The reason why filming in tourist and religious places in India is restricted is due to concerns of terrorist attacks. India has had a lot of terrorist attacks in the past, that is the reason why there is lot of paranoia in the country when a foreigner is filming tourist, religious or places of National importance. Leaving this aside, India has a lot to offer, good people, good food and lot of other things.
@@Traintin just so you know, last time a pakistani national went america got PR, then changed name to david headly. Later on came to india, filmed a lot of areas and escape routes and sent those to his pakistani handlers. Later on group of pakistani terr"rists attacked mumbai and 175 people lots their precious lives.
Because of decades of terrorist attacks against hindu and sikh temples by Pakistan Many places have banned cameras for security purposes ❤ If u get a chance visit varanasi, haridwar ,...those r the most spiritual place in india and u r allowed to film there U'll love to see the culture there ❤
Yes The idea of Hinduism just doesn't stop in Hell or Heaven but goes beyond that to Moksha - Complete liberation from Cycle of Birth & Death. The temples you visited are all newly built , real old or ancient tempes I would recommend highly are Hampi , Kailasa temples , Orcha , Khajuraho , Konark.........but these are not located near touristy places except Hampi one.
There is no concept of Heaven & Hell for us. Swarga & Narak loka exist but humans don't go there ....we are trapped in cycles or birth in different life-forms and aim is moksha to get out of this cycle to be with the one
If you're in India, please consider avoiding the commonly visited, stereotypical destinations like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai.

Really liked the style of your video. I will suggest, 1. go towards Ladakh- if you want Adventure bike riding. 2. Go to andaman and nicober island- if you want blue waters and truly tropical feeling (Not Goa because its crowded and kind of overrated) 3. Himachal pradesh, uttarakhand or arunachal, sikkim, kashmir- for beautiful himalayan mountains. 4. Kerala- for backwaters. 5. Odissa, tamil nadu- for old hindu temples. 6. Rajasthan- for kach ( Salt desert of India) . Hope you enjoy your journey.
Fun fact about the Lotus temple : The entire building is an acoustic marvel and can be considered a large instrument like those ancient cathedrals, but instead of the inbuilt church organs, people here stand at a particular position and a single person sings their prayer and it gets echoed, reverberated, amplified and resonated so much so that it fills the entire building with awesome ephemeral sound...you can experience that if you visit it at exactly 3PM. among 3-4 tunes, there was one particular tune, that sounded to me like coming from another planet...I by chance had the experience of listening to it when I first visited it. Also, about the temple, it is built by the followers of Bahai faith, which is considered the 4th Abrahamic faith(other than the big 3), but it has evolved in modern times, so it has taken a lot of inspiration and rituals from the major Indic faiths as well. So, the faith is a perfect mix between Abrahamic and Indic religions. In this context, just wanna add, India is home to all Indic and abrahamic faiths, Jews were never persecuted here, it also has all the sects of Islam, and ancient branches of Christianities, The zoroastrian faith followers fled their persecution in Iran and are known as Parsis here. And of course Hinduism itself is a large umbrella of many ways of following faiths, and then there are Jains, Buddhists, Sikhs among the other major religions. It's a true pluralist country. Edit: I wrote that comment even before reaching to the end of your video where you started talking about the religion...I somehow felt that you are a spiritual person and you needed to know that..So, i wanna add something that I read somewhere. Hinduism is like the Linux of religions...which is true.
Nazi did not took the symbol it was there already in their culture. It's all over christian places.... It was called hakencreuz meaning hooked cross also called Gamadion from letter and word gama. Hitler never took it. It was Christian priest who first translated it into swastika (most probably intentionally) and Hollywood made it famous. Symbol still exist in ancient churches in fact it is on the floor of vetican. You can google it in images.
Nah. Thats more of a security issue. Like 9/11 in America, 28/11 happened in India. The terrorists used tourism to video record areas of planned attacks. That is the reason why shooting videos is prohibited in some places.
Please try other apps like OLA if UBER isn't working....else ask the hotel you are staying to give you a car for 8hrs for 80km else you can book it online for mere 2k-3k INR.
Hey I really appreciate you taking the time and interest to understand and seep into hinduism which is fundamental to indian society and culture. While visitng cool tourist places might be fun, taking the time to visit the temples and learning about the religion will truly leave you enriched for life. If you have an inferest in understanding it, I encourage you to go to rishikesh, varanasi, madurai, rameshwaram, sun temple , jagannath puri and other such ancient holy hindu sites
Outdated idea for a video, just know that akshardhama temple has suffered from terror attacks. 28/11 which is Indian equivalent of 9/11, had an American citizen filming the sites before he helped plan the terrorist attack
You look EXHAUSTED, it's the climate effect you experienced for the first time in the equatorial port of the earth with dusty, hot SUN. You must be from a sub-tropical country of the world with a different all-together climate.
India is a mini world in itself,i believe that one lifetime isn't enough to explore india and its indepth philosophy..But the more dep you dive in Hindu philosophies and culture, you'll realise that the science that you learnt as a PhD scholar is already there in thwir life style .Their spiritual philosophy of treating each and every living creature as a part of just one entity that is parmatman means supreme soul which reflects in Every living being as soul is incredible.. That's why they say Namaste as a greeting when you get vis a vis to them❤❤❤
The sensitivity towards filming and sometimes extra body/baggage checking all started after 2001 when our parliament was attacked and then again in 2008, the city of Mumbai was attacked. When you have a terror sponsoring neighboring country like Pakistan, these are the inconveniences we Indians have traded off for safety and security. And after a while, these won't even feel like inconveniences, you get habituated to it and will subconsciously realize where to film or where not to.
Travel Tip : Hi, for transportation locally or sometimes intercity via tuktuk , bicycle rickshaw , electric rikshaw etc. always check the price in uber & ola app (you can say ola is indian version of uber) this way you'll know the approx price except when apps are showing surge prices like in peak office rush hour that's why suggested you both the apps as seeing the price of same destination in them you'll really get to know actual price . Note : the non - app transport is usually 20% costlier eg: if uber/ola is says 100 rupees then the fair tuktuk price is approx. 120 rupees. By the way Welcome to INDIA 😀😊
Why did they deny your visa? Is there any animosity between USA and India? (By the way, this week started a serious diplomatic issue between Canada and India.)
It was clearly mentioned that he didn't respond or wrong response to their email with in 48 hours.. that's y visa was rejected And yeah.. Canada and India r having beef right now.. Canadian PM allegations of Indian government involvement in death of kalisthani terrorist in Canada without any proof.. if canada give some proof or evidence then Indian government can support them resolve this issue.. or if atleast provide the intelligence report, then Indian government can support in investigation at point where they got reports bases.. his empty bluffs r without proof is causing this issue.
No there is no such animosity between the two countries. Visa issuance/rejection by any country is usually a very opaque process with no explanations provided for the decision. Indian visa applications are routinely rejected by US embassies as well. The Canadian issue happened just a couple days ago so that's entirely different and unrelated.
Every other american or foreigner just go to usual places....India gate, Akshar dham....Bro you want tos feel India....go to rural Places like a village in hearts of MP or UP or Bihar...to feel india...go to South to see thousand years old temples....Minakshi Temple for example...that the india or Bharat we love and care for....
1.For transport.. try ola/uber/ rapido (last one for bike taxi, its cheaper and faster for indian traffic but make sure to ask the rider to ride slowly... Pro tip offer +50/100rs max over the app price, it happens with even indians and its not even the bike riders fault, the uber takes around 30% and havenot updated in years. 2. Delhi is a scam city unfortunately bro... Plan your trips to less crowded locations.. you can google for underrated tourist places in india... Go to extreme south or extreme north.. weather is better.. 3. Shoot with your mobile phone in restricted places. We always do it.. 4. We dont harm animals (most of us 😅) because religious belief of reincarnation.. every soul is one and on the path of achieving moksha.. so every soul is equal be it tree or cow or dog.. thats why so many animal God. Enjoy India...
Walking is definitely a healthy way to stay fit --good luck and I am enjoying your adventure so far -could you elaborate on why your visa was rejected a couple of times.
Correction/info Germany didn't take the swastic sign from Hinduism, they took it from church hooked crossed (Hakenkreuz). later Hollywood movies spied it up with Hindu swastica name
i would like to see you travling places which and not really listed on the internet that much, go to udaipur, andman and nicobar islands and don't miss durga puja of Kolkata when it starts
Hey Austin Don't say "Aldiva" at the end of the video, you say Alvida when you don't expect to see the person again (like farewell) so try to say "Fir milenge (we'll meet again)"
one thing i can teel u by seeing another travellers vloger is there are many beggers who will chase you for money be aware of them and gud luck and best wishes for your journy brooo umm and one thing if u use bharat in place of india u can get more reach i guess😁😁
WELCOME TO BHARAT(INDIA) BRO, JUST TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND ENJOY THE MOST UNIQUE COUNTRY IN THIS WORLD. SANATAN DHARMA( HINDIUSIM) IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, INCLUSIVE, OLDEST RELIGION OF THE WORLD AND IT HAS NO CREATOR. ALL ANIMALS ARE GOD SO THAT WE CAN LEARN TO PROTECT THEM AS EVERY SOUL HAS RIGHT TO LIVE. WITH GROWING WESTERN INFLUENCE, PEOPLE STARTING EATING NON-VEG BUT STILL AROUD 40% INDIANS ARE VEGETARIANS. YOU WILL DEFINITELY GONNA LOVE EVERYTHING , JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE MOVIE. AND YES TRY AUTHENTIC DISHES, STREET FOOD, AND PLEASE DO VISIT OTHER 30+ STATES AS THEY ARE LIKE WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE LIKE VISTING ANOTHER COUNTRY WITH THEIR DISTINCT LANGUAGES, CULTURE, FOOD, DRESS . ETC.
You should visit Hampi ot Varanasi If you wanna experience real culture. General tourist place have scam trap specially Delhi or Agra , be careful about that. There is whole different side of India , tropical or Hilly than just Delhi-Agra overrated touristy place.
Ask your local subscribers to give you the tour of the city. With them you will be able to appereciate things better be it about monuments, cusine, culture or people.
I am NOT a HINDU and grew up in India before moving abroad. One of the things you will notice is poverty even though the scale has come down many times in the last 25 years or so ==> HOWEVER you will rarely find violent crime on the streets like mugging, carjacking etc and remember these people are not affluent. India's biggest problem and asset IMO is its population. The citizens must work overtime on their own to reduce this burden on the country. You will also find that within India, the north --> Punjab, Haryana, UP folks are more aggressive. The folks in the East Bengal, Orrisa, Assam etc spl Kolkatta are wonderful and sweet. Good Luck in your travels and BTW you should planned a trip to visit in Oct as the heat subsides and Nov, Dec, Jan can be outright cold in North India!
your eyes needs poison as you can only see poverty. UK LOOTED 45 TRILLION DOLLARS FROM INDIA AND LEFT THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD LIKE THIS. STILL WE MANAGED TO OVERPOWER IT AND MIND IT, DAYS ARE COMING, INDIA WILL BE THE GREATEST SUPERPOWER IN 2030 .. MARK MY WORDS
Small correction: Hinduism isn't the "MAIN" religion of India. It's indeed the religion practiced among a sect large population but India is a country which gives equal Importance to every Religion. There might be people who have different sometimes opposite Views on it . But we as an Indians/Bharatiya , we Believe World is our family and we should treat every living being with care and Respect to everyone. ... yes , there are conflicts in families but it doesn't mean we hate each other. Also. The cameras aren't allowed in temples might be because people go to temples to have a peace of mind and not to get filmed by others. Cameras are kind of distraction and attracts a lot of attention. Also there are Security issues as explained by others in the comments. The only place that are not allowed to be filmed are Official/Governmental buildings or inside Religious places (temples, mosque, gurdwara etc.)
Suggestion- if ever Uber is not working , try OLA same thing diffrent company. Or else try RAPIDO , they provide motercycle taxis. And its very economical.
Please tell us where you stay and stuff, did you do much research before you went. It seems like your shocked by stuff that would come up in simple research
There are some reasons for not allowing recording in temples or religious places. The first is security, our country has faced many terrorist attacks, most of which were carried out by Muslim majority countries, in which the name of Pakistan comes at the top, followed by Bangladesh etc. There are fundamentalist radical beliefs behind them and one can also say enmity towards Hindu religion. And the second reason is that today's generation likes to go to religious places only for good selfie photos and videos rather than for doing sadhana aka meditation or worship. So for this reason, to reduce the number of such photogenic people at religious places, rules have been made that cameras are prohibited at religious places. So that those who have come for the important work of meditation or worship do not face any kind of hindrance in their work. Although I and many Hindus in the country are not so religious, still we respect those who like to worship and give full respect to their faith and Hinduism is not a religion for India, it is a way of life.. More than 95% hindu people have liberal mindset But the administration has made such rules so that the sentiments of religious people are not hurt in any way. And for this we are sorry that you had to face such a problem but we request you to support us in this and understand our feelings. And I would like to give one advice that to travel in Delhi, use Delhi Metro, believe me and take the smart card of Delhi Metro from the metro ticket counter. You will also save a lot of money Delhi's public transport is very cheap, accessible and world class you will also get 20% discount every time you travel. Before boarding a Tuk Tuk, get information about the fare from any Indian local Never feel shy before seeking help from local. Don't even think that if I ask for help from someone, maybe they will have some problem. Believe me, they will be very happy to help you.. Generally around 80% people in Delhi know English. They will help you in your tuk tuk fair matters and you will also be saved from any fraud. Because some bad people are trying to earn money by misleading foreigners like you, mostly these people are tuk tuk rickshaw drivers. These fools do not know that by doing this they are tarnishing the image of India..at the end welcome to india and i'm also from new delhi
Swastika is the ancient sacred symbol of Dharmic believers - Hindu, Buddhist and Jain.... it's the hooked cross what Christian abrahamic Germany used ... don't relate our sacred symbols with the Nazis. Stop hinduphobia.
@@Traintin 'Swastika' is an Indian/Sanskrit language and not a German term. Swastika = 'Su (good) + astika (let there be)'. The use of word 'Swastika' for Nazi Symbol AFAIK, started post-WW-II. Swastika is very fundamental to Hindu belief and its ban across all the countries has caused immense trouble for Indian diaspora.
Don't eat steey food all the time even we Indians don't eat... It's just for occasional.. lot's of middle class and upper middle class resturants are open so choose them...btw u are making good vlogs.. unlike some foreigners who's aim is to Focus on bad stuff in india.. and yeah 😂😂 please don't give more than 500 to any tuk tuk driver...they will try yo get more money so.. handle it😂😂😂
I second that. You can get the same food with same taste with better restaurants. Avoid street food and water if not sealed. If you want to try it though two things to look for. 1. Crowd 2. If the food is piping hot 3. In any case avoid water/liquid.
I really appreciate you visiting India and you trying to learn more about Hindu sign “SWASTIK” but I wanted to correct you on one thing, the sign that Nazis used was not Swastik but hakenkruis which means a kind of Cross which is a Christian Symbol not Hindu and Budha sign. If you read history you will find Nazis follow Christian ideology not Hindu so it’s clear the sign was more like Cross not Swastik. Please do check old Christian texts which has a cross exactly like Hakenkruis. So please don’t call Swastik with reference to Nazis. This whole narrative is false and demeaning to 1.2 billion Hindus world wide.
Very cliché. Nothing interesting here. Monkey attacked me, traffic, saying hello to a couple of locals, noisy traffic, no understanding of local culture. BORING!
The reason why filming in tourist and religious places in India is restricted is due to concerns of terrorist attacks.

Not really. Travellers can see places like these all over he world. The real India is what you are asking to avoid.
You should use metro or subway to travel in Delhi. Its cheap and comfortable. 🇮🇳

1. go towards Ladakh- if you want Adventure bike riding.
2. Go to andaman and nicober island- if you want blue waters and truly tropical feeling (Not Goa because its crowded and kind of overrated)
3. Himachal pradesh, uttarakhand or arunachal, sikkim, kashmir- for beautiful himalayan mountains.

Do go for uber rides which show you a fixed and reasonable price beforehand. Random auto drivers may charge tourists extra.

No there is no such animosity between the two countries. Visa issuance/rejection by any country is usually a very opaque process with no explanations provided for the decision. Indian visa applications are routinely rejected by US embassies as well. The Canadian issue happened just a couple days ago so that's entirely different and unrelated.
great video keep going buddy!! if uber doesn't work try ola. its basically the same thing but easily available in indian cities
Thank you!!!
Every other american or foreigner just go to usual places....India gate, Akshar dham....Bro you want tos feel India....go to rural Places like a village in hearts of MP or UP or Bihar...to feel india...go to South to see thousand years old temples....Minakshi Temple for example...that the india or Bharat we love and care for....
just one video I made, I'll have more videos in India in the future
@@Traintin Great bro...India has a lot more to offer then just these Monuments...go to rural india...and you'll feel loved
Very good to see your video, best of luck for your future travel . 😇
Welcome to india. Do visit my home state of rajasthan which has amazing cities like udaipur, jodhpur and jaipur and a distinct desert culture. Enjoy
1.For transport.. try ola/uber/ rapido (last one for bike taxi, its cheaper and faster for indian traffic but make sure to ask the rider to ride slowly... Pro tip offer +50/100rs max over the app price, it happens with even indians and its not even the bike riders fault, the uber takes around 30% and havenot updated in years.
2. Delhi is a scam city unfortunately bro... Plan your trips to less crowded locations.. you can google for underrated tourist places in india... Go to extreme south or extreme north.. weather is better..
3. Shoot with your mobile phone in restricted places. We always do it..
4. We dont harm animals (most of us 😅) because religious belief of reincarnation.. every soul is one and on the path of achieving moksha.. so every soul is equal be it tree or cow or dog.. thats why so many animal God.
Enjoy India...
Walking is definitely a healthy way to stay fit --good luck and I am enjoying your adventure so far -could you elaborate on why your visa was rejected a couple of times.
best way to travel in delhi is metro try taking it and its very cheap
Correction/info Germany didn't take the swastic sign from Hinduism, they took it from church hooked crossed (Hakenkreuz). later Hollywood movies spied it up with Hindu swastica name
You can take metro, it will be more convenient, cheap and comfortable l.
Take a metro train if you are traveling around Delhi, you won't get scammed,and it's much more convenient.
How is your experience in bharat plz explain how are you feeling here
The symbol that Nasi used is a hookee cross, not exactly the same as Swastika. May look close but they arnt 100% identical
i would like to see you travling places which and not really listed on the internet that much, go to udaipur, andman and nicobar islands and don't miss durga puja of Kolkata when it starts
Hopefully one day when I’m back in India
Hey Austin Don't say "Aldiva" at the end of the video, you say Alvida when you don't expect to see the person again (like farewell) so try to say "Fir milenge (we'll meet again)"
one thing i can teel u by seeing another travellers vloger is there are many beggers who will chase you for money be aware of them and gud luck and best wishes for your journy brooo umm and one thing if u use bharat in place of india u can get more reach i guess😁😁
Thanks for coming india 🇮🇳
❤️🇮🇳
So much greenary everywhere, looks really beautiful indeed. Which place is that?
Filming restrictions are due to terrorist attcks which took place in Mumbai in 2008.
Those kids almost killed u with affection 😂
And beware of scammers tho..
It's really hurts us having so many of them around us... 🙂😑
Best place to learn bargaining. Whenever they tell you price just asked for half or even 1/3 .
Hello Austin, Welcome to Incredible india... ! :)
Thank you :)
Till when you are here in India ?
I want Indian government to ease visa process so that more and more tourists can come
Full sleeves and Hat or umbrella to walk around in India.
Read history about it, why, Swastika , India's metropolitan city have more beggars, poor,unemployed, poor people than small cities or village's
Your new subscribers from India
WELCOME TO BHARAT(INDIA) BRO, JUST TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND ENJOY THE MOST UNIQUE COUNTRY IN THIS WORLD. SANATAN DHARMA( HINDIUSIM) IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, INCLUSIVE, OLDEST RELIGION OF THE WORLD AND IT HAS NO CREATOR. ALL ANIMALS ARE GOD SO THAT WE CAN LEARN TO PROTECT THEM AS EVERY SOUL HAS RIGHT TO LIVE. WITH GROWING WESTERN INFLUENCE, PEOPLE STARTING EATING NON-VEG BUT STILL AROUD 40% INDIANS ARE VEGETARIANS. YOU WILL DEFINITELY GONNA LOVE EVERYTHING , JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE MOVIE. AND YES TRY AUTHENTIC DISHES, STREET FOOD, AND PLEASE DO VISIT OTHER 30+ STATES AS THEY ARE LIKE WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE LIKE VISTING ANOTHER COUNTRY WITH THEIR DISTINCT LANGUAGES, CULTURE, FOOD, DRESS . ETC.
You doing good, travellers are welcome, one more point i don't think its safe to keep your camera on the road for filming and walking
He's constantly hot & bothered & yet he arrives during peak summer time! 😂
oopsies
I would suggest you to visit Himachal.. It is closer to Delhi and weather will suit you...
I will suggest any foreign travellers to use ola ,uber or rapido in india to avoid scam by local taxi drivers.
You should visit Hampi ot Varanasi If you wanna experience real culture. General tourist place have scam trap specially Delhi or Agra , be careful about that. There is whole different side of India , tropical or Hilly than just Delhi-Agra overrated touristy place.
Ask your local subscribers to give you the tour of the city. With them you will be able to appereciate things better be it about monuments, cusine, culture or people.
I wonder why are you not travelling by Delhi Metro subway trains, they are far cheaper and more convenient.
I am NOT a HINDU and grew up in India before moving abroad. One of the things you will notice is poverty even though the scale has come down many times in the last 25 years or so ==> HOWEVER you will rarely find violent crime on the streets like mugging, carjacking etc and remember these people are not affluent. India's biggest problem and asset IMO is its population. The citizens must work overtime on their own to reduce this burden on the country. You will also find that within India, the north --> Punjab, Haryana, UP folks are more aggressive. The folks in the East Bengal, Orrisa, Assam etc spl Kolkatta are wonderful and sweet. Good Luck in your travels and BTW you should planned a trip to visit in Oct as the heat subsides and Nov, Dec, Jan can be outright cold in North India!
your eyes needs poison as you can only see poverty. UK LOOTED 45 TRILLION DOLLARS FROM INDIA AND LEFT THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD LIKE THIS. STILL WE MANAGED TO OVERPOWER IT AND MIND IT, DAYS ARE COMING, INDIA WILL BE THE GREATEST SUPERPOWER IN 2030 .. MARK MY WORDS
Small correction: Hinduism isn't the "MAIN" religion of India. It's indeed the religion practiced among a sect large population but India is a country which gives equal Importance to every Religion.
There might be people who have different sometimes opposite Views on it . But we as an Indians/Bharatiya , we Believe World is our family and we should treat every living being with care and Respect to everyone. ... yes , there are conflicts in families but it doesn't mean we hate each other.
Also. The cameras aren't allowed in temples might be because people go to temples to have a peace of mind and not to get filmed by others.
Cameras are kind of distraction and attracts a lot of attention.
Also there are Security issues as explained by others in the comments.
The only place that are not allowed to be filmed are Official/Governmental buildings or inside Religious places (temples, mosque, gurdwara etc.)
I was saying statistically the main religion is Hinduism. And I was talking about the outside of the temple not the inside. Thanks for watching
Suggestion- if ever Uber is not working , try OLA same thing diffrent company. Or else try RAPIDO , they provide motercycle taxis. And its very economical.
Please tell us where you stay and stuff, did you do much research before you went. It seems like your shocked by stuff that would come up in simple research
I explain my process in other videos
It does not matter if something makes sense or not, one just needs to follow the laws of the country.
I did lol just curious on the different rules around the world and it’s good to question them 😉
@@Traintin A little research for any country will help. We have horrible neighbours so we have to do things differently.
Are you out of India already ? Where are you going next ?
Bro u r traveling wrong according to me atleast
Go to himachal , kerala , varanasi , haridwar, rishikesh
If u want to see something different.
everyone travels differently, all based on personal experience
Delhi metro conver all Delhi so I suggest you to take delhi metro
Bro do you just want to travel to every country you have so many places to travel in india like kashmir,ladhak,tamilnadu.....🙂
Use Google map to find bus and metro instead of 🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂️
There are some reasons for not allowing recording in temples or religious places. The first is security, our country has faced many terrorist attacks, most of which were carried out by Muslim majority countries, in which the name of Pakistan comes at the top, followed by Bangladesh etc. There are fundamentalist radical beliefs behind them and one can also say enmity towards Hindu religion. And the second reason is that today's generation likes to go to religious places only for good selfie photos and videos rather than for doing sadhana aka meditation or worship. So for this reason, to reduce the number of such photogenic people at religious places, rules have been made that cameras are prohibited at religious places. So that those who have come for the important work of meditation or worship do not face any kind of hindrance in their work. Although I and many Hindus in the country are not so religious, still we respect those who like to worship and give full respect to their faith and Hinduism is not a religion for India, it is a way of life.. More than 95% hindu people have liberal mindset But the administration has made such rules so that the sentiments of religious people are not hurt in any way. And for this we are sorry that you had to face such a problem but we request you to support us in this and understand our feelings. And I would like to give one advice that to travel in Delhi, use Delhi Metro, believe me and take the smart card of Delhi Metro from the metro ticket counter. You will also save a lot of money Delhi's public transport is very cheap, accessible and world class you will also get 20% discount every time you travel. Before boarding a Tuk Tuk, get information about the fare from any Indian local Never feel shy before seeking help from local. Don't even think that if I ask for help from someone, maybe they will have some problem. Believe me, they will be very happy to help you.. Generally around 80% people in Delhi know English. They will help you in your tuk tuk fair matters and you will also be saved from any fraud. Because some bad people are trying to earn money by misleading foreigners like you, mostly these people are tuk tuk rickshaw drivers. These fools do not know that by doing this they are tarnishing the image of India..at the end welcome to india and i'm also from new delhi
You can't film in that temple, because is was attacked by terrorist from Pakistan. So there's a concern about such places.
This vedio felt like as a martian vloging on mars 😂.
Bro just take metro , it goes everywhere 🤦🏼♂
I did!
Use Ola or Uber
Buy one indian sim and take uber or ola so u will not get scam anymore
Tourists visit delhi but they don't really know where to go. They end up going to those common places.
I think due to the G20 submit you were not allowed to flim.
🌴Welcome to kerala next🌴
Reasonfor camera restrictions
1. security
2. Tiktoekrs doing romance inside for content and disturbingotehrs peace
Are you still in delhi?😗 Can we meet?
Bro visit sikkim 🇮🇳❤️
Take a metro bro
❤❤❤
Swastika is the ancient sacred symbol of Dharmic believers - Hindu, Buddhist and Jain.... it's the hooked cross what Christian abrahamic Germany used ... don't relate our sacred symbols with the Nazis. Stop hinduphobia.
It’s not “hinduphobia” I was explaining in my education we learned about swastika through the nazis, I wasn’t aware of the sacred symbol in Hinduism .
@@Traintin 'Swastika' is an Indian/Sanskrit language and not a German term. Swastika = 'Su (good) + astika (let there be)'. The use of word 'Swastika' for Nazi Symbol AFAIK, started post-WW-II. Swastika is very fundamental to Hindu belief and its ban across all the countries has caused immense trouble for Indian diaspora.
Nazi didn't use swastikas they used hooked cross.
WELCOME TO INDIA AND PLEASE AVOID SOME ILLITERATE PEOPLE
Don't eat steey food all the time even we Indians don't eat... It's just for occasional.. lot's of middle class and upper middle class resturants are open so choose them...btw u are making good vlogs.. unlike some foreigners who's aim is to Focus on bad stuff in india.. and yeah 😂😂 please don't give more than 500 to any tuk tuk driver...they will try yo get more money so.. handle it😂😂😂
I second that. You can get the same food with same taste with better restaurants. Avoid street food and water if not sealed. If you want to try it though two things to look for.
1. Crowd
2. If the food is piping hot
3. In any case avoid water/liquid.
Visit rishikesh ❤
Say Jai Shree Ram or Hare Krishna MOnkey will not attack. BTW Welcome
I really appreciate you visiting India and you trying to learn more about Hindu sign “SWASTIK” but I wanted to correct you on one thing, the sign that Nazis used was not Swastik but hakenkruis which means a kind of Cross which is a Christian Symbol not Hindu and Budha sign.
If you read history you will find Nazis follow Christian ideology not Hindu so it’s clear the sign was more like Cross not Swastik.
Please do check old Christian texts which has a cross exactly like Hakenkruis.
So please don’t call Swastik with reference to Nazis. This whole narrative is false and demeaning to 1.2 billion Hindus world wide.
Very cliché. Nothing interesting here. Monkey attacked me, traffic, saying hello to a couple of locals, noisy traffic, no understanding of local culture. BORING!
then what attracts you ? being drugged , sleeping with 4 chicks and waking up nauseatic. you don't have any purpose in life.
Don’t watch it then
Thank you - good idea@@Traintin
Stop being an @ss.. suggest if you think there is something more to explore or let people show their pov. Pro tip dont watch the video.
You visite india or jungle, the bg sound is resist 😡
what
10 people are asking for money and food!!!! Really?! In a cafe !!?? U want me to believe that nonsense crap!
I didn’t say 10 and it was an outdoor patio open to the public
Please do not come again. You have nothing to give to it and nothing to imbibe from it.
Interesting
