The TB families try to follow our culture to the best of their abilities...But our children do not understand or appreciate because we hardly take them to temples or make them read material that would help them understanding the meanings and significance of rituals & the mantras...

For the Avani avittam function that I attended recently in Gurgaon there were more than 100 persons....There were lots of young boys who were reciting the mantras...It was not a public holiday, yet the nos were significant...We still have the religious bent of mind in almost 90% of the brahmins...But there is no guarantee that our children would not run amok

What is required is introspection by the community...We may have the education & employment; but if we loose the roots of our culture then we would be the ultimate losers
