Indian weddings traditions changing really??

Are Indian traditions changing?

We ll, if you look closely , i guess , it wouldn't be jumping the gun to say that the traditions and customs are naturally altering. Talking about traditions previously there was a tradition that would be bride and groom were not even suppose to see each other let alone spending time to each other better.

NOw a days , we in india feel families to be quiet extrovert who let their girl out with the boy alone on a arranged date , even after doing it the elders never fail to mention that its because of the changing time we need to do this as they would never take full responsibilty of what they might think might happen. Well as you know, most of the fears, anticiptions and doubts are fuelled by the oil of thoughts more than the reality which can be as much as nothing at all.

It was also a tradition that the girl will not in any cirscumstances enter the would groom place (as they didn;t know each other before marriage thus, it didn't happen much) but in today's boy and girls who graduate from friendship to lovers and later man and wife do see , meet and visit each other before the holy matrimonial takes place.

Thus, it wouldn't be odd to step of the side of the lines which determine taht times are changing.

Face to face the world.

Interestingly , like any other country , however much more than that Indian belive in showing more than what they have. As it is believed that we get more if we have more through God and through law of human nature.

One person lets us take an example of minister, would get more expensive gifts from all his allies and businessman as they believe that whosover gives the most expensive and likeable gift would win the heart of the minister and he could be used to many future business endeavours. But if a poor guy who has not eaten anything asks same set of people for food they would avoid even looking at him let alone sparing change for him.

Thus, people show their best face in the society as the moment you are seen below the 'acceptable level' people tend to phase away or even change the way they interact with you. Thus, this is directly propotionate and is seen in direct effect which people shell out money while for weddingeven if the money is borrowed as the face they show will directly affect the way people behave then and after wth them.

The point stands, do we really need those people who would first be after you and would leave your back if they find a person richer than you, well this all stands and is always thought about and never acted upon, as we still continue to do our best to show our best face in the society we eternally hate.
