What do you think of India

I think all good qualities of Indian people come from their spirituality, which is so embedded in their life. In spiritual life one cultivates good qualities such as forgiveness, gratefulness, compassion, etc.
yeah Without Indians there is no USB, shampoo, the number 0 and literally tons of other thing

Kudos to India for its many impressive achievements, but I feel safe the world would've still discovered 0 and shampoo by now.
I'm a foodie, and I've had incredible experiences exploring the immensely diverse cuisines in India in places ranging from Mumbai to Puducherry. I hope to someday return to enjoy more.
I don't know enough about India, that's what I think. But then again it's so big and diverse that I doubt even those who live there could know much. Only UP is about the size of Europe.

So much cultural influence on the world. Sanskrit is the etymological root of many words. The philosophy, the important and early foundation of mathematics. And then the food. Too much to sum up.

Also I feel shame for scars that my Western colonialist, racist and exploitative history has left on it and its inhabitants.

Politically, today, I am worried about the violence between the different cultures living together.

My hope is that Indians can come together and overcome. Also I hope (and kind of expect) India to surprise us by delivering some kind of technology needed for humanity to live on this planet sustainably.

When we talk about the government, they are killing innocent Muslims

I have seen in India economically independent, autonomous villages. Their technology is sustainable agriculture. It comes from Vedic times of India.

But don't you think it would have been too late by now!?
