CULTURE -3
Respect for good and fear of bad are the disciplining forces that regulate our life style. It is the moral fear that keeps all our acts in check. Though in the long run one may not achieve visible prosperity, certainly moral fear helps us to keep off such prospects of peril-associated prosperity. Property is not prosperity. Acquisition of property to one’s requirement is understandable, but not the attitude of acquiring an empire.
Prosperity is living a healthy life and seeing
our children lead responsible life. Again life is a product of one’s own
preferences for contented peace and composure or for searching the limitless
target of material wealth. For both the extremes one has to be systematic in
approach facing the consequences right through. Cultivating healthy ideas from
a moral plane can help us to minimize tensions. Health and peace are products
of habit and mind. Several issues in life are associated with the mind.
Our culture
teaches us to be simple and purposeful to self and society by regulating the
mind. Nurturing these tenets and infusing the idea to the children may help
them in later life in avoiding tensions
Avaricious plans and extravaganza in daily life can destroy peace and
health. Learning to live within means is
the highest form of culture bestowed and blessed by Divinity. What better can
one aspire for?
In its basic feature , culture wishes to stay in a calm corner far from the bright beam of light or the lime light. Obscurity by itself has the innate elemnt of safety -not being an object of public gaze even on the face of achievement. In passing it can be said that culture is far from gloss, pomp and cacophony .
