INDIAN TRADITION AND RESEARCH

We all Indians say that India is rich in tradition and heritage. But frankly speaking, We WAS rich in them.. Now we are becomming morte and more poorer. We cant keep our valuables UP TO DATE.

There is some definate need of Research on Indian Tradition. From Cloths, to Food. From Festivals to Cerimonies, From Sanskar to Shiksha !

Sanskrit WAS our main language. We all say that Sanskrit is (?) mother of all the languages. Truly it was the most scientific and perfect language. But unfortunetly HOW MANY OF US CAN SPEAK 2 LINES ABOUT OURSELF IN SANSKRIT? We all Force our new generation to learn and to speak and communicate in English since they start speaking. Aai.. Mata is replaced by Mom. Baba, Pita is kicked out by DAD. Is it good? please ask yourself.

Just for a fun.. take a look at the following Sanskrit English relationship. It may sound really pulled up but ITS FACT TOO..
SANSKRIT NAME = English name.
Mathru = Mother
Pithru = Father
Bhratru = Brother.
Nasika = Nose
Aksha = Eye
Danta = Dental
Ooparna = Apron
Waman = Vomit

There are so many words that sound similar.. WHY? HOW?
Are we going to wait for the foreigners to do research on it?

Ayurveda is one of the BEST medical system. Even today, in Allopathy there are no medicines to cure some simple diseases like Jaundice, Prostrate enlargement or even for lactation. But In Ayurveda, these medicines are used for last thousands of years. Our Vaidyas at that time were so grate that they dont need to invent the basic instruments like Stethoscope, but they can get all the information just by feeling and analysing the NADI. But why not today we can develope an Instrument, which will collect the presice information through nadi and give us the correct status of pationts Vata Pitta Cougha composition !

Why we dont even need to analyse the basic movemnts in tradional sports like Mallakhamb, Atyapatya, kabbaddi, Kho kho, Lezim? How many of us know the exact sport of Soorparambya? Its rules? We all Indians must have played the beautiful sport of Langadi once in our life. I dont know whether its Indian origin or not but we must find its origine too.
We all are quite happy with what we got now and mainly we are always worried with WHAT WE WANT MORE. Trupti or satisfaction is the basic power of a living thing. Even a Lion or Tiger dont even look at the passing by deer when he is not hungry. But what about us? WE CREATE OUR OWN HUNGER AND RUN BEHIND IT FULFILLING IT OR FRUSTRATING OURSELF...

We have to change all this... How? Lets discuss..
