we tolerate a lot, which probably is a testament to the longevity and uniqueness of our culture. the ‘indian-ness’ of tomorrow might be different form the ‘indian-ness’ of today, but tolerance is one thing we should never lose.

Dr. Kalam as president was great reason for cheer. sadly, after him, it back to the usual. there'll always be narrow-minded people but it's important to not let such people/ideas become a majority. Shashi Tharoor gave an analogy to this unity in diversity as the yummy, different food items that make up a multi-course indian thali :-). yes, sometimes tolerance is seen as apathy or weakness - then it's time to assert. @spandana, rather than call all these contradictions, i’d like to think that it’s just a matter of having the best person for the job w/o any relevance to the religious/caste of the person (or such “don’t care conditions”), which happens to portray the “unity in diversity”. the film was beautiful. in general, the references to religion/caste are meant to positively highlight the unity etc. but sometimes it could be a case of “trying too hard”. wish such sanity prevailed today, esp . among our parochial dealer-leaders and masses.
