hope – He guided his fellow citizens to struggle for freedom, not by using weapons, but by ahimsa

(non-violence), peace (Shanti) and truth (Satya)

Taj Mahal : The power of Love

• The Taj Mahal is a tomb built in the 17th century by the Mughal king Shah Jahan in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal. She was his 3rd wife. Eventually, Shah Jahan was entombed in the Taj Mahal with his wife. The building is in the city of Agra, Uttar Pradesh – Now this monument symbolizes Love – The monument was built using Persian and Mughal Architecture– It is estimated to have taken more than 22,000 people and 17 years to to build this impressive

flavors, Indian cuisine can be both exciting and intimidating– There are a basic 20 to 30 spices and there are infinite ways of using them– Indian cuisine has an added bonus for vegetarians with unlimited options– Right from breakfast to dinner, there are various kinds Indian breads that can spruce up ones

films. It is a mixture of numerous styles. – Bollywood music is an utmost requirement in our

movies to convey our feelings (mostly mixed with some dance)
