- Formalities plays an important part in our Life and Economy.
- It is mainly based on Emotional attachments than on the Logical Reasoning.
- Formalities can be best understood by the statement, "to complicate simple case, so that many gets income opportunity or to pull more money from a customer".
- Having some natural resources, and development of a control system to consume that resources in sustainable manner, leads to the development of several formalities.
- With time & situation, natural resources change, and old formalities should also keep on changing. Like Diwali is said to have started in the time of Ramayan, and Holi from the time of Puranas. In modern time, I don't find these festivals to have any relevance, but these are continuing due to socio-political reasons, but is not supported by the environmental reasons.
- Formalities makes our Religion, Culture, Caste, Language, Country, Traditions, structures like Temple, Mosque, Gurudwara, Church, Political structures & Symbols, Fashion & Uniform, Flag, Brand and other intangible assets, etc.
- It makes our Lifestyle and Food habits.
- Our many Festivals and Celebrations are nothing but some Formality ! These were formed to unite the people towards a common goal.
- Best example of some formality, is marriage rituals & party. In real sense marriage is just union of two body to form a synergistic relations and/or offspring. Similarly on death of a person, there are many formalities like mourning, community feast, etc. Decisions taken to satisfy pride and pamper.
- In business like Army/Security, formalities between Senior and Juniors are important.
- Formalities can cause Pollution and harm to the Environment. Examples are, lights and crackers on Diwali, Animal sacrifice for festivals like Bakarid and at some temple offerings, Chemical colours on Holi, Holika-dahan, Burning of Ravan effigy on Dussehra, Jallikattu, Halloween festival, Loud Sound DJ & Orchestra, War, Arm-race, Hunting for pleasure, Food wastage, Dumping & Landfill, etc.
- Delays in Government & legal services, is also an example of formalities to pull more money from the customers.
- In some Hospitals, unnecessary forced spending on testing, operations, etc. with objective to add revenue to the hospital than to help the patient, is a formality.
- In some education, many spending on coaching, exams, textbooks, etc. are for economic formality than to make the student educated.
- In some business, many seller put attractive packing, and labels, but doesn't provide quality/genuine product, this Cheating is also an economic formality.
- Formality also helps to create music, art and other entertainment, amusement based economy.
- In systems of high formalities, cost increases and efficiency decreases. Customers satisfaction also decrease. This may lead to unrest. Under competitive pressure from other Systems, its competitive edge will decline.
- Non Formal or Reasoning based Life: Scientists, Reformers, Critics, etc. try to form a life & education free from formalities, but since they too have to depend on the economy of there country, and they cannot answer many mysteries of Nature & Destiny, they cannot fully get out from there existing formalities. Examples: Einstein's spooky action at a Distance, ‘God does not play dice’
- Formality free pure life is also a move towards Vairagya ! कसमें वादे प्यार वफ़ा सब बातें हैं बातों का क्या कोई किसी का नहीं ये झूठे नाते हैं नातों का क्या
