ROTE/INNOVATN

"Karmanye Wadhika Raste Ma Phaleshu Kadachan".So any
service oriented task or any task which involves application in a
predetermined way requiring a lot of patience and determination, Indians
will excel at it. You can find traces of it in Dhoni's speech after a
cricket match. "I want the boys to go there and play to the best of their
ability and have fun.I don't care if they win or lose." You can find
reflection of this in the fact that Indian software companies are good at
routine service oriented tasks.
That also means that India does not see many innovations. I remember Sabeer
Bhatia talking about the differrences between Indian and Western education
system.

//////////////////........The white Tiger", I laughed a lot about the innocence, stupidity and unexploited uninhibited exploration of terrains unknown. I think the youngsters who left India at a younger age to study or live abroad have not lived with the poverty and the system that
in someway manages itself even with such adversities, for them it is sort of an awakening to the rude reality, it is refreshing that someone looks at this "system" from outside and shows a degree of sensitivity and I appreciate the young writers in doing so.


/////////////////.......Balzac is a different story. Again, Adiga has nothing in common with Balzac
in the style and the grasp of the subject matter. Balzac is regarded as one
of the founders of realism in European literature. So-called progressive
writers in India are fond of comparing themselves with great realistic
writers like Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Gorky, Dickens, Flaubert, Balzac etc as
they think that Indian society is in an eternal need of a Bolshevik style
revolution. Taking realism as the most abject form of self-denigration,
Indian writers harp on the "social injustices" of India and feel themselves
to be in the proud company of great writers.



////////////////////..........In 1994 Christian missionary, father Augustine Kanjamala of Pune wrote an
article in Deccan Chronicle titled, "Replies to Arun Shourie". In the
article he wrote, "Harijans worship deities of lower rank, while caste
Hindus worship deities of higher rank. For instance, Hanuman is worshipped
by Harijans and Rama is worshipped by upper caste in the same village....
Hanuman was the servant of Rama; Harijans are servants of higher caste
Hindus. A close affinity between their hierarchy of gods and the hierarchy
of society."21



//////////////////........Most importantly the leftists have infiltrated all the literary, arts and
fine arts institutions in India. Thus pro-communist All India Progressive
Writers" Association (AIPWA) was formed in which eminent people like Mulk
Raj Anand, Munshi Premchand, Sarojini Naidu, Kirshan Chander, KA Abbas,
Shivdan Singh Chauhan, Ramananda Chatterjee and Ram Bilas Sharma
participated. 26 In the field of theater too, the influence of the leftists
was predominant. The Indian People"s Theater Association (IPTA) is still
very influential in India and continues to shape the world-view of the
youth.27
