Now Playing: US = Linear compared to Hindi = Circular
Topic: ANYBODY * ANYDAY
In our culture we recognize time differently than those in the Hindi culture.
We see it is a linear.
We see time going forward...in a kind of eternal march of history.
But in India it is circular!
The Hindi word for tomorrow, "kal"
Is the same as the word for yesterday.
Because yesterday is in the future, too.
Kal (yesterday) -
Aaj (today) -
Kal (tomorrow).
This is just a thought
There is no hidden message
It does show a perspective of culture & diversity
