The Indian people have accepted modern means of living, improved lifestyle, with the traditional values and beliefs still remaining unchanged. Indian culture treats its guests as god and serves them and takes care of them as if they are a part and parcel of their family. Elders and the respect for elders is a major aspect in Indian culture. Elders are the driving force for any family and hence the love and respect for elders comes from within and is not just made up. An individual takes blessings from his elders by touching their feet.
