I don't get it.

It's culturally alien - There is no similarities between western culture and Hindu culture. Westerners love to eat beef, while Hindus think you're eating a sacred animal (in reality a dumb docile lump of shit).

It's impoverished - Lots of westerners seem convinced that it's a future superpower and will one day be something. Don't waste your breath folks, it won't. There are more poor people in India than in the whole of Africa. You cannot even imagine how poor most people in India are and how squalid their cities are.

It's far away - There are lots of far more accessible and more interesting countries that don't have the same retarded cultural differences that the average westerner has no interest in. North Africa or the Caucasus is geographically much closer yet few westerners have any interest in those places. They're also much closer culturally and don't worship cow shit.

Are you out of your mind!? Europeans and most Indians have ancestors that belonged to the same civilisation/linguistic group less than ten thousand years ago! There's been an intense exchange of ideas between India and Europe (from which Graeco-Buddhism derived) ever since the dawn of civilisation - the Devanagari script used to write Hindi and our very own alphabet, for that matter, come from the very same source.

And na'an is bloody great!

It's because the British influence on their culture make their immigrants much easier to deal with than those from Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

I came here for the food joke but Eddie beat me to it :/

I think there is a lot of compatibility between middle and upper-class Indians and their Western counterparts. And as Lira stated, the ties between the two civilizations go back a long way. Also of course there's the British influence, as stated above.

with videos like this, how could you not want to be indian?

look at how happy everyone is.

I for one love it for praise of Ganesha, their elephant god who rides a mouse & falls and bursts into treats he's so goddamed engorged on candies and is beheaded by Shiva and pollutes the Ganges River every festival in honor of him, Ganesha.

xoxo Ganesha

The Kama Sutra!

With advice like, avoiding men with worms in their mouth, how could one not be seduced by its sensual descriptions?
