What has been happening to us , now a days we are going in lighter vein in use of words while talking of serious matters regarding morals , culture and Indian thoughts . we are breaking loose from Indian way of life and gravity or seriousness of superiority that we Indian had and should maintain .
We have , since the time immemorial , a vein of Proverbial -Wisdom ; a seam of golden thought that has been and now being recognized by the whole World as superior and matchless but we are there , who are in the mood of affectation using cheaper words to show only , as something , novel . these people do not know that we , Indians and our thoughts and culture and legacy all that we have were ever-old , ever-new . say ancient -novel i. e. Eternal .
see some lighter trend in use of our words .
1 - word, ' value ' for ' virtue .'
2 - word , 'administration ' and 'management ' for ' service ' and ' help '
3 - word, ' self-management ' for ' self control '( sanyam = yam + niyam ) and ' celibacy '
4 - word , ' art of life/living ' for ' science of life ' we call ' metaphysics ' = adhyatm.
5 - word , ' sex education ' for ' moral education and biology ' or ' human psychology '
6 - word , ' discipline ' for ' self discipline ' that is - 'anushashan .'
7 - word , ' leadership ' for ' individual growth and development ' that is , '' aptdipobhaw . ''
These are few common examples that show our so called intellectuals' novel words borrowed from others in western countries . but this trend is far from our Indian way of thought and culture and we are falling apart at the seams that may cause irreparable loss to us and our INDIAN CULTURE .

i am fully agreed , we have shown the way of humanity/ Sc / literature/arts to the world ie. we r older in respective fields, but unfortunatly we r facinated by our own borrowed newly covered presented from west.
Hello Sir,
Well pointed out, in such chaotic world as in today, we never had time to think when these words were replaced from our day today dictionary.
Well What I feel, these words are replaced as an well formed strategy, large scale mass communication (New One for 'Propaganda') by western media to lure the judicially and politically ignorant people, towards globlization and Corporation's World.(Western media is largely powered by wealth of these corporations.)
So as in education, where value and moral based education, is replaced by glamourous alternatives M.B.A, faishon etc. These words also follow the same nexus.
'Things should sell' is the main motive and not to intrigue people towards morality, thoughtfulness, gravity... (The indian values as mentioned).
I read this forum since 2 weeks and now i have decided to register to share with you my ideas. [url=http://inglourious-seo.com]:)[/url]
