World is one : Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (East should follow West only where required )

World is one, according to phrase in sanskrit from hindu texts. Solutions to different problems of world lies in this. Yes, Modi referred this phrase in one of his speeches but I am referring it in different sense.

Divorces, terrorism, growing discontent, depression, diseases like cancer are evils following us.Eastern world especially South east Asia is blindly following Western world, Western world is coming back to square one. In other words Eastern part is following Western, Western part is following Eastern.

Western world is doing yoga, encouraging women to work from home. East is following west, with more women employed in workforce, eating fast food, more nuclear families are coming into picture. Here East is wrong, following wrongdoings of west, thereby depression, ill health, divorce rates increasing in eastern part of beautiful earth.East should not follow west blindly. Yes, we need more women working but that does not mean living separately from parents. If we continue to do this, one day each of us will be having pets instead of parents like western world. Finding happiness from pets would not help either our parents or us, instead will increase stress, which is also one of the factors for divorces. Fast food is easy way to curb hunger immediately but leads to several health problems is well known fact now.

East should follow west only where west is good. Marriages where money is spent extravagantly, should be stopped. We should follow west, giving just simple parties like west and instead spend money on exploring different places of world or our own country. Those living on marginal lines can spend their money where needed.East should follow west, by actively engaging themselves in atleast one sports just for fitness or maybe doing yoga on regular basis. This is where West is leading the world.

West should follow East where East has been good from several years. Following rich traditions, caring for parents, children will give happiness from inside. Helping somebody gives immense pleasure, happiness. So, why not help own parents, kids. Living together will help. Pets can't replace parents or kids.I may sound rude but it is known thing that most of west society believes or loves having pets. They stay away from parents, they are rich from outside but poor from inside.Also, remember one day you will be parent. Objective of humanity is to live together,help each other. The whole purpose of living is forgotten by West part of the world.

World is one, borrow only good ideas from each other not the bad ones. Rich society might be poor from inside, poor society might be rich from heart. Blindly following won't help. Wise thinking must prevail.

Help each other to grow, good things prevail in both parts. Learn from each other is the message of this moment.
