Hi Tensing! Your post brought some thought to mind. I live abroad and have no objections to your thought. But would like to offer a general suggestion. One can only hope our fellows avoid making any blanket statements, providing some material, a topic, or point out the erroneous suggestion, etc. I am not prone to taking umbrage, and do not include myself in this congeries of "people of Indian origin not living in India;" still, I do appreciate clarity. Thinking cogently until it becomes the norm in any being takes time. Writing is a whole other matter.
Many in the West, including me (this is one way to be real by looking closer at oneself) are not doing well. "Ensconced cushiness?!" Temerity?! Well. those who fall into that sense of privileges (or, lets simply say they work hard, as do their old families in Goa) do not say much. On Goanet there are a few who express on a variety of issues. Most of the alphas have gone way. Other probably are succumbing to illnesses. I can say these things. Then there are others who are simply living their good lives, helping some and going about their business. The same who helped in whatever way to help jumpstart endeavors, buying bibiks, sharing knowledge, etc. Speaking for self, rather than go Bhasma, found it better to develop a thicker skin. In my case, it had to do with protecting myself from some in the Desh. Note I did not say all.
