The Two Paths of Life	Nithin S	Add Comment
What has India learned from 1962 In 1962, Indias lofty claims to represent the third world countries, a country developing in the so-called Gandhian way of non-violence and democracy came to an abrupt end when the Chinese army started coming down from the high mountain like wave after wave and India had no defense apparently. A careful analysis should say that India has learned nothing and India today is in a worse condition than in 1962 considering both the international and domestic situation. Before 1962, India got at least ...	D Basu	life in india: Guess you are no Indian or consider yourself upper caste and class! Please realize, India is going population strong, resources are not keeping up with the demand. no land to build facilities, and everyone is trying level best to jump the line! No pa.... [2 comments]
Falling Fortune of India Rapid decline of the fortune of India in recent months can imply a number of aspects. It can mean the economy is adjusting for the growing inflation in India and the resultant falling export volumes. Or it can mean there is a fear for the greater deficits in balance of payment due to rapidly rising cost of imports of petroleum. It can also mean fear among the so-called short run institutional investors, who have invested through Mauritius, that the government may clamp down on them sooner or lat...	D Basu	Add Comment
Analyzing Muslim Asymmetric Wars The trilogy of Islamic scriptures glorified the life of Mohammed and a statistical analysis (3*) of the scriptures by the Center for the Study of Political Islam – a Jewish think tank identified Jihad against Kafirs or infidels as a core value of Muslim political ideology for global domination. The ongoing jihadi terrorism is the best Muslim weak powers can do to try in futility to impose their will on non-Muslim followers in pursuing control of infidels lands, wealth and women....

Rahul Gandhi Ko Gussa Kyun Ata Hai Look, I did not mind becoming an MP since I know that I am a Mediocre Person. But I have resisted all temptations to be part of the government or be a minister, because then you are responsible and liable to be blamed for all the departments faults. I do not want to give anybody the opportunity to humiliate me. I am smart enough to learn it from you! Akhir beta kiska hun? ...	Arindam B	Add Comment
A Nation of Sexed Up Priorities Sandusky will probably spend the rest of his life behind bars for sodomy, but, killing thousands of families, financially, gets a slap on the wrist. Is there something wrong with this picture? We, as a nation, are really screwed up with our priorities. Even if I deliberately wanted to avoid the Sandusky sex scandal trial I couldnt – its on every radio program, cable, and networks, with panels of crowing legal experts debating the sordid odds, like in Las Vegas. I cannot understand this obsessive...	Raju P	Add Comment
What are You Grateful for This ThanksGiving? This ThanksGiving November, as I look back on my life within the framework of my goals, vision, commitments and passion, I wonder about what gives life meaning. Especially in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, I wonder if I have learned how to live life to the fullest. If this were the end of the world as we know it, I wonder what I would say. Two words glare into focus…THANK YOU!!...	Raji L	Add Comment

Social Acceptance Equal Self-acceptance? Money and power are primeval prime evils. Elitism and social class division, a derivative of economic stratification, have existed since ancient times and afforded special privileges to their members, with blatant disregard for the rest of the community.Today governments, organizations, and corporations around the world are beleaguered with fraud and endemic corruption stemming from individuals insatiable hunger for money and power. Diverting food aid away from its intended recipients, child lab...	Raji L	Add Comment
Lessons for all from Election 2012 Firstly, the major lesson the Congress needs to learn from this election is the Muslim voters are not as gullible as they might appear to the party. Instead of focusing on good governance and development, the party concentrated on to holding out a poisonous carrot to them. A national party, a party which boasts Indias independence is its achievement, should have had better ideas. It was only sixty years ago the nation was divided based on religion and the nation cannot stare at another fragmenta...	UN Das	U. Narayana Das: The following comment has nothing to do with the article in question. It is in fact an advertisement. Editor, please delete it. [2 comments]
Federalism and National Security No one can deny that the US has greater federalism than most nations and more certainly than India. Each of its fifty states is fiercely independent and zealously guards its turf. The US also has the strongest anti-terror laws in the world and sees no contradiction between federalism and national security. In the aftermath of a rare terrorist attack on US soil in September 2001, the US administration strengthened its intelligence gathering organs. The enactment of the PATRIOT Act in 2001 was the...

"Instant Gratification" Qualify as a Virtue? Patience used to be known as a virtue, but is virtually unheard of in the present-day culture of immediacy. Todays children dont even know the meaning of the word. People want everything, and they want it NOW!Investors expect instant wealth from their financial ventures. Customers expect that theyll look skinny after spending a week at the health club. Students expect perfect scores on tests for which they study the night before. Short-term rewards, short-term gain, instant messaging, instant fe...	Raji L	newyorksysmike: Nice Article and Well worth for reading [1 comments]
Bridging India"s skills gap with OER For decades, people took dynamism and economic growth for granted and saw population growth as a problem. Now weve gone to the other extreme, and its clear that young people are the scarce resource. For past few decadesIndiahas enjoyed healthy demographics.In the second decade of 21st centuryIndia has vast reservoir of unskilled youth, mostly with high school or less education, looking for opportunities to get ahead. The sustained economic growth will be determined by how fastIndia can impart sk...	K Bhatia	Add Comment
The Dream of Vishnu: Nothingness? The Buddhist conception of nothingness today is grossly misunderstood. Many people ask that if the ultimate reality consists of nothingness or emptiness, then why even do anything? People prescribing to such point of view also state that it is all maya, then why should we even do any dharmic actions? Such people see futility in doing their righteous duties for the welfare of the society or dharma. It is similar to the situation of a shattered Arjun who found it useless to fight his enemies on th...
