I am not an expert on hindu scriptures. I have cited the source, which I was quoting. There are myths about Ganesha being involve in writing first copy of Mahabharata but still he is not mentioning within it. Hindu thought didn't emerge from single place, person, and time. It is a result of thousands of years of work of a civilization. In India, there has been great process of reconciling all the differences by reconceptualizing religious beliefs. The culture(religion) we have got is the result of this historical process. The interpretation of Hinduism you are supplying is one of the great synthesis of our culture. I am not challenging the greatness of this idea but the surrounding myths. For example, purana about Ganesha has no more value than Harry Potter. There are some Hindu scriptures filled with wisdom. Why dont we simply restrict ourselves to those books??? Regards, Ashutosh Hello Ashutosh Srivastav,

This is what i think! Ashutosh Srivastava Dear Mr. Ashutosh,

i found your blog in google while making search for my name. its really nice to see that you are keen to know about the real facts, this i noticed when i read your comments about ganesha. the fact that ganesha is not mentioned in ramayana or the mahabharat was never noticed by me though i have heard the story of ganesh utpatti from my elders.

no doubt there are several god and godess in hindu religion but recently i saw a very popular picture of ‘virat swaroop” of Sri Krishna in cover page of a very well know book ” akhand jyoti” (hope u know about it) there one can see how only one god exists and all others are various parts of it. this picture alone discribes whole thought of hindu religion about existence GOD and various other God n Godess. This is what i think!

He says things very conditional. He is not praising Mayawati but the democratic system which can allow such women to get elected. My comment was that Mayawati is the best example he can find who is so corrupt. It is kind of irony Hello Prabin,

]]> Comment on Call centers in India by Ashutosh GUPTA http://doiknow.wordpress.com/2007/01/09/call-centers-in-india/#comment-282 Ashutosh GUPTA Wed, 15 Oct 2008 18:25:12 +0000 http://doiknow.wordpress.com/2007/01/09/call-centers-in-india/#comment-282 I think that it is great that india has tapped this opportunity of software outsourcing. Many only point is that service can't be basis of a large country in long run. Now, India should be hub for producing new technology and technological independence. Still, We don't have great research institutes. We still don't built serious design work in software. Most of the work is maintaining and adding new features. So, called "supply and demand" doesn't solve all the problem. If there is a demand we should not always rush to supply our man power. Sometimes, We need to think for a while is the suppling that man power going to help the society in general. For example, there is a demand for a prostitute then one can't become a prostitute just because there is a demand and it will generate easy money. I am worried that if college student starts doing Call center jobs then they will screw up their studies and quality of education will go down further. In result, less and less well skilled people.
