Dear all,

I believe that the language, customs and traditions, knowledge and values, and of course the intent, all together comprise a culture. While new knowledge may not impede it in any way, the cessation of usage of one or more of the elements of “culture” may gradually lead to the erosion of culture.

With specific reference to brahmins:

The usage of modern dress, a new language, an inclination to prefer western music… in short a deep desire and passion to embrace the luxuries and laziness (here it is w.r.t. rituals, customs etc) which might be offered by a conventional open thinking, is a trend seen in many…

While there is an element of narrow-mindedness in insulation of a culture, it is a necessary requisite.

Is the alienation of our group in society the reason for the carelessness in preserving our culture? Or, is it that we really have lost it in running after materialistic/other pursuits? Or, is it the shrinking of the world in terms of distance and communication a reason? Or, is it that we have developed a dislike for our culture by looking at the esteem, which the other culture gets? Or is it that we are fed up with our culture that we are content with oblivion or to break free from rules? Or is it that we are unable to balance cultural and commercial issues in this fast paced world for fear of being ostracized by the rest in society?
