Is it safe to say that China is at least 30 years ahead of India?

The other factor is TIME. This is where the paradox comes in.

Don’t constantly engage in below the navel gazing, if you know what I mean and most of all Don’t Complain; or at least not so much.

Afterall, Whatsapp, FB, mobile smart phones, have all helped us interact as well as avoid pesky and nosy neighbors and relatives.

Can you explain the difference between God and atma according to the Bhagavad-Gita?

Would that be logical? Yes!

That is all that matters really.

What is so magical about 30?

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

High rise in China below:

Malls and Cinema Metroplexes

Well for starters, “Vishwa Parihasa ” must run at a ‘faster’ pace than “Dung Po Pew ”.

Why does a lot of the YouTube community support the MGTOW movement?

The model that prompts such a question is based on a “Circus Maximus” model in which Chariot races were run in ancient Rome, where Individual Nations in this example, are run like Chariots. Some are ahead, while some are behind and we are all spectators here.

Banks

To Indians, Crab Apples are wild apples that are extremely bitter, but are used to make Apple Cider- an alcoholic beverage, much safer to drink, than polluted water, back in the day.

Why doesn't California have the tools, people, means to put out these fires even though they know there will be fires every year?

Zeno of Elea, born c. 495 BC—died c. 430 BC

Space race- Technology in general.

Give yourself an applause here. 👏👏👏

Why do I sweat between my legs all the time, top off my legs, all way down?

So, here is my proposition.

Poka Yoke: Make the design of the systems, so that even “village idiots” (there are many) won’t be able to make things worse in the Eco-system and ruin your experiences.

Let us assume that the Polity called “Dung Poo Pew ” is ahead of the Polity called “Vishwa Parihasa” in some mythical race.

Why do some women alter their faces by so-called cosmetic surgeries (on their eyes, cheeks, lips, chin, jaw) that making them look like Donald Duck or puffy aliens, while for most men these unnatural facial changes are ridiculous or even disgusting?

Coming back to Greek Philosophy this time.

There is no shame, if one wants to repeat the technology, that was developed by the pioneers such as Russia and the US. The guide book and protocols are all there to emulate (Copy).

Now, it is an experience that is just as good or not as good as any Bank Office in the US or China or any where else.

Why do Democrats look like snowflakes and Republicans look like Vikings?

But I thought, I would include it just for kicks and clicks. 😏

So no harm for Indians to “copy” the technology obtained by sweat and tears and expense of billions of dollars or rubles over decades by the big Two.

Also, what does “Ahead” and “Behind” really mean?

Why was the rock band Kiss so successful?

Zeno’s answer: NEVER.😫

Beyond that how logical would it be for one to pick a number based on the number of trips, the Planet Earth makes around the Sun?

Now for some areas of discomfort.

I want to have anal sex, but my wife refuses. What do I do?

Your Corner D-Marts gave me the same “experience” as any that I had in Japan, China or Korea.

And it does not matter, if the technology was invented in Timbuktoo, Africa. Copy Paste, Repeat.

Hippomenes distracting the speedy Atalanta to win the race and also her hand in marriage

Why did my ex replace me so fast?

Give yourselves a round of applause. 👏👏👏

Another Eco System, where you don’t have to apologize. 👏👏👏

These Airports are an Ecosystem, where I’m far more ‘comfortable” and have a more ‘pleasurable experience’ than at La Guardia Airport or JFK Airport in New York $hitty. (misspelled intentionally).

What is your opinion on the band Nickelback? Why do they receive criticism from some people?

So what I’m suggesting is that rather than constantly comparing and tearing one’s clothes in agony, employ what the Japanese call “Nemawashi” and Poka Yoke

Not the distant unheard of thunder from climes and places, thousands of miles away.

And the plummeting birth rate in China and the aversion to marriage in China and even sex, among the young is increasing exponentially, seems to point to that.

Why are Boomers so vehemently opposed to student loan forgiveness?

You were “Waiting for your “Dough”

What is the experience of an ordinary salaried family to living in this bee-hive?

Another Example from Greek Mythology: Hippomenes and Atalanta race. [This is a warning to my country, the USA, really]

What would be the lowest score with 9 strikes and no gutter balls?

It is the same situation, when I learn Newton’s Laws or Calculus. I can freely learn it without breaking much of a sweat. Use some else’s Gyanodayam for literally free.

Hippomenes won the hand in marriage of Atalanta following a running race by distracting her by tossing “golden apples” whenever, he thought, she was gaining on him.

Look instead at Pockets of Comfort created within your immediate environs.

Traffic on Roads. Well, experiences in India. 🙄

Nemawashi: Small incremental improvements, that make your daily experiences better in whatever “Ecosystem”, you have to interact with.

Brevity is the soul of wit, but what can I say… Verbosity is the soul of a Twit. And I admit to being Verbose.

Any Bank in an urban setting, used to be the equivalent of the famous play by Samuel Becket “Waiting for Godot”, except back then in India, decades ago.

Here it is an Eco-system where both Dung and Vishwa seem to be competing for the race to the bottom of the well. 🙄

This paradox argues that Viswa Parihasa, a swifter than Dung runner, can never overtake the slower Dung Poo Pew, who has a head start by the way, because by the time Viswa Parihasa reaches the Dung's starting point, Dung will have moved forward, and Viswa must then catch up to that new position, repeating this process… ad infinitum.

So, if China were at all worried, like Hippomenes, that India would overtake them in this “race” that they are not worried about, then they will like Hippomenes toss some thorny crab apples* to distract the nattering classes in India.

I don’t know. I know that if I were young, my sex drive would plummet, Viagra or not.

ECOSYSTEMS where the citizens experiences need to improve.

Apollo… Yashoda

Again, in any urban setting in India, the Malls are an eco-system as good as any experience in China.

China is a polity; India is a polity. So far so good.

I’ve heard this proverb before: Fools build Houses and Wise Men live in them.

Don’t compare, Don’t Complain.

This so-called race is in my opinion, a Phantasm, that only exists in people’s mind and I would wager that this Phantasm chiefly exists, it seems in India- which is looking at China with a mixture of envy and jealousy.

Any suitor, who wanted to win speedy Atalanta’s hand would have to beat her in a race and if they lose, they would lose their heads.

China did that and still does that too. And I can’t understand complaints by the US and Russians here.

What is it that you folks wants to ‘Catch up” here??? Just asking not telling.

Hospitals

How long would it take for “Vishwa Parihasa ” to catch up with “Dung Po Pew”.

India has a space program that seeks to reap military as well as civilian benefits in this so-called race which there is none.

I will even wager one of my shares in JD. Com ( a Chinese MNC) that most Chinese are not even bothered to see, if India is “lagging” behind them.

Excellent staff from all over India. Amazing competence and professionalism shown by all from Doctors to Nurses to technicians, even the lift staff. 👏👏👏

Housing: When I land in Hyderabad and travel through Cyber City, I feel like I’m in China.

But is this what we want to emulate? I don’t know the answer to that?

D-Marts etc.

Malls and Cineplexes in the US are dying… and descrepit (Thank you Amazon and Netfix) … So experience wise, you folks have it good. 👏👏👏

Thanks for the request Nagarajan Sir. Sorry for the delay, it is tax filing time.

Peace and good luck to all.

There is the Greek Philosopher Zeno’s paradox.

I land at Hyderabad or Bangalore Airports. The airports are spotless, well maintained, orderly and the people follow all the rules, the security is run smoothly like clockwork. The Uber and Taxi System is excellent and smoothly run. So is the Baggage Carousel, Immigration, Customs, etc. etc. WOW!

This begs the question.

Instead of giving GDP numbers, GDP/Capita and all those Statistics to make you feel good or bad, I decided to answer Nagarajan Sir’s question in the form of a long meandering discourse.

Some Examples

Anyone, who looks behind to see who’s on their heel. will befall the same fate as all the suitors of the lovely Atalanta in Greek Mythology, who was the fastest runner in the world.

Many lost their heads, as they looked behind to see if Atalanta was gaining on them . Hippomenes was given a head start by Atalanta.

Never understood what it meant, but now in the winter of my years, I now realize what that means. 😁

I generally don’t place a time scale on who is ahead or who is behind and by how many years in this “Game of Nations”.

Maybe I should Poka Yoke and Nemawashi my writings as well. 😂😂

They, in turn, have eyes only for the Good Ole USA.

Before Desi eyes go somber and tearful, let me explain.

Not true in many other areas of the country. 🙄

Look at each individual Eco-system within your immediate environs, that works in your land, in your local Area and if you are not discomfited, then all is fine. “Experience” is the key here.

Petty Corruption. My mainland Chinese American friends, who travel back and forth to China assure me that petty Corruption is well and alive in China and the ranking by Transparency International, which monitors ‘perception of corruption’ in nations, ranks both India and China about equal. So that seems about right. 🙄

Not many will agree with Zeno, because he is a Mlechha Yavana Barbarian.😂😂after all.

Airports: ECO-SYSTEM.

Viswa Parihasa and Dung Poo Pew Parodox per Zeno

AQI (Air Quality Index) Delhi and Beijing… stinks to high heavens. Equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes/day even for the non-smoker.
