OUR CULTURE.

last WEEK OF LAST MONTH,WHEN I WAS SEARCHING A TV CHANNEL,I SAW A PROGRAM IN jAYA TV.It was the telecast of carnatic music competition held in U.S.A.Some parts of competitions are showing from Monday to Friday in Jaya tv.Most participants are Tamil students and some Telugu students.These students are living their with their parents.All know to speak their mother tongue Tamil.They wear their traditional dress,girls silk skirts,half sarees.The judges are from Tamil nadu,famous Soumya,Naivali Santhanam.

The competition is tough one.All students learn music not for competition but to study it .Here in Kerala some learn only to participate in reality shows, for fame ,money.
Here we malayali people are just against Tamil people.They are not bothered about our culture &tradition.Kerala people will wear dhotis in some temples like Padmanabhaswami temple.In all other occasions they wear pants or jeans.They teach their children western music,drum,git tar etc.They feel proud in this.They contempt those ,who learn our music,&instruments like Chenda and other.
Some schools not allow to speak in Malayalam or wear dhotis in school on some occasions.
Our dress,food ,all are according to our climate.Cotton dress is beneficial in our hot climate.Food helps to keep healthy.Our young generation asks why we ate feast on Onam?We can take noodles,pasta etc on banana leaf.Some parents supports them saying that they don't like rice and other items.But the parents have to say the benefits of our food and culture.
We can accept other countries food,dresses,everything.But we not forget our culture ,traditionanl all.We must pass to the next generation.
