Traditions are profound displays of respect to the Truth of necessity. The deepest and strongest roots of the growing sapling that is society. Resolution to necessity manifests as Tradition and Tradition informs culture.
Culture then, encapsulates Tradition in the same way art does meaning – akin to a talented poet adding sophistry to his creation through the beauty of form. A culture devoid of meaningful tradition is prone to hedonism. It devalues the gravity of necessity and therefore Truth.
Greed, restlessness and insincerity are the foundations upon which an attempt at constructing the pillars of civilization are hastily put together. There can be no veneration, for the beauty of form cannot conceal the ugliness of shallow disposition.
