It is good if we third world people also could make thories of our own and
promote! Of course Indians can think like other French and German and else.
But they  cannot still promote the knowledge they produced as the English
people do. ..!The diference between 3rd and 1st world..
But whats the meaning in one way, thinking about being Indian and American
and European..Knowledge is knowldge.. and as Osho said, countries are just
the belief made because of the lines in a map! (fortunately on this way Osho
came who is an Indian..!)
