Though we use the word ‘Culture’ in our day to day life, we get confused while pointing its meaning. This is a thing which can be only experienced and is invisible. It self culture is to put into practice. Culture has been spread through all over the world. There is not a single society without culture. Each and every society like Indian, Western, and Tribes has its own culture. We can say that it is manmade as man has brought its culture as per his comfortless and to fulfill the needs of progress and development of all human creatures.
When we go through the Indian Culture we came to know that Indian Culture is respected not only in India by Indian People but also in Foreign Countries. It is an immitiuative thing which has taken as a model by other foreign countries. Everybody gives importance to his own culture. Everyone has respect and the filling of affection for it. In spite of human being other animal do not have the comprehension ability that they could not made them progressed by means of culture as human being. It can be said that culture is a continues process of flowing from traditional society to the recent times. It is the design of better living accepted by man as a member of society. Material and non-material are the types of culture. The man made visible components are included in material culture E.g. Car, Furniture etc. Formerly, these things were made with the help of technology for the purpose of daily needs. Non material culture is also one of manmade culture but it is not in the form of thing. It is invisible though we use it in everyday in our life. We can experience it.
Culture has significant position in human life. Knowledge Beliefs, Values and Norms, Signs and Symbols are the four major elements of the culture and because of the components the development and progress has become possible. ‘Knowledge’ is the major component of culture which continuously flows through the society and is a continuously progressing flow through the society and is a continuously progressing process. ‘Beliefs’ which are a major component of culture have been raised in many different religions and classes. Man experience and beliefs are based on the environment where he lives. ‘Value’ is that which desirable to the society members and norms are those guidelines which get limit for behavior of social members. Signs or symbols are used in culture to express some special event, special thinking are particular emotion. These are used to explain certain meaning like the signs to recognize a married woman are different in different religions. For Hindu religion it is red kumkum and mangalsootra.
Thus we came to realize that culture is that composite whole which includes knowledge, believes, art, moral, law, custom and nay other capabilities. It is a specialty transferred completeness and behavior of educated people.
