Indian (Eastern) Culture cares for all seven levels whereas Western Culture apparently doesn't, may be due to overwhelming contribution of science & Technology in Social life.<br /><br />Due to globalisation, India also can't escape the social trends which have effected Western Civilisation under the influence of Islam & Christianity which have cultivated "Herd" mentality with out healthy Discussion.JagrutNagarikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07388376829973376331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9212147925907063127.post-90748101941348677782014-11-13T04:45:30.235-08:002014-11-13T04:45:30.235-08:00Well written Satto.

In fact, not just the judiciary, but all the 3 pillars - judiciary, executive and legislature - if, acting without a monopolistic bias will work well in favour of the values like liberty of individuals and the system. And I feel in the coming times, we have a 4th pillar growing - that is the voice of the public or the junta. Social media is the weapons in their hands. It needs to be seen how this 4th pillar keeps a check on the other 3 and how the other 3 pillars react and change in the presence of this new power.

They are still separate concepts but one (value to receiver) is used to argue for the existence of other (cost to the smiler).<br />And to an extent both are inter-related; money has value precisely because it costs effort to earn it. If it were free available, it wouldn't have any value. :)Sachin Tyagihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11976610595568112636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9212147925907063127.post-14215068497217247602011-09-07T23:39:53.551-07:002011-09-07T23:39:53.551-07:00Intelligent post but have you used value and cost ...Intelligent post but have you used value and cost inter-changeably?
