Modern relevance in connection to the Research scholar’s thesis

The research scholar says.” Knowing our roots from where is our origin, who are we connected to, what we follow, is a true crux of our existence. This is known as our culture, it denotes to our true selves.

The present world has seen progress in terms of a bullet train, where in daily existence and survival we need to trigger ourselves in our own fast paced world but unfortunately when asked about our roots, culture and traditions we fall nil and blank. There are many reasons for this lag and lack in knowledge. They are–

1) Migration
2) Fast economy
3) Foreign cultural influence
4) Survival
5) Cocooned staying in ones comfort zone in a metropolitan city or urban cosmopolitan crowd zone

The result, our this generation is clueless of relations, routes, culture, traditions moreover trackless and lost is our present generation, but some do get intrigued to knowing and racking our ancient rich culture traditions to get back in our society.

People and follow to keep alive of our traditions for them and their children to know. The research scholar is sure that her research topic and effort would definitely intrigue the younger generation in her community and curious minds out in the society at large to know about their past and people around the world to know this as a live culture INDIA still follows in the interior parts of Tulunadu.
