Religion is central to Indian arts--music, literature, painting, architecture, music, dance, theater...
Indian religion, art, music, literature, and dance reached the rest of the world through trade routes, cultural exchanges with other civilizations, and colonial expansion by various empires. Additionally, the spread of Indian spiritual practices like yoga and meditation, as well as the popularity of Bollywood films and Indian literature in translation, have contributed to a global appreciation and understanding of Indian culture.
Religion can influence fashion through modesty guidelines, traditional attire for rituals or ceremonies, and symbolic use of colors or patterns representing religious beliefs. Religious leaders or institutions may also dictate specific dress codes that followers adhere to. Additionally, some designers may draw inspiration from religious art or iconography in their creations.
The religion that inspired Gandhara art was Buddhism. Gandhara art was heavily influenced by the artistic traditions of Greece, Persia, and India, reflecting the multicultural nature of the region. The art style flourished in the Gandhara region, which is present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan, between the 1st and 5th centuries CE.
Paleo-Indian evidence of religion includes cave paintings, rock art, burial practices, and the presence of ritual objects like stone tools, sculptures, or figurines. These artifacts suggest a belief in supernatural beings, spirits, or a connection to the spiritual world. Early human societies likely used these practices to seek protection, express gratitude, or engage in ceremonial rituals as part of their religious beliefs.
Religion is often interpreted based on personal ideology, which once interpeted is projected and materialized into what we know as art, like relics, building designs, etc, that are visible in cultures.
