RE:Moorings Are Needed in Choppy Waters

So what do you mean to say? That there is no Indian culture? Don't deny something just because you are ignorant. Make an effort to find out. Its just stupidity to reject something just because you are ignorant.
So what existed before the America of today before 300 years? Just because you people do not believe in an India culture doesn't mean it never existed. And may I ask what efforts you made to understand it, before saying it never existed? Yes, there are different cultures in India, but there is a common thread to it. We may speak different languages, but the spirit of existence is the same.
And Raj, show some humility. And what is the discipline you are talking about, showing your underwear with your pants worn down when walking on the streets, is that your idea of discipline? What is the family value system in America? Is that the discipline you want to follow? How about taking to drugs when you are a child? Is this the discipline you want to follow?
And stop the stupidity of comparing two cultures. Cultures and practices are born out of ones own response and interaction with his own environment.
There is nothing wrong in sticking to your core values, identify with it, be proud of it and give back something.
Any more abuses will just show expose your lack of intellectual depth and down right ignorance.
Thanks
Jai hind!
