My opinion on how society evolved in Ancient India.

In Ancient times, society was relatively simple in its functioning. As time progressed, society changed along with the needs of itself. In ancient times
the society basically depended on its functioning more than it does so now,
whereas now, society gives more emphasis on the individual.
During the times of Ancient India, Society, and the people of society were interdependent on one another. NO ONE SECTION OF SOCIETY WAS ALL POWERFUL.
Perhaps, a person thought the other to be more responsible. When 'The Bed'
became too small for everyone, or when society was not assertive enough to
assimilate new people, problems arose. The theory of interdependence, worked
well, because one relied on society, and did not over emphasize the importance
of the individual or of society. In short, Indian society, trusted itself
more.

The Current India England Cricket Test Series.

I believe, that India has a great test side. However, if Piyush Chawla can bowl with Harbhajan Singh, or Anil Kumble, it will be a treat for all who watch them. In India, they should bowl as a threesome, in tests, against the opposing test teams. That VVS Laxman is back in the test side, is a good omen for India. Rahul Dravid, Saurav Ganguly, and Sachin Tendulkar, must do what they are the best at, which is, intimidate the opposition. Sreesanth is a great talent, which is a God given gift to him. He must live up to the 'hype'. Zaheer Khan did not bowl as well as he did, in the last test, for some time. R P singh, is very 'McGrath like' in his bowling. He must temper his approach with consistency.
The England Team, is also very commendable, for the talent it possesses. The plus points in their bowling is Monty Panesar, and the pacemen who can swing the ball, like Ryan Sidebottom. Michael Vaughan, is among the best batting talent in the world. He possesses the flair of a David Gower, and the solidity of a Graham Gooch, not to an extent which is overbearing, but to an extent which just has the right effect. The other batsmen must do their bit for the teams cause. I feel that the last test match will be an engrossing encounter, between two equal teams, though I might add that I feel India has the upper hand.
Not a long time ago, from now, I saw Dinesh Kaarthik execute an exquisite on drive, which for some reason, brought to mind Mr Sunil Gavaskar.

World Cooperation.

 The world has a lot to offer, and contribute, to itself. In fact, it is doing so all the time. However, because of the outlook towards the contribution, by the contributors, especially, and the contributed, the contribution appears unnatural, and the world cannot come to terms with the offer, nor the acceptance. The main cause of the unnatural contribution, is the dilemma in the world. Distribution of wealth, should be a harbinger of peace, and prosperity, not a means to survival. This is because, the entities who generate wealth, but naturally, want to make the world better. In my view, it is peace, which leads to prosperity, not happiness. Happiness is a consequence of peace. Perhaps, the wealth generating community should come
 to an understanding amongst themselves, and be more assured and secure in themselves,
so that the offer and acceptance, of the world, toward itself, is more acceptable.
