To where we are going ?

Chinmoy!

seems experience is speaking here! have you had any experience?

Hmmmmmmm!Lots of......!

When we were kids we used to glue to television sets to see Ramayan and Mahabharata which obviously infuse some good influence on our lifes. Now in absence of such serials its a waste. Even Ministery of broadcasting is to be blamed for allowing unwanted exposure to adult contents on audio and visual media. Hope this all is brought under strict control gradually by authorities.

Kerala people are known for drinking, and because the festival means holiday, people take their leisure time drinking on holidays..

Now a days drinking alcohol has become part and parcel of youngsters life. People consider drinking alcohol as an extra qualification. Nobody wants to be a teetotaler.They drink for no reason. celebration, death.. for everything they drink.

Indicating growing impact of foriegn culture in India. I am afraid one day we loose our entire values to it :( .

Its because there is a lack of interest in enriching one's knowledge and culture. People have no single interest such as a hobby or something like reading good books, or listening to music etc. Plus increased income and access to liquor, they ar eprone to drinking more and more. The real meaning of any festivals and the purpose behind such celebraions is all lost out in face of blaring walls of huge speakers in public places and drunk people dancing like idiots!

we have made our culture such a boring one, and such narrow-minded that many of the young generation start feeling that the indian culture has become obselete.

How come they conclude like that it's is obsolete before even knowing them!!!

Indian Culture is so unique. It is so precious for a person who love it and follow it. :)

It's always desirable to be open to other cultures but one must be rooted in his or her own culture.

we all are responsible for that, we never argue with this kind of culture, in-fact we always welcome them.

I don't understand where todays people are heading towards...

During Ganesh visarjan time people are heavily drunk, for they want to dance for longer hours....bad...

This culture has caught on the Indian youth.I even hear school students have contracted this vice!

Recently saw the Ganesh nimarjan in one of the news channels then i came to know the reason behind the deaths..Most of the people were drunk they are not able to manage themselves..

Really disguisting.. :angry: even id death happens maybe this can be the reason..in drunken state they can easily slip and die.

Taking to hard drinks at such a young age is the surest prescription to misery and untimely death!

The maid who works at my home constantly complains that her husband wastes all the money she earns in drinking. Isn't it unfortunate?

It's the poor people looking for escapes from harder realities of life take to this and the results have been ruinous!

Well most of the poor people have the same complaint about their husbands and even sometimes manhandling is also done...My maid have that problem She gets beaten often and sometimes unable to resist she tries to beat her husband back..

In really they are not unfortunate Sajee, the problem is they dont have proper planning about what to do with the money and laziness is another reason...they want to drink and escape work for some days with the money...but they dont think about the family and children...Most of the cases are like that only.. :angry: :(

Yes, I completely agree with Kavitha and Rajani. People drink so badly during the ganesh nimarjan. :(
