I will see no inconsistency between what my religion preaches and how I and others practice it. I will dislike people who aren't as exactly religious as I am. I will think that I have become detached. Like American corporations giving involuntary retirement to their employees, my family will involuntarily give me sannyasam precisely when I will not want it. T hen I will recognize that America, like India, is quite diverse, and thrives on diversity.
Diversity is what has made the society great.
With this recognition, I will be comfortable with my identity. I will finally realize that in trying to become an American, I imbibed the values of the some of the people around me. In my psyche, I will become a hybridized species, having made a unique synthesis of values taken from my old world and my new world. I will be a hyphenated American.
