Just as language continually evolves, culture too is constantly changing. We can neither stop that change nor should we try to. What we can do is make a conscious effort not to forget our cultural heritage.
Occasionally, we come across rare individuals who take upon themselves the enormous task of preserving and passing on that heritage. People such as Badri Kurma Rao and S. Vem. Ramesh belong to that distinguished group.
