Complying with tradition gives me a sense of oneness with a particular group of people. And that's probably the only reason why I observe certain traditions. Why do some people wish random people on the road during New Year's Day? (I've done that!)
Is celebrating the birth of a new year a 'tradition'? I believe it is. Just that the tradition is universal. And why do we do it? Is it just to celebrate the birth of a new year? Would we still do it if nobody else do?
I believe we mark these days —be it universal festivals like New Year's day or religious ones like Christmas, Ramzan or regional ones like Pongal etc. —because that's how humans develop a sense of oneness, a sense of belonging to a community.
I think this is innately built into human beings. Everytime during Pongal, when I drape on a veshti I kind of develop an affiliation with other people who celebrate pongal.
I believe that as time runs its course, we'll eventually abandon all our race or culture specific traditions. In other words, I'm of the belief that cultures are assimilating into one. There will be a day where intermarriages would have stripped off the distinctions between a German, a Chinese, a Russian or an Indian.
Until then, we'll always belong to some community. Getting back to the question, I think we should just let time run its course. Don't try too hard. Don't press too hard about 'preserving' your culture. Has the Indian culture stayed the same for 2,000 odd years? Absolutely not! So whose culture here are you preserving exactly?
I don't think the preservation of any culture, language or tradition should be forced. If people collectively want to do something, so be it. Let time run its course. The problem is that if you let time run its course, you'll end up with traditions getting assimilated. Some people don't like it. Personally, I don't mind. I don't really care if 100 years down the line, someone doesn't celebrate Indian festivals like we do today. (Do we celebrate the festivals our ancestors did?)
I just don't think I have anything to do with an “Indian” who lived 1,000 years ago. I try not to take pride in the things he or she did. (I usually do. Sorry, human instincts) I won't follow his or her tradition because he lived in the same country I do today, and I won't expect the same of someone who will be born 100, 500, 1000 years later.
