[Reader-list] Corporate Dominance of Every Aspects of Our Lives Is Suffocating Us (By Helaine Olen, in AlterNet. )

[Venugopalan K M]

Dear Rakesh,

I feel the Buddhist 'middle path' has largely been misunderstood for
not engaging with the powers that be; that way, it would even fail to
make sense to many who want  peace and yet look for radical
initiatives toward change
.
Thanks,
Venu.

You cannot build anything on the foundations of caste. You cannot
build up a nation, you cannot build up a morality. Anything that you
will build on the foundations of caste will crack and will never be a
whole.
