Thanks to my friend, Madan Arora in FL, who forwarded your email exchanges on the state-of-health of UNJSPF, I got your website. It is indeed quite interesting - In fact I want to know more on one of your two passions post retirement -
furthering intellectual enquiry. Thanks to erstwhile British education in India, many here still believe that just acquiring/accumulating "information" = knowledge. Obviously, most children are taught to memorise and vomit for the school/college exams and obtain degrees so you can earn a comfortable salary. Most has no understanding of how to enquire/be creative thinkers/how to go beyond what is already known/... finally understand "who am I? Why I am here? What is life's real purpose? Is it just a play of mind-body-senses complex, or what? et al" Once your enquiry reaches its natural culmination it should blossom as real "intelligence" and help make one's life meaningful.

Muthu,
What you say is completely true. People should learn to learn, thus to think more about the non-technical aspects of life and their contribution to society on earth. You are asbolutely correct in what you say.
