Dear All,
Image is a relative term, one out of many derivatives of culture, as perceived by one at a given moment of time. Hence positive or negative perception (image) as perceived by one is subjective, rather relative and not absolute. Obviously, such image perception does not represent the true culture (or nature) of a community. Let us have a balanced perception, focus more on positive (bright side of ) image.
My thanks to both Professor Stephen and Professor Kuldeep for their lively discussion..

Well said, Dr. Steven. In a nutshell, it is about the survival of the fittest. Most often, the chances favor the prepared mind. I must say that the images of Israelis in this forum are pretty positive. But in some quarters in New York, they also have a very negative image. I remember people saying that a Jew will pick up a penny from shit using his lips without smelling anything? In some quarters in America, we have the same derogatory or negative image of Marwari's and Gujarati's. In a nutshell, images are what they are? In some quarters Jews and Japanese are seen smart, and in others, they have a very different image. I remember a time when the Shahs and Patel's from Gujarat were restricted entry in the USA because they were engaged in every illegal activity to bring their family members to America. They were unofficially blacklisted. So there you have it. According to many astute academics, the business intelligence of Jews, Gujarati, Marwari or any other group has lots of elements of deceit. Should we call it talent? In some quarters, same is the image of Sindhis? In the end, every group, or for that matter, an ethnic group does have its historical footprints, positive or negative, for the right or wrong reasons. In my opinion, ethnicity has very little to do talent? Anybody can be talented, including a horse.

NEW OLD WORLD How Indian families took over the Antwerp diamond trade from orthodox Jews |
Dear All,Some of the Hindu organization volunteers started to teach parents about 'how to get good offspring's through some ancient techniques. I am not aware of details. I read some time back that Garbhopanishad, Brihadaaryaka Upanishad (Mantras as well as sexual intercourse methods!) and Ayurveda talks about begetting good offspring.Regards,Prof. Vijendra Kumar S.K.Assistant Professor & Counseling Psychologist,Centre for Counseling and Career Guidance,PES University, Bengaluru.

Thanks Prof. kumarji.
Abhimanu's case is well known to all Hindus and it is being recited generation to generation but its moral/ scientific and plan-full observance is rarely done. Other notable examples are Shivaji, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Swami Vivekananda, Saint Dnyaneswar, Ishvarchandra Vidyasagar, Ramkrishna Paramhansa, and many more. In some castes till today many similar rituals are observed but neglected or casually performed under the disguise of modernity.

I borrow the words: Nurturing fetus from honorable Dr. P.H.Wagodhekarji's comment. In Mahabharata one reference comes. One night Arjuna was telling to her wife "How to enter Chakravihu?"
But he could complete half the story stating only "how to enter the Chakravihu" and his wife slept soundly. She could not hear rest of the story that stated "how to come out of Chakravihu" . And it is believed that had the wife listened to the whole of the story, Arjuna's son Abhimanyu would have not been killed in the Chakravihu created by Kaurvas.
So, what the mother listens,sees, eats and under which environment she lives definitely impacts the mental make up of the child. It is the belief in various cultures throughout world. Yes, anecdotes may be different suiting to the culture.

I THINK WE SHOULD NOT IGNORE THE ENVIRONMENT THAT NURTURES THE TALENT. THE STUDENTS WHO GOES TO AMERICA AND DOES WELL WILL CERTAINLY STRUGGLE OR FAIL IN INDIA. THE REASONS ARE OBVIOUS. IT HAS LESS TO DO WITH THEIR ROOTS OR CULTURE AND MORE TO DO WITH OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES A SOCIETY PROVIDES. AMERICA IS WORK CULTURE. IT IS A PLACE WHERE WORKING HARD ALWAYS LEAD TO BETTER OUTCOMES.
WHILE I WAS WORKING IN AMERICA I ALSO HEARD THAT JAPANESE WERE SMART. INDIANS WERE STEREOTYPED AS TASK MASTERS, NOT REALLY TALENTED. NOW WE KNOW IT, IT IS NOT TRUE. SMART PEOPLE ARE FOUND IN EVERY NOOK AND CORNER OF THIS PLANET.

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] WHY ARE JEWS SO SMART?The analysis done is scientific and carries many invaluable suggestions how to create next generations smart. My take is:
- Nurturing fetus.
- Inculcating good eating habits and brain training till the early age of 6 to 9 years.
- Nurturing the mundane life on the foundation of (2) above.
Great experiments were carried out by Indian ancient sages on how to beget the next generation bright and smart. Among many like training the foetus, giving gold water to just born baby, upanayan, etc., Varna Sankar prevention was one of them. Even today, in villages some approaches do exist but in diluted form mostly based on traditions losing scientific approach. We know those who eat fish and rice are brilliant people like Bengali or Konkani, consumption of dry fruits like almond, ac-rode, cashew nuts, etc., butter milk, vegetable diet, taking food before sun set, etc.
Under the name of modernity, we have abandoned all these. I wonder why Indian students do miracle in foreign countries, regarded as bright students? The root lies in their culture.
Let us revisit our life style.

Since the turn of the century (i.e., since the year 2000), Jews have been awarded 25% of allNobel Prizes and 27% of those in the scientific research fields. (Jews currently make up approximately0.2%of the world's population and 2% of the US population.)
Since I spent about 3 years in Israel for internship in a few hospitals there, it came to my mind aboutdoing research on "Why the Jews are Intelligent."
It goes without denial that Jews are ahead in all aspects of life such as engineering, music, science andmost obviously in business - nearly 70% of world trade/business are held by the Jews - in cosmetics,food, fashion, arms, hotels and film industries (Hollywood etc).
During my 2nd year, I was about to go back to California. This idea came to me and I was wondering whyGod gave this gift/ability to them? Is this a coincidence? Or is it man-made? Can intelligent Jews be producedlike goods from a factory? My research took about 8 yrs to gather all the information as accurately as possible,like their food intake, culture, religion, initial preparation of pregnancy, etc and I would compare them with other races.
Let's start with initial preparation of pregnancy. In Israel, the first thing I noticed is that a pregnant mother wouldalways sing n play the piano n wld always try to solve mathematical problems together with her husband. I was verysurprised to see the pregnant women always carry math books. Sometimes I would help her to solve some problems.I would ask, "Is this for your child in the womb?" She would answer, "Yes to train the child still in the womb so that itwould be a genius later on". She would solve maths problems without let-up until the child is born.
Another thing I noticed is about their food. The pregnant women loved to eat almonds and dates with milk. For lunchshe would take bread and fish (without the head), salad mixed with almonds and other nuts. They believe fish is goodfor the development of the brain and that fish head is bad for the brain. And also it is in the culture of the Jews forpregnant mothers to take cod liver oil.
When I was invited for dinner, I noticed that they always like to eat fish (flesh and fillet) and no meat. According to theirbelief, meat and fish together will not give any benefit to our body. Salad and nuts is a must, especially almonds.
They would always eat fruits first before the main meal. Their belief is that if you eat the main meal first (like bread or rice)& then fruits, this will make us feel sleepy and difficult to understand lessons in school.
In Israel, smoking is a taboo. If you are a guest, don't smoke in their house, they would politely ask you to go out to smoke.According to scientists in Univrsities in Israel, nicotine would destroy cells in our brain and will affect the genes and DNA,resulting in generations of moron or defective brain. All smokers please take note (Ironically, the biggest producer of cigarettesis… you know who...).
The food intake for the child is always under the guidance of the parents. First, the fruits with almonds, followed by cod liver oil.In my assessment, most Jewish children know at least 3 languages i.e. Hebrew, Arabic and English. Since childhood they wouldbe trained in playing the piano and violin - it is a must.
They believe that this practice will increase the IQ of the child and will make him a genius. According to Jewish scientists, the vibrationof the music would stimulate the brain. That is why there are lots of geniuses among the Jews.
Since grade 1 to 6, they would be taught business mathematics. Science subjects would be their first preference. As comparison, Icould see the IQ of children in California is about 6 years back. Jewish children are also involved in athletics such as archery, shootingand running. They believe that archery and shooting would make the brain more focused on decision-making and precision.In high school, students are more inclined to study science. They would create products; indulge in all sorts of projects (although somelook very funny or useless). But all attention is given seriously - especially if it is on armaments, medicine or engineering. A successfulproject or idea would be introduced in higher institutes, polytechnics or universities.
The Business faculty is given more preference in the last year of university. Students in business would be given a project and they canonly pass if their group (about 10 in a group) can make a profit of USD1 million!
Don't be surprised - this is the reality. And that is why half of the business in the world is held by the Jews e.g. who designed the latest Levis?It is being designed in an Israel university by the Faculty of Business and Fashion!
Have you seen how they pray? They always shake their heads - they believe this action will stimulate and provide more oxygen to the brain(same thing with Islam where you need to bow down your head).
Look at the Japanese, they always bow down their heads as their culture - lots of them are smart - they love sushi (fresh fish). Is this a coincidence?
In the USA, the commercial/trading centers for the Jews are based in New York - catering only for the Jews. If any Jew has any beneficial idea,their committee will give free interest loans and will make sure the business prosper. Thus Jewish companies like Starbucks, Dell Computers,Coca Cola, DKNY, Oracle, Levis, Dunkin Donut, Hollywood films and hundreds other businesses were given free sponsorship.
Jewish medical graduates in New York were encouraged to register with them and allowed to practice privately with this interest-free loan. Now Iknow why most hospitals in New York and California always lack specialist doctors.
Smoking will lead to generations of moron. During my visit to Singapore in 2005, I was surprised to see smokers are regarded as outcasts and theprice of a pack of cigarettes is about USD 7. Like in Israel it is a taboo. Singapore's form of government is similar to the Israelis. And that is the reasonwhy most of their universities are of high standards, even though Singapore is only as big as Manhattan.
Look at Indonesia, everywhere people are smoking. The price of a pack of cigarettes is very cheap only USD 0.70 cents! The result is millions ofpeople with very few intelligent. You can count the number of universities, what product they produced that they can be proud of, low technology,can't speak other than their own language, e.g. why is it so difficult for them to master the English language? All this is due to smoking, their diet, culture.
In my thesis, I do not touch on religion or race - why the Jews are so arrogant that they were being chased around since the time of the Pharaoh until Hitler.For me it is about politics and survival. The bottom line is: Can we produce intelligent generations just like the Jews??
The answer could be yes. We need to change our daily habits of eating, parenting, etc. and maybe within 3 generations, it could be achieved.This I could observe in my grandson, for example, at the age of 9 he could write a 5-page essay on "Why I love tomato"
May all of us be in peace and succeed in producing future generations of genius for the betterment of humankind, no matter who you are.Dr A Jagan Mohan Reddy
