The answer to the second question is spot on. Such kind of attitude makes for a better life experience than one where we have all these expectations to achieve, moving helter and skelter like a lost bee!
The new generation definitely have a mind of their own, and sadly, some of our thoughts are very divorced from reality.
I feel that while we move ahead towards the modern society we still need to stay connected with our roots. These old traditions are not made to bind us in any way, each one of them has strong significance to it, but now very few people try to understand the significance of these traditions.
Exactly so. I think the spirit of these old traditions that were based on deep knowledge or universal principles will gradually be lost in our modern age. Which is sad because people now will feel the missing bit that may not know how to fill up.
