   Why West sustain superiority and firm grip on Global affairs? Yes still west dominates.
   
   I have come across book of Neil Ferguson " West and the Rest? Very interesting and brief global history, human development.He wrote 15 th century onward Europe began journey towards science and technology by hard work and efforts.Great Invention, discoveries had been gifted to world  but empires and colonies were built  plundering wealth is a part.He says six killing application where west still have edge, Education, research, medicines, democracy,Electronics,.
   I agree with his claim and found USA, EU, Japan with strong economies and skilled people  and workhorses can win over crisis.

   They are financially so strong and technologically  so advanced. Poverty is not a problem facing them. People are well educated and their health standard is so high.  Naturally they have plenty of time to grip on global affairs. the developing nations are struggling with their own great issues like poverty, ethnically-groomed clashes and lot of serious. How can they find time and get supremacy when their internal problems give them enough headache?

   Let them be. They have to come to India for true spirituality. That's where people end up when education, research, medicines, democracy and electronics fail to give lasting peace or explain true meaning of life!
