Anant - his outside and his inside world!

Okay, I was in a humor mood yesterday😆! But I am back with a thoughtful, sober post today!!😳Kya karoo, control nahi hota!!😳

Todays episode gave us a glimpse of Anant struggling between the cultural pressures of his Babaji and the open-minded new generation's approach of choosing their life partners for themselves!😳
Today's youth are a part of the generation where they are more focused on their rights and their privileges!!😳 And that makes the older generation think that today's youth is less
responsible and feel less obligated to continue on the path of our traditions!!😕Are they right or wrong is not my question...coz that question can never be answered!😲
If I ask my dad about it, my dad shall reply.."its good to have your own right of thinking, but culture is an important aspect to be carried forward! Or else, our values and traditions shall be lost forever!"😳
If I ask my friends about it, they shall say.." We are adults now..we are mature enuf to decide whats right or wrong!And we do love and respect our culture ...its just taht we do that in our own way!!😳"

Well, my stand - neither of those thoughts are wrong! 😳And thats how I define a profound term called "generation gap"😳

The Problem at Anant's home is not the culture that is being followed! 😳Maybe there is a reason why that family is the way it is...maybe they believe that they are the culture-setters for the youth today!😃 Maybe Babaji does not want to move away from this mindset and wants to focus on teaching Anant's generation how to live within certain societal guidelines, like he used to during his times!!🥱

But my argument is, is Babji trying to inculcate good values with love or is he doing it by force?!🥱

Babaji is aware that things were different during his time, and then they changed during his son's times and has now changed more during Anant's times!! 😳But Babaji still is not aware taht those changes lead to many other changes!😃 Changes he cud not have imagined during his generation!😛
For example, did babaji know that there shall come a world of internet in future?😳 A world that cud have the capability of people interacting from one end of the world to the other!Look at India-forums..I, who stay in the USA... have friends who sit in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Europe and we share thoughts and passions with people we might never see, never meet face-to-face!😳 I have heard people have fallen in love on the internet and have got married since their view matched perfectly!👍🏼

Babaji needs to get out of the world of illusions that reading a ramayan and giving a pravachan is not what today's generation needs, to understand our culture and traditions!😕 Its far beyond that!!Its about retaining our culture along with moving ahead with the whole world!😳!Its about meeting different people and convincing them that our culture accepts everyone with open arms!🤗!Its about being a person from a background that wants this world to be a peaceful and a happy place to live in!!😊!Its about falling in the beautiful emotion called love, and being a wonderful partner, an understanding parent and an open-minded grandparent!😳
That's our culture...that's our tradition!!!
Okay..now I sound like a Youth "Babaji"..maybe Anant should do a pravachan on these lines...😉😆

Love,
Ritz

u r absolutely right.😳...its all about generation gap.🤔...actually this is the case in most of the families these days...navya's family is more closer to reality...thats the best example😳...but . anant's family... it becomes more like bachoon ko daraana.😡...its like writtten rule book...and there is no questioning😒..baba is under this false pretense that he is always right🤪 and nothing the new generation feels and thinks can be worth folowing😳...so he wants them to follow his lifetime rulebook...

Ritz 🤗
You are as usual right. . .this is how the term generation gap is defined, we shouldn't go against the culture totally, we should carry on the few things that define our culture, but that doesn't mean we don't voice our ow opinions, or that we just blindly follow the traditions, (some of which I can never understand the meaning of) 🤣 We should be able to balance both the things. . .and you are right, Anant should give his pravachan on these lines, after all this is not wrong.. its how the people are today and we are not doing anything wrong in being like this!

hey ritz...i always log in late n post late replies...loved ur post today...its on a more serious note...im confused...uve brought out so many thots...
well, i hate this approach of this hitler...do u think just bcoz he's a preacher n wants to carry on his legacy of discources, he can order a 19 yr old like ananth to preach to people who r much older, mature and experienced in life? n just cant stand the way he glares at ananth n other family members who all seem immobile in his presence!! whats the bond between a grandfather n grandchild here? i ve never seen any grandparent behave so sick in all these years of my life...be it in famiy (close n far), friends or even acquaintances...its so uncomfortable when someone just glares at u like hitler does at ananth all the time with that weirdo smile...and he was even telling him that some things can never ever be changed...indirectly implying ananth cant do things that make him happy, even if they r right???
im sure all of us have difference in opinion with not just our grandparents, but also parents, but no where i guess cud u find this kind of a dictator type grandpa! i feel todays grandparents r more open...lets see which ananth emerges the winner - sant ananth or navya ki ananth!!
