No
generation has any right to blame the next generation for the decay in human
values. Human societies sustain themselves by following the tradition of carrying
over what they brought forward from the past.
We human beings are so overawed by death and decay that we never
ever dare to create and renew what has outlived its life. The nature has a
tradition of continuing for as long as it can, but, the essence of traditional
ways of the nature is a continuous renewal for continued creation. We learn much
from the nature, but skip the essence of the continuity of nature. As a result,
we imitate and perish.
Everything is right with bringing forward from the past and,
at the end carrying it over to the next generation. But, everything is not
right in between the two. It is our duty to rectify what is rectifiable, renew
what needs a renewal and create what has never existed before.
We have no right to
blame the next generation, if we fail to do what we must do.
