Why We Are Leaving Our Tradition? - हमारी संस्कृति में क्या बुराई है?
कमल:
I can tell you one incident when I was in hostel (In kanpur) once we have celebrated 'kale kauva'. We had made pua and bada in our hostel mess. Many non-pahadee also enjoyed the dishes and they also joined in dance and music.

Kamal Ji,
I agree with you. There several pahadi festival held time to time even people particularly in cities do not aware about them. It is the responsibility of parents also to teach make their children aware about these festivel so that the new generation maintain the cultural values.

The karava chauth is celebrated because media is marketing it. Nobody is marketing Vat-Savitri. So we should take the initiative. How many of us know all the festivals and customes of our own culture.
This forum is started to fill that gap only. So let's creat awareness and everybody will start liking our culture.

Uttarakhand culture have great traditions for the years, we have almost one festival every month with start of a new month. But in our present generation hardly any pahri can tell those all festival names. But other hand leaving our great traditions and rich culture we are running behind the other culture accepting their traditions and customs. It I feel shameful, we have to rethink about it, our traditions and customs should not become a fashion statement or influence of media hype. I give you some examples:
1. Cake cutting and lighting off the candle, it is very wrong tradition we start every function or event with lighting of lamp and in a birth day part we are doing just oppsite. I feel it very objectionable, since we have also have our traditions of celebration of birthday with Kartkeya Puja and other rituals.
2. Karwa Chauth fast is very common nowadys due to the propeganda of medi but hardly any woman know about VAT SAVITRI AMAVASYA or HARITALI FAST.
3. Marriage celbrations are become now all punjabi show sha, Mehandi, Jai mala etc all are not in our tradition other hand we are not performing our customs in marriages.
4. We are leaving our old tradition of Jagaran, Jagar and Puja as it is orthodox and we are performing Mata ki Chowki and Mata ka jagrata which is totally commercialised.
I am not against any culture or traditions, but if we have some customs & traditions why should we leave them and accept others customs just because of media hype.
We have to learn from Punjabis that after show many set back they people remain their identity all over the world with their great traditions of Punjabis at the level that Punjabis become the symbol of Indian Culture.
I we want to identify ourselves as Uttarakhandi/Pahari we have to rethink over it and go to our roots and rediscover our great traditions, culture and customs. I think there is nothing wrong in it and it is not against any other culture or people.

सत्य वचन जोशी जी,
जन्म दिन पर मोमबत्ती बुझाना बहुत गलत है, उस दिन अप्ने इष्ट देव की पूजा अर्चना करनी चाहिये और बडों का आशीर्वाद लेकर तै (पूडी बनाना) लगानी चाहिये. लेकिन हम लोग यह न कर के केक काटें या मोमबत्ती बुझायें तो यह अपशकुन ही होता है.
करवा चौथ या शादी में नये ट्रेंड आना गलत भी नही है, हां यह नहीं होना चाहिये कि हम अपने रिवाजों को छोड कर अन्य रिवाज अपनायें.
भगवान की पूजा के मामले में कोई भी समझौता नहीं किया जा सकता, क्योंकि यदि अब भगवान कहीं हैं तो वह देव भूमि में ही है. हमने आज तक सारे विश्व को हमने ही आस्था और धर्म का ग्यान दिया है.
मेरा तो साफ मानना है कि जितने भी हमारे पुराने ट्रेडीशन है, वे सब वैग्यानिक आधारों पर हैं, इसलिये उन्हें छोडा नही जा सकता, ये हमारे पुरखों की अमूल्य धरोहर है.
Anubhav / अनुभव उपाध्याय:
Yeah this thing can only done by creating awareness among the Non resident Uttarakhandi's.
