      I really liked Mr. Agarwal. He came across as a simple but resolute, and a spiritual man (well, his company's name, Vedanta, did hint towards his Vedanta inspired spirituality). He is right on when he says that religion has nothing to do with spirituality. You could see his trouble with the English language, but even with the limited language skills he managed to put across his thoughts on the great qualities of India and her people very well. Glad to have seen this interview.

      India phenomenon is not a result of any great leader's or businessman's vision. It just happens to have right tools when everybody else in the west is looking for them. It certainly is good to see some of India's top businessmen taking initiative for the progress of people. I think India more than anything else is looking for a leader with a vision, who can define the direction of the future.
