Description | ||||||
The purpose of this research paper is to present a new approach to study the uniqueness of respective cultures, which are mainly concerned-with, their cultural adaptability, by making a specific 'study of the cultural symbol, which in turn it reflects' the persistent ways of thinking in respective cultures. In this paper, I have attempted to make a comparative study of the adaptability of Japan and Myanmar to foreign cultures through the Dragon symbol adopted from Indian and Chinese culture. The symbol of a culture, is necessarily concerned with, the natural environment as well as the creative imagination of the people who live in this culture. Therefore, we can see the originality, of a culture by observing its symbolic representations. Among the conspicuous symbols of ancient culture which are still recognized as important cultural symbols in East and South-East Asia, the Dragon is the most prominent because of its individual character. However, the Dragon symbol is not only limited to its original sphere of mythology and legend; we can also see that the 'Dragon symbol in China represents the idea of natural. Phenomenon rather than religious thought; and that the Dragon symbol in India is' intimately related with religious thought rather than that of natural phenomenon. Etymologically the Japanese Dragon is called by the name "Ryū" which is of Chinese origin, and the Myanmar Dragon, is .called by the name "Nagā'' which is of Indian origin. The Myanmar "Nagā" and the Japanese "Ryū" are recognized as' important' 'cultural symbols in several, phases of their respective cultures not 'only in the case of religious meaning but especially also' in the case of Kingship. In this paper, I have' attempted to grasp this point by analyzing these, symbols, which have a' close connection to Kingship. |
