Hinduism and their mental consequences

Childhood, culture and Family.

 Talking about mental health might be difficult in the modern world. Everyone is coping with their own psychological trauma, but nobody really talks about this problem. I believe that most people are being forced into this predicament by their families. In terms of my own culture, I come from a Hindu one where children are subjected to pressure concerning their physical appearance, caste system, upbringing, and constraints from a very young age. We are cautioned not to transgress certain societal boundaries because we were born into a Hindu family. In my culture, society is primarily to blame for mental instability, which is an incredibly inappropriate practice.



I used to wonder why we are required to stand in line and worship stones yet we are taught from birth to visit temples and seek blessings. When I used to question how I could believe in and worship someone I had never met in person, I was labeled as an atheist. Hinduism is a religion that has maintained religious practice for a very long time. Each religion has its own set of Gods that are worshipped. Although I have my own way of believing and don't feel the need to visit temples or worship stones, I do believe in the power that the world possesses. God will guide you on the proper path when your soul is pure. 



In contrast to the UK, where people keep to themselves, society is more involved in your life in our culture. Even if your life is going well, people will still have something negative to say; we cannot force people to be happy. People will make pointless remarks, which will make you feel under pressure to doubt your existence. My mind has been under a lot of strain in the past regarding my studies, body type, skin tone, marriage, etc. Being a human, I experience sadness, discouragement, and used to sob silently in the dark. But I stand tall from all the judgments and here I am today being fearless and most importantly in a happy place.
