Venki:
An excellent article, and thanks for the link. But, sorry friend, not having enough time to discuss it further here.

I do, however, see a subtle link between the Article and your thread, in the sense, as Tamils do we even know what our worldview has been, to lament its demise at the hands of neocolonialism ? Yes, there can be no civlization without an underlying emotion that supports its sustenance. In a modest way, I have started making some amends, in the pesonal views and choices I now make. That's all I have to say, and yes the demise is lamentable, and let me equip to be a qualified person to lament. That can be my little contribution.
