Subject: {UnitedHinduFront} Going after American Way (Consumerism) is confusing for traditional Indian like me
Date: Saturday, June 14, 2008 5:23 pm

The way country is moving right now, ie: ignore our traditional ways
of earning ( Agriculture), living in joint family,sharing with others
what ever they have and moving towards SEZ and MNCs way, have started
having impact on people like me. With village and agriculture
background I feel totally confused as to what will happen in next 5-10
years when large Malls will eat away our smaller trade, vegitable
growers and MNCs will make small farmers idle and be in their service.

The typical Hindu family where all elders were respected is slowly
dying away with respect for money and property. People are not
satisfied with worshiping God in their own houses or nearby temple
with simple traditional ways. Its now a show business to worship your
God with much fanfare..

I am sure that Hindu traditions and culture has survived many attacks
and have existed, but with the people running around for materialistic
object neglecting human sentiments or hurting others is quite
disturbing.
