| Lifestyle Dilemma |
The 21st century has started with the new approach for the new generation to change our ideas and perspectives of life. Being in the world of technology and digitizing our life we embarked on the new era of fast and furious lifestyle. There is no point to stop and look behind to follow the old concepts and patterns. All the world is racing with the time to grow and evolve as a successful human kind in their abilities and competence to be with nature.
But there are few constraints being in the social realm of society which prevent us from doing what we want on the basis of our beliefs and ideas. The conventional ways of our system, which comes to haunt us every step of life when we want to see the new turn or upside downside of the situation that is our culture, which creates the barriers for us, to be limited up to born to a community. No matter where we hail from but we all have desires, goals and dreams to touch the sky. These are the ambitions which fuel us to reach the heights.
Today in Indian society, culture conflict has become the main confusion in the mind of people where people are stuck in the fascination of adopting western pattern of living in society as to get more freedom, rights and advance to be in front every time. But our society is majorly divided in the two areas as rural and urban culture, where people coming from rural areas are still stuck in backward and regressive thinking competing with urban lifestyle in a superficial manner.
On the basis of physical amenities and conveniences obtained they consider them to be more progressive but the truth is that refinement of our thinking pattern is more necessary to adapt with every part of society and community. The entire world is connected to each other and theory of interdependence makes us live as a social human being. Though our intellectual decides, whatever is useful for us and not.
The generations of different span clashes to each other for granting the permissions what is or what is not acceptable in the society. The young generation is completely influenced by western culture to work in a global environment finding themselves more efficient in a knowledgeable manner. However, the rural population is still uncomfortable to find western culture more suitable for them.
Their minds get distorted and perverted through the brightness of urban culture where women can roam free, pursue their goals out of limitations of society and prove them to be side by side with the men. The people from rural culture who have always seen women under veils and in a traditional get up refuse to accept the women from urbanization approach and their lifestyle and unable to determine, the clothes can not decide the person's virtues and vices.
They criticize the freedom of women because the dependence of women on men is defined as moral and ethical for them. The conventional approach is so set in their mind that knowledge behind exploring the world is not their cup of tea. Their conservatism never let them do come out of well to analyse and see the picture with full wisdom.
And the repercussions come in a gruesome form of crime against women, which is the most worrisome part for the Indian government. People blame the western culture to reason for the divorces, individuality, crimes, and nuclear families. But the truth is that people are entangled in the web of lifestyle adopted from the western and Indian traditions both, where they follow customs and rituals of Indian but follow the western culture on the outer side. The clash of both creates chaos in the society.
Because they are never able to analyse the depth of the matter, they don't take decisions with maturity and fall in the danger of breaking down in the relations. This is not the fault of western culture, rather it is the fault of self weakness in understanding the importance of moral and ethical values in our life, which we have to sustain with for our well-being.
People blame to the western countries for us to following them but the true thing, can we imagine our life without western culture, where from the use of technology in every area of life we are adopting their knowledge and ideas, This is the gift of western culture which has helped the women to come out of their shells and find their true identity, being independent and women empowerment. Now the women of India are equally participating in every area of society and making us proud of our country. Westernization has helped to break our traditionalism, orthodoxy and conventional-ism to make us stronger than before. So there is nothing wrong in western culture . The only wrong in our approach towards culture and our weaker mind sets, which we need to handle intellectually and wisely.
