Indian Culture -> Mordenization -> Westernization -> Deterioration

     Of late the disputes regarding reality shows, nudity on movies and daily soaps, live-in relationships and legitimation of gay relationships have gone haywire. A lot of people (most of them belonging to media, actors, revolutionary writers and teenagers)came to their rescue and a few did oppose but mocked by media and slew of so called socialists and actors. They say, to be a developed nation we first have to be a developed and an open minded society, to move along with the modern generation "Gen -Y" and the contemporary society, we ought to adapt all these and ultimately get used to it. They affirm themselves by comparing the status with that of developed countries like USA, UK, Australia etc.They ridicule people who say this is tearing our culture apart, leading to our cultural downfall. They criticize there parents for putting restrictions over them, for protecting them. They ask for their freedom, if they are restricted then you are invading their privacy. They ask for, rather desperately want what they think they should have, without actually knowing the consequences.

     Its rather unfortunate with the development of the society we are losing our part of conscience. We are too blind to distinguish between good and bad. Our righteous standards are degrading. We are acting like animals. Like a sheep we tend to follow some trend without contemplating even once and defying the richest and oldest civilisation/culture in the planet.

    It's all so much hurting to see in front of your eyes the deteriorating condition of our very own culture, nurtured by our ancestors, watered by their hard work and sacrifices. I've always wondered why in our nation Hindi, Sanskrit, Tamil, Telugu and all other regional languages are vying for their survival? Why not being a English speaking nation our means of modern day communication is only English? Why our official language is English not Hindi or any other Indian language? You must be smirking, me moaning about English in 'English', that's only because Hindi doesn't attract people from young generations. It's a pity most of the students from Delhi and Bombay like metropolis can't talk fluently in Hindi and can't even count beyond 10. We all need to think what we are , are we being driven by a trend or still carrying the so-called "legacy of the Britishers", are we really a free country or a country led by Indians but on British values and thoughts, do we really own this country like the way it used to be?

    Son, it's time to think and stand, our fate is in our own hands, one can succeed by applying one's original methods and not by simply imitating others. We should not be the one who emulates others rather we should be the ones who make our own ways and make others to follow it. I urge our youngsters to get themselves out of the bewilderedness of the modernization to the light of the actualization.
