A life without culture is like a house without light.

A country does not mean a piece of earth. People make a country. And transformation should not be one dimensional. It is the entire process of refinement by which people get rid of their bad thoughts and actions, and cultivate good thoughts and do good acts in daily life. The value of a person is not derived from his or her educational qualifications alone. The cultural refinement of one’s lifestyle is also essential. A life without culture is like a house without light. A person without culture is like a stringless kite, which is tossed hither and thither. An education bereft of culture is worthless like a counterfeit coin. What is meant by culture? It is the realisation of the inherent Divinity in man and making it manifest in one's way of life.
