EXPLAINIG THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT (MODELS) etc is good only if we have the capacity to appreciate our(Global)past (analysed with an open scientific quest that is near Divinity) and then relating it with the present and then visualising the future. Don’t mistake that a (correct and honest)VIEW OF THE PAST is a wasteful exercise -THEY ARE ALL LINKED together and the best of future society model is possible if only we all join as a member of a (GLOBAL) family ! For that you need to know how to connect well (bond !).So happy bonding with a love that is Divinised !

DEVELOPMENT (MODELS)-THEN, NOW AND FUTUREBy ESWARA CHANDRAMOULI (a retired IT savvy management professional)

A simili from Tattvaloka -- issue dated November 2010

Compare life’s critical transactions to the automobile driver .While the cars front view ie thro the windshield glass is like seeing our future (transactions),the rear mirror is like the past (views) and the driver is " all of us" driving (steering the car ) representing the present. So looking at the past is to be done that way like the way one drives a car – and when it is good and useful to see the rear view mirror – is decided only by a good driver !

Identify countries that had developed sea links through their identifiablesimilarities of ancient civilisation cultures ? Statistical techniques like Regression analysis may be tried to http://www.valuebasedmanagement.net/methods_regression_analysis.html to establish a rleation ship or similarities between diiferent civilisation cultures. In statistics, correlation and dependence are any of a broad class of statistical relationships between two or more random variables or observed data values.Familiar examples of dependent phenomena include the correlation between the physical statures of parents and their offspring, and the correlation between the demand for a product and its price. Correlations are useful because they can indicate a predictive relationship that can be exploited in practice.

Though we usually treat the oceans as four separate entities, they are actually interconnected. This can be seen most easily by looking at a map of the world as seen from the South Pole. From this view it is clear that the Pacific, the Atlantic and Indian oceans are large branches of one vast ocean system. The connections among the major basins allow seawater, materials, and some organisms to move from one "ocean" to another. Because the "oceans" are actually one great interconnected system, oceanographers often speak of a single world ocean. They also refer to the continuous body of water that surrounds Antarctic as the Southern Ocean.

South Africa's Cape coast attracts thousands of local and international tourists each year to witness the Indian and Atlantic oceans splashing together - The confluence of the two oceans.

Ocean interconnect Vs Possibility of Migration of Ancient civilisation taking the ocean route

The Pacific Ocean meets the Atlantic south of South America at Cape Horn,Chile. In reality, the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans only exist as separate oceans because it is only an imaginary line of seperation

Indian ocean countries

The Indian Ocean is the third largest of the world's oceanic divisions, It is bounded on the north by the Indian subcontinent; on the west by East Africa; on the east by Indochina, the Sunda Islands, and Australia; and on the south by the Southern Ocean (or, depending on definition, by Antarctica). It is the only ocean to be named after a country, i.e., IndiaAs one component of the interconnected global ocean, the Indian Ocean is delineated from the Atlantic Ocean by the 20° east meridian running south from Cape Agulhas, and from the Pacific by the meridian of 146°55' east[5]. The northernmost extent of the Indian Ocean is approximately 30° north in the Persian Gulf. The Indian Ocean has asymmetric ocean circulation[citation needed].

The sudden collapse of the ancient peruvian civilisation, or theFirst South American Civilisation etc might have been by calamities like Earthquake,epidemics etc. We cant also rule out their decimation thro aggressive occupation by invading/aggressive migrating communites etc.Refer boOk by the author Hugh Thomson “THE WHITE ROCK “.The aggressive Spaniards virtually elimiatd the Inca tribes of ancient Peru.

Archaeologists excavating at the ancient Peruvian coastal civilization called Caral have recovered an artifact which may represent one of the earliest forms of communication in the world, roughly equivalent in age to the cuneiform of Mesopotamia.

History of The Incas

http://www.peru-travel-confidential.com/history-of-the-incas.html

The history of the incas is way more complex of what the people believe, even today with the power of the internet, only very few people have a blur understating of what the inca empire was; In this page you will find all that you need to know about the incas. The inca civilization has barely 1000 years of history, since the point of birth as a simple tribe in the heart of the Andes, to the magnificent inca empire that we know today.

Here you will find interesting aspects of the history of the incas, like the inca religion, that had approximate 6000 priest distributed all over the kingdom, where the Huillac Uma or supreme priest was the equivalent of the pope of our days.

The model of the inca culture was clear and simple, it was a free of hunger society, with peace among the people and where the Hatunruna or standard citizen, knew that him and his family were protected of natural disasters.

The inca people was part of a estrange mixture of socialism, imperialism and generalize brain wash, that is quite difficult to catalog, because they reach only the copper as the stronger metal, so they should be qualify as a copper age civilization.

For snaps of Machu Pichu and other Peru’s ancient sites see next slide

Many archaeologist and investigators have underestimated the complexity of the incas culture; The true is that they develop medicine remedies and treatments, art styles, magnificent pottery, technology in many fields, weapons development, complex metallurgy processes, war strategy, amazing architecture and much more. The inca art expression goes from music, textile, carving wood, carving stone, metallurgy art and even poetry; The inca people did not have writing, so the poetry was pass from father to son in shape of tales and verbal traditions.

The inca pottery was simple and functional, the incas produce two kind of ceramics, the ceremony style and the massive production ceramics, they were in limited shapes and with a very simple geometrical decorations with stylized images of animals and day by day activities.

The inca technology had a great understanding of mathematics, agriculture, advance development of crops, medicine, hydraulics, astronomy, architecture and military strategy.

What is the study of ancient civilization called?

What ever it is including the name may be archeology/PAST exploration etc, all I would like to say is that thanks to (Google search inclusive) and technology of today, in matter of an hour I could contruct these slides keeping my system in an online mode. Todays technology is evolving and in innovative ways the advancement of society is going to take place is my vision for the future.

Knowledge society will expand and will play its very useful role in reaching/practicing/guiding ,the ultimate forms of Governance etc.Like the industrial revolution,information technolgy revolutions etc of the past we will witness revolutionary modls of Governance aided by TECHNOLY.So remain positive is the message and may we all remain blessed for a contribution to such excellence in Governance.

Exploring the World OF(ANCIENT)CHINA

National Palace Museum, Taipei Kublai Khan as the First Yuan EmperorFor some three decades until his death in 1294, the grandson of the famed Mongol warlord Chingiz, or Genghis, ruled over much of what is today China. Kublai Khan spent most of his reign expanding his domain and vanquishing pretenders to his throne — in the process, historians say, he laid the foundations of the modern Chinese state. The empire of his Yuan dynasty was said to be a continent unto itself, its cities teeming with gold and the chatter of people from countless lands. The myth of his power was irrepressible. Once, while at the sidelines of a battle the emperor was sure to win, the voyaging Italian merchant Marco Polo saw "the Kaan" on a hill, surveying his massed legions from a perch atop a wooden tower. The tower was mounted on the backs of "four well-trained elephants.“From TIMEhttp://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,2027165_2202911,00.html#ixzz148bmD1SF

Shanxi Museum Model of a Stage with Five ActorsThe Mongols are often characterized by the savagery of their warfare, but the Yuan era saw the refinement and crystallization of a number of Chinese artistic traditions that all linger to this day. This is especially true for theater — represented by this 13th century ceramic display. Over nine hundred plays were produced during the Yuan period, and its tales of fairy spirits and corrupt officials still circulate in current productions of Peking opera.Read more: http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,2027165_2202921,00.html#ixzz148dSEnu3

Mahakala of the TentThe Yuan dynasty oversaw a revival of Buddhism in China, which had lapsed in preceding centuries. They practiced, by and large, a more esoteric, Tibetan strain of Buddhism, replete with terrifying spirits and protective deities. The Mahakala of the Tent was of particular importance to the Yuan and this small stone totem was likely carried to war as a helmet of a soldier. http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,2027165_2202927,00.html#ixzz148i8Enqz

Architectural Relief Depicting the Hindu Legend of Gajaranya KshetraKublai's kingdom was not only about the Silk Road over land. Ports flourished, with diverse communities of merchants settling in a number of southern Chinese cities. This stone relief of an elephant came from Quanzhou, in today's Fujian province, and likely belonged to a Hindu temple set up by Tamil traders.

Samudra Manthan - At Thailand Airport In Bangkok, Thailand, there is new international airport called Suvarn-bhoomi. Very interesting to know that country surrounded by other major religion has such a huge display from the scripture of Devi Bhagavat and Vishnu Puran.As is well known - majority of the population in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia etc., etc., are not Hindus - but they have the culture of respecting their forefathers who were Hindus - and also the Hindu Sanatan Dharma which is unique and has no comparison.

THAILAND RESPECTS DIFFERENT CULTURES OF THEIR PAST

The Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) was a Bronze Age civilization (3300–1300 BCE; mature period 2600–1900 BCE) which was centred mostly in the western part[1] of theIndian Subcontinent[2][3] and which flourished around theIndus River basin.[n 1] Primarily centered along the Indusand the Punjab region, the civilization extended into theGhaggar-Hakra River valley[7] and the Ganges-Yamuna Doab,[8][9] encompassing most of what is now Pakistan, as well as extending into the westernmost states of modern-dayIndia, southeastern Afghanistan, and the easternmost part of Balochistan, Iran.The mature phase of this civilization is known as the Harappan Civilization, as the first of its cities to be unearthed was the one at Harappa, excavated in the 1920s in what was at the time the Punjab province of British India (now in Pakistan).[10] Excavation of IVC sites have been ongoing since 1920, with important breakthroughs occurring as recently as 1999.[11] Mohenjo-Daro, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is another well-known archeological site.The Harappan language is not directly attested and its affiliation is unknown,though Proto-Dravidian, Elamo-Dravidian, or (Para-)Munda relations have been posited by scholars such as Iravatham Mahadevan,Asko Parpola, F.B.J. Kuiper,and Michael Witzel. Essentially a city culture, Harappan life was supported by extensive agricultural production,commerce and trade. By around 2000 BC, though, the Harappan civilization had collapsed and what caused it is not decipherable.

We have a CEG 65 yahoo Group site for our college (1965) batchmates of Guindy Engineering College( it is an Educational institution,more than 100 years Old ) and is in Chennai,India. Most of them held positions(in management)and few people like us held (present day IT,computers.communications etc fields) that are technology related positions.At that time only in our college a new division called Electronics and telecommunications was introduced in our college.(About four decades back). We are now in our mid sixties and some of us have still not lost the sense of humour. They have the knack of changing the nature of topics thro humour! So it helps to mix fun in order that we enjoy creativity in a right spirit.When we discuss the Buddhism ways of wheel of life, one guy will post a mail calling it as Newage wheel of life. See below ! And also see the never ending curiousity exhibited by the peeping child at stage 1 and the (oldie!) child at the end/last stage !

So creativity is to be viewed with a right spirit and it should not to be feared !

oName of Upanishad

Core Message Equivalent Mgmt message for today

1 Isavasya Upanishad

Reality as Brahman pervades over everything (as matter, and living being). Divinity appearing to be so small is also in you as well as spread over the entire universe as existance bliss, and is known as cosmic consciousness. When the mind is in a less advanced state of development, it is difficult to get this perception and hence this Upanishad dwells on the relationship between the self or Atman and the Divine.

In Organisations, for success there is a need for the feeling of oneness belonging to the Organisation, at all levels of management and the work force ( inspite of the hierarchies).Like everyone has the potential to become a Chairman or President in an Organisation and should strive for it, but have also accepted their respective position, with the right frame of mind, and are happy on account of that. But aiming for the Goal and striving for excellence is always there.

2 Kena Upanishad

To facilitate the right perception about the Brahman, the mind has to be conditioned from its lower influences of the body and mind (Known as Thamasic and Rajasic state) and Taken to a Higher consciousness thro the . (Note that this state is also not free from attachments due to the influence of the Worldly activities).

When decisions are taken with the right frame of mind, known in Transaction Analysis as Adult state of mind , a manager is bound to succeed. Please also note that decisions taken in a party or dinner or in Golf courts are not necessarily the best as the mind is in a Thamasic state and is not capable of taking qualitative decisions,as that requires Rajasisc or Satwic state of mind. It is in the satwic state of mind that the emotions are under check (or in full control) and it is here, ones mind is focussed to achieve the objectives (or Goals ).It is also scientifically proven that the decisions are more qualitiative in the alpha state of mind (where one entertains least nor of transactions in the mind!).

Katha Upanishad

This Upanishad discusses about death and the state of mind at the time of death and what happens after death.and the cycle of birth and death. Entire details are framed as a discussion between a human disciple ( Naciketa ) and Yama the Lord of death. Naciketa did not approve of his fathers ritualistic practices (of giving away old cattles as gift etc), and as a result of his questioning his father, he incurrs the wrath of his father,who feeling angry and unable to give proper explanation, asks his son, to meet Yama for an explanation regarding death.
