Moving to Australia from India

I will tell everyone that they should never leave their motherland. The soil in which we play and grow up is not just a soil, but has deep connection with peace and satisfaction of our life. If you are going only for studies or business it is fine, but finally you should settle down in your own country, because those who leave their motherland they never live in peace. They are always missing something. And in their conscious they feel guilty about making this big mistake of leaving the blessed place for money and other materialistic joys.

I read what Apsara wrote. And I can just say..while it is nice to be guests and enjoy the royal treatment we get, we always have to return home, right? If not, we become unwelcome guests, and what ensues is not usually nice. Let me explain it better..they create jobs for local folks offering payscales that are enough to meet basic living standards. We, who are accustomed to substandards, go ahead and save some and over a period, buy their lands and their homes. Would you like your guest to become the owner of your home? The resent it because without such competition from outsiders the demand for their homes would have been lower, and therefore, rents would be more affordable, and so would properties. When we were ruled by the British and even the moghuls we were trying to send them away, right? What is wrong in our homes we need to correct it here, fleeing from the problem and then facing the brunt of it is not my idea of living. If we the educated desert our country where is the hope for those who are here.. Agreed we all live only once and we need to experience it all, and at least have financially what we need. But our financial goals are based on what we see and experience around us. So list those goals, go out if you must earn for your goals and return - buy that house and those properties. and even to start a business or two.in your country. Settle here..do not revise your financial plans so drastically that you never return. That wont be a way to continuously denying them what is rightfully theirs and that of their future generations. Honestly, they may not want to part with that much as well. But they would perhaps be ok because back home, you would create jobs which would keep a few more away from Maoists gangs, Naxalite gangs, and other terrorist outfits that would eventually harm the rest of the world also. Alleviating poverty is necessary to prevent such unhealthy outcomes. I think everywhere locals resent outsiders..especially if the outsiders are becoming competitors for what they perceive as their jobs. I am sorry if my views are in conflict with yours.. if poverty increases there, chances are it could become a genocide like what happened in Germany. Why push it to that level? After all, it would be our children or grandchildren who would die. Is that risk worth it? Back home you would still be a king amongst others who are not that well off. I've known many people who'd settled in Uganda for generations were sent away. That exodus, and exodus of Jews from Germany are something that give us lessons. We need to take those.

You will not have any problem if you can manage on finance front. You may get opportunities for working parttime and to earn money. Keep friendship with good people --people who continue to follow our traditions in a new land. It is not that the practice of others is not right. But it may not suit us and may cause hardship to us and to our family members. People known to me living in Australia are fine and have not told any visible/ invisible problems. enjoy. study well. get employed. lead an excellent life. blessings.
