Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Dear Shabnam, 9-11 stills haunts Americans. Indians forgot "Mumbai Blasts" the very next week. The "attack on Parliament" was another normal terrorist. Earthquakes, floods, landslides, etc are very common in India. The common man in India is brought up with the fact clearly etched in his mind that life is fragile. One who is born must die. Somewhere, our philosophies and outlook towards life are very down to earth and keep life going. We respect our elderly, we are taught to help the needy. Love for money and wealth is looked down at. For a population as large as India, the crime rate is much lower than in US. Bible says "only the meek will survive". Ashutosh - Bioacoustics Valist (AT) (DOT) Com Wednesday, 07 September, 2005 10:40 orleans vs mumbai not to ruffle any sesitive feathers.......but their seems to be the possibility of an inevitable perspective shift comming up for all of us. I think that in the Guiness book of records of the future, America will be written about as the shortest ruling world power/ culture. Some enlightened historians might analyse that it was because America was the power/ culture which believed itself to be above the Universal laws. And since the world couldnt fight American economic & military clout, Nature had to step in to bring back equilibrium. Amen ! Hari Om ! Shabnam Statistics shows the following!!!

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Dear Sz, Just because one claims to be enlightened and spiritually awake doesn't mean one practices it. But if one DOES, it doesn't mean one is perfect. Everyone lets off steam. This is an opportunity for YOU to be enlightened and let them have the chance. Also an opportunity to understand how it feels to hear "us" when "we" are nationalistic, divisive, superior separatists - and with far less reason. And seldom do "they" rightfully put us in our place. You are free to your reaction, and your posts add wonderful diversity, but being "outta here" is not the path to enlightenment. You have an opportunity for understanding right now. Want to take it? --- szlnscorp wrote: > i expected more from those who claim to be > enlightend and spiritually > awake...reminds me of 7th grade; "my country is > better than yours and my god can > beat up your god" mentality...if what im witnessing > here (from several not > by all) is what Jyotish teaches/offers; thanks but > no thanks... > outta here... > Blessings > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
