
