I am sure many of you might have already addressed this in the previous comments-which I haven't read so I am going to reiterate again about the ignotance of the writer. Meenakshi Radhakrishnan-Swami mentions in the first line that a few centuries ago Indians were rich, had bundant food and no worries. I can't believe an Indian would write that. Meenakshi, this is common knowledge that only the kings' household had all the money while the others were there to serve him and his lands. Haven't we all seen countless stories on those subjects on TV? Although this is irrelevant, but I have seen this kind of ignorance only in non-asian(READ:America) countries where people have asked me stupid questions like" are there stray cows on the street" "do kids stay with their parents after getting married" For god's sake YES!!! what kind of hole do these people live in?
