How to take the essence and remove the dross?

When old and new cultures collide, in order to adapt to the new form and keep the traditional culture lasting, people often say that we should take the essence and remove the dross. By constantly remodeling traditional culture, it can gradually adapt to new changes. These words have also become a pin in the heart and are not easy to hold. But can traditional culture be achieved in this way to keep traditional culture long lasting?

In fact, it is very difficult, if not impossible.

In fact, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to do so.

First of all, culture is an environmental product, and in different environments, different cultures are created. This results in a very high dependence of culture on the environment, and when the environment changes, people's need for and dependence on culture will change. For example, if some places have a tradition of hunting, their culture will be centered around hunting. When the hunting environment changes, the corresponding culture will become somewhat incomprehensible, especially to the later people can not imagine the reason.

Secondly, culture is a whole, basically are interlocked, the dregs are also one of the means to maintain cultural traditions or the environment, only to take one of the ring, the rest of the discard, in fact, has been the destruction of the traditional culture of the fragmented, more this is not the original version of the traditional culture. This is the first time that I've ever seen a movie in which I've had a chance to see a movie in a different context.

Finally, human beings are the carriers and transmitters of cultural traditions, and they also have a strong comparative psychology. People are very sensitive to changes in the environment, and will make adjustments quickly to changes in the environment. After the social environment changes, people will change according to the changed environment, against the existing culture. In this way, the traditional culture will be discarded and no longer recognized. With the carriers and transmitters gone, traditional culture will sunset.
