Krishna dint say Arjuna become a naked fakir and forget the world. he said live a stylish, good life. His message is even more relevant today, since we are growing and trying to creat jobs for indian, build road etc. Spirituality does not mean, you close your buisness. Thats why i like Osho. he said we should earn inner wealth by meditation and contemplation and outer wealth by doing greate business. becoming good consumer. All rich country has grown following the same mantra. in india we are emotional fool. we get carried away by fake soiclist ideology. and live like naked fakir. no wonder we live worse than an animal life. In west even animals are not carried in train and bus they way human are carried every day in india.

In west animals might not be carried in bus and train like the way humans are carried in India but in western world relationships between humans are more animalistic than in India. People change partners like they change clothes - they do not give respect to elders and parents and love and support to children. How we travel in Buses and Trains is an infrastructural problem which can be solved - but social and physchological problem faced in western world cannot be solved. Thanks.

I differ, look at the changes around you, see the mushrooming of old age homes divorces and all ther inter personal relationships in India. We are definitely changing but towards worse.

I second that, we are also moving towards fulfilling material needs and ignoring elders. The real effect will be seen after couple of decades, when we will see alarming increase of old ppl staying in old age homes, and the children (they might be having only 1 or 2 child) will be busy pursuing their career.
