I had a English education. I stayed in a cosmopolitan place. I grew up as a secular person. I then started reading history, participating in internet discussions. I realized much of the history I knew was not correct. Now I am not sure one can ever know true history as history is history.
Any way I always believed and believe now also that Hindu society had not treated many of its own people properly but I also became aware of Islamic history of India. I saw Islamic terrorism as the continuation of oppression on Hindus for the last 1000 years.It made me communal and I was always there to defend the Hindu way of life. I was more of an anti-Muslim than an Hindu. I wrote strongly against Islam and Muslims in internet discussion. I was drawn to the RSS ideology and believed that an eye for an eye was required to fight Islamic terrorism.
As time went by and with more experiences I realized that we are all trapped in the times we live in. All societies go through the communal and liberal cycle.
The best societies are the ones which are liberal. Liberalism is what liberates all of us. Liberalism leads to modernism. Liberalism leads to happiness.
To be a liberal is tough and to be a communal is easy. The struggle between a liberal and a communal still goes on. I hope the liberal wins my heart.

Future Bet
I think the future is going to be of multiple mobile devices in which Mobile phone would be one. We will be having many devices apart from Mobile and PC.
Investing in these technologies will reap benefit.
If one looks at many of our small SME business operations they do require a information storage and analysis device. A PC becomes overkill and a mobile may be too small device.
A netbook kind of device running on Android kind of OS and having the capabilities of PC and Mobile can do the trick.
Will this work ?

Government Intervention VS Free Market
In these tough economic times the debate over Government intervention VS Free market continues. For me living in India I see every activity where Government participates is a recipe for disaster. Are there then perfect Markets ?
I do not know the answer but I think free market is the best solution to harness the power of individuals.

Posting Via Mail
Checking how posting with mail will work.
Will be used from office where every thing is stupidly blocked for reasons best known to my organization.

Back to Blogging
I am back to blogging. I have never done this before punctually. I hope to do this time. Why do I want to blog now ?
I hope to write what I observe around me so that in future I can see the trends in my thinking.
I think the key is to write punctually and write short.
