Its not about white ,black or brown its about reading and connecting . As a Indian brown man I never read anything about our own text on self ,mind and consciousness till I was 28 coz all my life was about scoring in school and getting a job .Only when I established myself financially and yet felt incomplete I look about old ancient wisdom .
Great video with a sense of humor too! Thank you! I always wanted to go to India, since childhood, way before the hippie thing, I felt a need to go there.
I was a hippie but i'm not white, i'm from East Asia. I came to visit India & Nepal in 2014 to explore the roots of Buddhism but i ended up hating it. They have space programs to Mars, they have ICBMs and everything but they can't afford maintaining their roads in their own capital city. 80% of the places i visited smelled horrible.
Don’t come. Nobody asked you to. The two issues are very different and take very different administrative capabilities which you cannot even distinguish between.
That's like asking someone why they're getting a haircut when they have chronic stomach issues. Systemic issues like poor civil infrastructure and lack of amenities are much harder to tackle on a large scale than investing comparatively smaller amounts in the space program and defense research, which help provide a sense of national pride to the billions living in the country alongside scientific breakthroughs that can trickle down to them. And lets not act as if the nationwide financial deprivation was entirely India's own fault and not a result of centuries of colonial oppression and drain of wealth.
@@Baronnax i agree with ur first statement but as an indian myself you can only blame indias poor infra and services on colonial legacy so much until you realize that india's corrupt politicians have been holding India and indians back for years
@@Sana-jw7uy I agree with your statement too, but we can only blame India's poor infra and services on political corruption so much until you realize that we as Indians ourselves have been holding ourselves back for years. We have a "not my problem" attitude towards public spaces and property outside of our own homes and continue to vote for politicians along lines of caste, community and myopic populist policies instead of public service merit. We're fine with bribery and nepotism as long as it benefits us, and we'll sell our votes to whoever promises us the most perks, subsidies and selective benefits. However, all of this further brings me back to my point that solving such deeply entrenched issues is far tougher than funding space missions and making strides in defense tech, and the "why not spend that money on roads instead" argument is still insensible.
@@Baronnax I guess to address indias poor infra and so on, addressing indian attitudes curated since the time of the British is crucial, yes. Also I can see where you're getting at with why India might spend so much on defence and space. We're literally a country surrounded by adversaries, and so spending a boat load on strengthening our military (instead of productively addressing internal issues) is a sense of pride, and even nationalism, to millions; it puts us up there with other developed nations, even if we're largely socially backwards.
Those symbols were never called swastika, nor were those symbols of such significance in Europe. Appropriation of swastika and other sanskrit terms began in the 18th and 19th century, after european contact with sanskrit and the Indian civilization, primarily through wild racist theories like AIT.
@@Alduizard The swastika mark appears on one of the oldest Polish coins, a denarius bearing the name Misico (Mieszko). Since this coin is known from treasures dated to 1017-1025, so it is believed to have been issued by Mieszko II as heir to the throne while his father was still in power
@@AlduizardDuring the First Republic(The first time the Rzeczpospolita- Republic, as a term for the Kingdom of Poland, appeared officially on a document from 1358.), the swastika symbol also appeared on the coat of arms of the Boreyko nobility.

India Right now is not the same when buddhism was here. Hinduism is the main religion here. Pushyamitra persecuted the Buddhists and Takshashila was destroyed a long time ago. What remains is just a memory of that philosophy and poor adaptation. So you won't find what you are looking for here.
If you sit still long enough you’ll discover what Westerners were looking for in India
As an Indian that's funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You explained so much in 1 minute 15 seconds. Thank you.

swastika was found in many European civilizations ))
It was originally from India
Those symbols were never called swastika, nor were those symbols of such significance in Europe. Appropriation of swastika and other sanskrit terms began in the 18th and 19th century, after european contact with sanskrit and the Indian civilization, primarily through wild racist theories like AIT.
Symbol was found. Swastika, which is latin alphabet of “स्वस्तिक” was stolen abused. If it was called something else, we wouldn’t have any problems.
