  • There is no list!

    What traditions have you not kept that your parents had?

    If there were a list, it would help surely to offer a comprehensive answer.

    The point about tradition, like ritual and habit, is the describing of practising of any tradition in detail. All the moves one makes in following or not following a tradition.

    Here’s one top of the mind. I did not learn or was prompted to learn our regional language or dialect one may say. MEWARI.

    My parents speak in Mewari when they meet certain people, but I speak in Hindi. But wait, is this a matter of tradition? Language is a part of tradition, but speaking with others in Mewari, is that a matter of tradition?
