Culture refers to the cumulative deposit of knowledge, experience, beliefs, values, attitudes, meanings, hierarchies, religion, notions of time, roles, spatial relations, concepts of the universe, and material objects and possessions acquired by a group of people in the course of generations through individual and group striving. Culture is practically the systems of knowledge shared by a relatively large group of people. Culture is communication, communication is culture. Practically Culture is a collective programming of the mind that distinguishes the members of one group or category of people from another.
From where the thing called Culture started? The process of culture
might have originated in the age when human beings started to live in
communities, groups etc. They might have started making rules for themselves
and their community to make their life better.
But how human acquired culture? It’s all due to human behaviour. It’s
the behaviour of human being to do everything in a planned way and something
done in past by following some set of rules becomes culture in future. There
are many factors that initiated culture. The factors are: surroundings,
geographical locations, resources economical, political conditions etc. These
whole factors initiated the rise of culture. So finally we can say that culture
is the collection of the thoughts, views and experiences of the peoples from
the ancient times to present time.
Culture brings differences too. Culture affects the human behaviour to a
great extent. Culture brings differences
in the thoughts between the communities. All communities sharing different
cultures differ in many things. Culture effects human behaviour in following
ways:
1.
Language
2.
Clothing ( based upon geographical
location)
3.
Food ( based upon food resources
available)
4.
Thoughts ( based upon experiences)
Etc………..
And culture is also of many types. The culture can be political,
institutional, patriotic, regional, religious, social, digital etc. Culture
makes people different but also preaches many things, and by analysing that
whole past cultural experience these countries can learn new things. Countries
having so much diverse culture have plenty of things to learn. People of
culturally diverse countries need to learn from the past experiences and think
about future. This is only going to make their and their fellow citizens life
better and better.
Also as the time changes culture should also be changed and all new
culture should be set up. This will result in better function of the society.
Take inspirations from past, Apply it in present to make your future better.
