There is a deeper relationship between India and America than what is apparent. There is a kind of admiration and spiritual bond between the people in the two countries which inherently share the same ethos. It is a fact that we are the two large working democracies in the world. The people of the two countries share mutual respect and the Indians have a a strong romantic admiration for the great free enterprise that America is. The great American dream and adventure of free thought in all aspects of life is a shared common value in India and Indians admire the people of USA for their free spirit. I suppose there is a deep admiration in the US for the spiritual ethos of India and this will unfold more and more in days to come in a grand common vision. It is the deeper shared values between the people of the two great countries that has kept them together in spite of the exigencies of modern day politics. In spite of all the twists and turns and the lows and highs of the relationship in the political arena between the two, the deeper common shared values never got vitiated during the past half a century of difficult years. Greater glory is yet to unfold.
