Culture does not necessarily define a person, but it does influence one’s beliefs and values. Culture can be defined as shared patterns of behaviors, ways of thinking, and interactions that are learned through socialization. Your genetic make up, most likely, will not change, unless you are somehow introduced to radioactive substances. Culture, however, because it is learned, it can vary and it can change over time. When analyzing culture, people tend to focus on certain aspects such as religion, music, language, diet, and education. Culture seems to have a definitive and infinitive meaning. This means that while culture can focus on certain aspects of ones life, it is not confined to one particular definition. Culture can vary. My definition of culture is that it is a learned behavior due to family history, environment, and social interaction.

Without a doubt, the way a person a raised has a huge impact on their life. Parents teach their children how to be a good person based on their own beliefs. If a parent grew up from a poor background, then that parent may instill the importance of education and hard work. If a parent grew up being overweight, then that parent may instill the importance of eating healthy and exercising. In other words, the next generation is learning behavior patterns to hopefully better themselves as a whole.

Where one grows up can have many influences on what they think and how they behave. If a person were to live in the mountains, then their perception of cold weather will be different from a person who lives by the beach.

The word ‘Culture‘ originates from the Latin ‘culture’ stemming from ‘colure’, meaning “to cultivate”.
It refers to symbolic things and activities used by a particular group of people to give them significance and importance. Culture is reflected in music, literature, painting and sculpture, theatre and film.
Culture can also be referred to as the human capacity to classify, codify and communicate their experiences symbolically. Based on these definitions, we can truly consider Indian culture as one of richest in the world.
However, it also means that the less we perform activities, which are part of the group that we belong to, the more endangered our culture becomes.
So I ask myself – “Is Indian culture on the decline? Are we replacing our values and traditional practices with others, and is that such a bad thing?” For starters, I don’t go around in a ‘Dhoti’ with ‘Tilak’ on my forehead; instead I put on my denims, stick the i-pod headphones in my ears and listen to some punk rock.
Is culture defined and frozen in time? So should we all be in Dhotis and follow the caste system, or do we let ourselves evolve slowly? Is it slow death of our culture as the traditionalist would call it?
Quite clearly, as we look around us, the world is not frozen in time so it must be some core rules that transcend time.
What are these rules? Respect your parents, work hard, and ask forgiveness for your sins once in awhile, etc… Woah!!! Hang on! these are too generic, you say! “Everyone pas these.” Ahhhh! So, culture helps differentiate one group from another therefore there must be something unique about us Indians.
Is it our food, the cricket, Bollywood, shared history, our religious celebrations, etc? Or is it also our values such as honesty, our humility our respect and warmth for one another. Well, I have not changed as far as those are concerned.
Will it sound better if I said I am increasing my cultural horizons to include] other things like Punk rock and RAP? Can I get away with it if I change slowly instead of quickly will start with music and clothes for the 20 years of my life. Then I might tweak my film choice from Bollywood! Hollywood. Sorry, I forgot video games… I need my Video games and MTV shows.
