Today's new generation have forgotten the roots of the Hinduism and are blindly adopting the so called "modern" culture. Staying current and adopting good aspects from various influences is good but blindly adopting without thinking its smaller and larger implications on society and/or our ecosystem so also forgetting one's origin and ancient value system of our culture and on contrary making fun of it is damaging and self-destructive attitude.
Following principals embedded in Hinduism like, "वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्।" (Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam), besides being passionate about her area of study, Kamakshi has a natural inclination to share and spread the knowledge and authentic information about Sanatana Dharma, Sanskrit and Hindu philosophy gained after extensive study and research in these areas.
