There are many arguments about the role of religion in the history of this country. But the fundamental fact still remains that India has been a historic home to all the great religions of the world. I believe this pluralism and this ability to have an individual element in your religion is culturally specific to India... I came to India as an orthodox Christian thinking there was only one way to God. I now believe there are many ways to God and that came from living in India.
