Obsession GDP vs Happiness
by ContraView on Apr 25, 2015 02:00 PM

Our society is becoming transactional because we are 100% obsessed with economic development without paying even 10% attention to happiness. Our social fabric was torn long back in just one generation and we are not even aware of this issue. People are moving in millions to cities leaving their earlier generations in small towns and govts wants to still investment in cities to create more facilities. When large families get divided like this into much smaller nuclear families, we as a society will surely become transactional. Our focus will always be on career, discount shopping, site seeing, 2BHK flats, repaying loans, single child, FB/ WhatsApp, and what not.

Where's the second part of the Interview
by Abhishek Kumar Singh on Apr 24, 2015 01:16 PM

The introductory lines of the interview say it is a "two part interview". Been waiting for the second and concluding part for the last three days. Looks like rediff has decided not to publish the second part since the first one hasn't attracted enough readers and comments. If that is the case, it is really disappointing.

Best of times for compassionate people

The society is sacrificing a lot, just to provide opportunities to a compassionate few to realize themselves. Thanks to all.
