Big B talks about the importance of sanskar in Hindu tradition

Amitabh Bachchan isn't just known for his long body of work in the movies but also his aura and the way he always carries himself off-screen. Bachchan is known to always be rooted in our culture and is often seen talking about it.

In his recent blog post, Big B remembered his parents, the late Harivashrai Bachchan and Teji Bachchan, thus recalling the emphasis that they gave to 'culture' and the right upbringing of children (giving sanskaar).Bachchan wrote on his blog post, "In Hindu tradition, Sanskar (or Samskara) refers to a series of rites and rituals performed throughout a person's life, aimed at purifying the body, mind, and intellect, and shaping character and personality.

They play a role in shaping an individual's character, values, and behavior, guiding them towards ethical and righteous living."He added, "Sanskars are a way of transmitting cultural values, traditions, and beliefs from one generation to the next, helping to maintain social cohesion and continuity.Fear lessens with the benevolence of Sanskaar .. resoluteness rises .. gives strength and the firm ability to live life ..

In our lives and particularly in our early years Ma and Babuji always gave prominence to 'sanskaar' .. in the way we were brought up .

. and in the way several others were brought up too .. it's a refined quality that was inculcated in us .. That is something that we all treasure as our greatest gift from generations and from the teachings of our elders ..May our 'sanskaar's' ever be in the right directions !!"On work front, Bachchan was last seen in 'Kalki 2898 AD' with Prabhas and Deepika Padukone.
