Indian Culture Vs Western Culture.** Abhi16march Started The Discussion:

Indian culture vs Western culture.
Hello everyone....lets start our discussion on ths topic...

I think both culture are good....and I think WESTERN culture is good in many wayssssss............its very liberal and alwayz ready for a change nd also has INDIVIDUALITY.....and thing which is wrong with our culture is our rigidity....we can not change ourself easily..

I am not saying change ur own culture and accept the western culture only but why we are not ready to accept good things from the western culture.....do u kno both cultures hve got their own sweet charm their culture suits their environment it may not fit in our indian culture.......there a woman walking on beach with a swimsuit may not be an object of attraction because its their way of living...........where as in india a woman walking ina noodle strap tee will also draw a huge attention just because we still have that traditional way of living smwhre............

butwork culturemprofessionalism is better there.people are more punctual, peple are very dsiciplined and they have the manner ..in our India we dont knwo the table manner smet tiems and if we will say westerns are good ..nobdy is ready to accept this...do u know we Indians dont like to folwo the trafic rules....even we dont care and we can split anywhere....we dont know how to talk on phone,...no phone manner......but we can not accept thses things .....we are sying we Indians are very hard wroker and very much dedicated to wrk ..no we are not ...an american ,a british ,german they are far bettr than us ..do u kno if we are wrking of our 60% efficeiny they are wrking with 100% ...is it wrong ??should we not accept these things,...

but when it comes to family ,relation... and deep rooted values..our golden bird india is far better than westrnsssss

    There is a lot of difference between my culture and the USA. And I really love my culture because I grew up on it. Now that I am in america I know American’s culture. When I compare these two cultures, I can see that they are not similar. For example, In my culture most of the time you don't eat alone, if you eat alone people will not be happy because most of the people in our culture eat together with their family or friends. In the US if you eat alone or if you eat with someone it is OK for people.…

    I have noticed that the news channel here always shows the poor side of Indian life. Which is huge population, pollution in big cities, and illiteracy. There are more to Indian life than that. People are warm hearted and respectful to others. A typical Indian family now has a TV, a refrigerator, a transportation, etc. It is hard to drive in India but after while one can get used to driving like crazy. The huge population in India makes life difficult for everyone.…

    The American and Indian cultures have so many differences in family’s relationships. Even though Indians are more familiar but Americans are unfamiliar with their lifestyle at some stages. In Indian culture mostly they will give more importance to their family values other than individual values. On the other hand in American culture, they will not show importance to their family values but they will give more priority to the individual values. While Indians give more importance to their family members but Americans look after themselves. Moreover, Indians will always think about their families even though they are at any place but the American lifestyle, it will not work. Every time Indians are dependent on others. The children’s in the United…

    You have well-organized and structure system of the Hinduism caste system. I agree about the American and Hinduism have similar structure traits of the way people are treated. But the entire world has a caste system and it is unfair the way they treat their people. But that is the way of life and the only thing you can do is live every day as it could be your last.…

    In India people tend to judge one another based on their personal practices and lifestyles. In America, you have the freedom to live and have any lifestyle without be judged by others. So, with that Americans do not care much about others lifestyles. In America, you have the freedom to live and have any lifestyle without public harassment for the most part. Americans express their individuality and that alone would influence a debate or argument, in India it is based on their internal cultural differences. Furthermore, the view’s and interpretations of Indian population create many issues with cultural consequences. For example, a much needed mortician is low casted by society because he or she needs to consistently be around the dead and touch the dead even though death is a natural part of life (Wood, Jan 2009).…

    In India, physical space is different than U.S. for example, India people stand close to you while standing in line, or if you are at doctor and you waiting for your turn people will sit next you without asking you. In India, it’s normal thing but in U.S. people make distance from each other and they ask first before sitting next to you. Secondly, in India when people meet other people for first time. They just do greeting and eye contact is accepted.…

    15th August 1947, the golden day in Indian History, the day when the British rule in India met its end. It was the day when India was declared free from the foreign rule. The English people have left but they left the seeds of their culture in our land, which have eventually grown and overshadowed the Indian culture, especially in the metros. The Indian culture is so much influenced by the west that they have forgotten the values, the principles and the ethics of our own culture. The people are now loosing their morals, they have forgotten to respect their elders, we have forgotten how to live in a society. The people are becoming more and more self centred, they only take care of themselves and do no even think about others. The night club culture has slowly developed. The youth now is found in clubs drinking and smoking. They now do not like to spend their time with family rather they just want to party at night with their friends. Even the girls have lost their morals. Now a girl going out with different guys for money is not a new site. The use of drugs has increased at a very large level. Now a girl does not feel any shame to show off her body in public or to roam around half naked in front of her own family members. They say it’s "Fashion", but in reality they are just serving the feast for the eyes of the people. The incest relationships are developing throwing the mud on the term "relation". Now a daughter can't trust his own father as the cases of father raping his own daughter are rising. The western culture has also gives some positive thing to the Indian Culture but on the whole it has negatively affected our culture. So to protect us from it we need to change our thinking and rather than running towards west, make ourselves so powerful that they follow rather than us following them.…

    The Roots of the Western civilization may be traced back to 9000 BC, when the first great cultures grew out of agricultural cores in South-West Asia, China, Pakistan, Mexico, and Peru. The Westernmost of this Old World's agricultural cores, the area around the headwaters of the Euphrates, Tigris, and Jordan Rivers in South-West Asia, spread outwards across Europe. [1] Western culture in its strictly European geographical range began with theGreeks, was enlarged and strengthened by the Romans, reformed and modernized by the fifteenth-century Renaissance and Reformation, and globalized by successive European empires that spread the European ways of life and education between the sixteenth and twentieth centuries. European Culture developed with a complex range of philosophy, medieval scholasticism and mysticism, Christian and secular humanism. Rational thinking developed through a long age of change and formation with the…

    Well World is changing, because of lot of developments in various sectors like IT, MANUFACTURING, Revolution of E COMMERCE and many more ... have brought the ties between various nations/ people and their cultures to get mixed with each other.

What not we feel so attracted to all those. But by adopting we dint loose our traditions and culture; we tend to blend both of them.…
