The world will not have skyscrapers if it was founded and run on the principles of Buddha
You and i cannot post on the internet if all of us would have sat behind the forests and meditated of inner peace. We would have not advanced this far if we concentrated on the only desire to limit the same...We would have been marred in innumerable crosses if we wnet by jesus and ofcourse gandhi was shot for his shortcomings...and so was Martin Luther King!
Who proposes this morality of self-containment and satisfaction and who follows it.
The best improvement of the society can only come when the induvidual recognises the need for it and does not wait for communism, democracy to take the reigns and lead him to better life, nobody can do the best for you than yourselves, one man's faults can be the perfect action for the others, the hour has arisen to recognise the induvidual and the the induvidual has to recognise himself as the highest important being and NOT HIS DESIRES, by this i mean his sole strength must not be towards temporal gains and fleeting prestige but to make a epitome perfection of model himself and worship the same, in short your ambition must be your GOD and you must work towards it, this will negate the ill attitudes too, the upliftment or the instant destruction of the induidual will directly depend on his ideas and therefore he cannot blame anybody, he cannot say reservations, he cannot say caste, this might be utopia??? and you thought to be selfish is easy? ah!...
GREED cannot have a negative connotation if you have the ability and will to work towards the greed to make it a reality...

Nicely put, but then mediataing in forests might have solved the high rates of sucide today!
Who knows it might even have solved india's population crisis!

the geetha talks about karma as sacrifice...work for the cause of humanity ...not that humanity matters more .....
Arjuna was not asked to retire to the forests ..he was asked to fight..
fight as it was his duty as a prince ...
true internet et all would not have been possible but for desire...
but internet would not have been possible but for fire,agriculture the wheel,languages and mathematics....
It was not spirituality that prevented the lack of development in the east...it was on the other hand spiritual decadence..
the west caught on since it experienced untold hardships which eventually lead man to a life of purpose..that is the essence of true eastern philosophy..that is what lead to the internet.. :)

//I simply want one question put, why should i take it to be right or rather why have you taken it right, simply because something is said in Gita?//
No you need not take it to be right.

Shibu., "indians" alone did not find and discover all those.
What about greeks and romans, thes sure did not embrace buddha?
I never said anything about "indians". I just wanted to drive home the fact that science is an evolution that occurs due to neccesities conditons and cause-effect on the human mind.

Then look around you, we neither have the spirituality now nor the aforementioned things?
What use is of spirituality when you do not have food to eat and roof to be under and stay healthy physically?
exactly if u do not have the so called "spirituality" u wont have the aforementioned things.

No, west never lead anyone to any purpose. Please do read on from Thomas Beckett, Albert Camus who defined existentialism saying: 'the purpose of life is its purposelessness'
The self vanity of man makes him to think that he is destined to a divine purpose.
Thomas Beckett, Albert Camus did not invent internet. Just take edison, he will be a better example. :) And why should you take it to be right or rather why have you taken it right, simply because something is said by Thomas Beckett, Albert Camus. :)
When we know that it we who lift our feet and walk then why do we need the story of blue elves secretly marching us along on the road?
What lead to the internet was in 1960, american military department found how things worked. There was nothing 'spiritual' about it.
Neither does internet porn ;)
I have no idea where internet porn comes into the discussion.
