Hello friends,

My opinion about the culture of India still stands. I think that the people of India will not change. Today on the day of our independence also I see the people least interested in our culture. On this day we gained independence but I here stand with a question, have you seen any person to wear a dress that resembles our own Indian culture?
According to me, I have seen the people talk about everything else except the importance of this day. The people who have supported westernization I am not offending them but I ask them all a single question. "Was it possible for us to get westernized if the British would not have given us independence or the freedom fighters like Gandhi or Netaji had not taken any action?".

I would like to say that the decay of our culture lies in our own hands, if we are not able to prevent it from decaying then we may suffer a huge loss.

I think our culture is not decaying. Because, history is a cycle. It keeps on repeating in one or the other way. So one day our culture will be back.

According to my thoughts, our culture is really decaying. We follow the western culture and foreign culture and forget the Indian culture. India is a country of different people and different culture but why we should follow the another culture. Our Indian culture supports the youth for martyrdom, support for unfair, support for saving other life, respect the elders and elders, avoid drugs and many much more things. But today we follow different culture like forget the respect of teachers and elders, avoid nation love etc if we really want to follow the western culture and foreign culture, first of all, we know very well they were follow some points like cleanliness, systematic and good management, punctual of time, and invent a different things but they can't follow the Indian religious culture or agriculture etc. For adjoining this foreign culture media and technology plays a very vast role.

Dear readers,

Do you want to know the harsh truth why CULTURE is decaying? The answer is simple, IGNORANCE. The citizens of India are ignorant. The kids of generations are ignorant. I see many kids these days who use cheap, vulgar words to call their friends.

I see kids calling their friend's in bad words. The kids don't even know what comes out their mouth. They dye to colour their hair red, blue and yellow.

You would amaze to know how much kids idolize movie stars. They engage in silly fights, for instance, they fight over movie stars,

Friend 1:- Salman is best, Bhai acting is worth oscar.

Friend 2 :- no, dude Salman sucks, SRK movies blockbuster!.

In terms of fashion, girls kill it. I mean really kill it. They get inspired by Hollywood movie stars walking red carpets.

There was someone who asked whether you would dress Gandhi to an event. NO! is the answer. But I would something decent not indecent.

Hi.

According to my perspective, our culture is not decaying. If it had been, it would have demolished by this time. If it had been decaying since Mughal or British attacked India it would not have a small trace of it by this time. But our culture could fight and stand still despite all these.

Our country has protected and respected all the philosophy and knowledge of our culture, no matter how many ever countries conspired to destroy the precious knowledge and tried to impose their culture on us.

I agree with a fact that some generation particularly youths are more attracted towards Western culture. I I hope in the certain point of their life they would be enlightened by the peacefulness attained by following our culture. The most brighter side is that Western people are adopting our culture and are willing to have the precious knowledge.

In my opinion, our culture is decaying because we have no idea what do, our younger generation get spoiled by copying western culture. They always stick to the computer and doesn't know his responsibilities.

In my opinion, our culture is decaying because we learn more negative things from western culture rather than positive thing like drinking of girls, dressing sense. Apart from that we also suggest everyone to do such thing.

Hi, friends.

According to me, our culture is decaying. In our day to day life, we see people saying that western culture is so "advanced". We also see people saying that we must always follow the western culture but according to me do we ever see those people follow it themselves? I think not. Whenever I go out of my house the one thing I always notice in the streets is the amount of garbage which is spread on the streets. Now this is not an example of westernization. It is true that western people are much more concerned about cleanliness. There is no harm in following the culture of other nations but if we want to follow it we must do it sincerely. Our forefathers were not like us. They always maintained the cleanliness because of their clear minds or some or the other superstitions. Nowadays the people of our nation have become more rich, more powerful, and more blind to all the moral values. Therefore they do what they want to do and follow their own minds without thinking about the consequences. Therefore I conclude that our culture is decaying and it will certainly decay if we don't take the appropriate measures to stop it.

With foreigners accepting our traditional ways and methodology of living and surviving, we ourselves are just busy in aping their traditions in the name of freedom. But we forget that with freedom comes great responsibility and in this scenario our responsibility is not only to maintain a balance between two cultures but also respect and treat our cultures equally from the depth of our hearts and not just for the heck of it so that we can carry forward our identity with our future generations the way our ancestors did.
