VIEWPOINT

While in US, World looked small like that of looking down from top of a mountain
While in India, World looked huge like that of looking up from bottom of a mountain.
I hope, I need to change my direction of views to reduce this huge difference by always looking up or looking down irrespective of location.

SMILES

It may be the longest word in English, but that's the one which brings down the distance between two people - Smiles

Why most of the Indians are not able to appreciate our own rituals and culture....

After watching the above talk, I was very much impressed with the presenters analysis of east and west philosophies as THE world and MY world, logos and mythos, linear and cyclic etc. As a child and also as an adult i love stories and more specifically, like to listen to them rather than reading. The initial story told by the presenter about Lord Ganesha and Lord Karthikeya was actually a competition conducted by Lord Shiva for a rare fruit of knowledge. Its a well known story in South India and I have never analysed that story interms of objectivism and subjectivism. Since the competition is for knowledge fruit, now it makes more sense to me. This makes me think are we missing the actual content of many hindu mythologies ? Or is it due to our education system which is western makes us think scientifically and rationally, forcing us not to believe in myths involved in our rituals and culture . I am having a strong sense that current generation which are hesitant to follow our rituals are because of our western education system. I believe that if we are educated with our own ancient philosophies from our Vedas and Upanishads may be all those rituals might make some sense. Globalisation is inevitable, we got to have both sort of education system and let the choice be made by the students, once they are adequately knowledgable in both the forms of education system. By that understanding, I guess people will be respectable to each other and peace will prevail.
There are more thoughts in my mind...but i am not able to convert those in words, The above paragraph may be showing glimpses of my thoughts and not coherent enough, I guess in future I might put in a much coherent format.

PROPOSAL

If i want to sell a four letter word the immediate response might be a two letter word, but if you give us some time, may be we can haggle for a while and settle peacefully in a win-win situation with a three letter word.
