The Contemplative Indian

Something more important than being argumentative right now is to be contemplative. Whilst we managment grads and engineering grads of India are happy about the boom in the economy and thus our fattening pay packages there is a key essential that we are forgetting, it also means a more rapidaly decaying environment and whilst doomsday prophecies abound now maybe the time to start wondering if they are gonna come true and as i believe the human race is far beyond its peak, the question is when is nature going to restabilize.

But the point here is not about joining doomsday cults its purely about what should be our next steps and it seems to me, that soon we shall see re-village-ization of the world, pockets of people trying to isolate themselves from the destructive tendencies of the city life.

Environmental management would also be another area which will become big, people who can purify your sewerage, people who can build systems to help you be self sufficient in drinking water, help you get energy from the surroundings, infact without these consultants revillageization will not take off on a big scale.

I think we people have done too much of shopping, now is the time to sell...and probably stop breeding kids...i know this sounds like a doomsday prophecy but when you realize that even if you agree with me that the environment needs to be saved, you and i will end up destroying much more of it before we stop and then there are over 6 billion people who need to stop and if they do, then they just may not have enough to do in the world...so all in all letz enjoy while we can becoz soon earth is gonna take over from us humans...

psst...here's an analogy...if we dont expect the sensex to boom without a correction...havent we been expecting too much that there will be no correction despite our 6 billion parasitic boom...
