The book of a prominent Russian indologist, Professor MGIMO, an honorary doctor of a number of Indian universities, has no analogues in domestic indology either by the volume of material or the degree of its detailed development. The culture of India is a huge layer of world culture. She rooted in distant antiquity and impresses with its scale, the depth of thought, artistic and scientific skill, the thoroughness of the development of topics, the abundance of philosophical movements, religious dogma, vocal, musical and dance schools, unique architecture and sculpture of antiquity and the Middle Ages. India is the birthplace of two world religions: Hinduism and Buddhism. The Vedas, the great epic poems of Mahabharata and "Ramayana", which are repeatedly surpassed by the Iliad "and the Odyssey, were created on Indian land. Ancient India gave the world of great philosophers and mathematicians, theorists of language, literature and art, economists and sociologists. Modern India not only carefully retains its original culture, but also develops it in all its manifestations. Modern Indian cinema has become a very noticeable and significant part of world cinema. The “Culture of India” is undoubtedly a complete and useful reference book for all professionals-indologists, for all lovers and admirers of this great country. Knowledge of the culture of India is an important composite factor in the convergence of the peoples of Russia and India
