Using THREE (3) practical examples from your own cultural background, demonstrate the assertion that culture is dynamic and socially created.
"Culture is indeed dynamic and socially created". This can be evident from the following examples-
1- I am an Indian and belong to Hindu religion. The ancient Indian facets of life and the Hindu way of living individually and their blend as well has resulted in forming the best possible cultural aspects.
Yoga is one of the best brainchildren of India which was pioneered by Indian sage "Patanjali". It gradually got transformed into various forms, It really indicated that change is a necessary prerequiste in life. Numerous experimentations evolved a good array of Yoga. Today, one can choose what matches to own personality and practise it.
2- Devotion towards the "Creator" is treated a genuine way to live in Indian and Hindu cultures. There are nine forms of devotion mentioned according to conventions and ancient practice. But in the contemporary times following these ways of devotion seems to be pretty difficult as our lives are entirely changed. Therefore, "Namasmaran" (Chanting) evolved as a simple and feasible way for expressing devotion towards "Creator".
3- The rural fairs in India included fights of animals as a means of entertainment. Hens, cocks, bullocks were the animals made to fight. But gradually, as the awareness regarding animal rights spreaded, voluntarily people banned/ left/ gave up organising animal fights and shoed their love, care and affection for animals.
The above mentioned three examples convey that the "Culture is indeed dynamic and socially created".
