1st, she's got tattoos. That's what they're asking about when they're curious about her skin color. Also, many people she talked to seemed to be saying that she was beautiful. Some people just have to complain about everything!

[Cornbread Mafioso 🖕🏾 @Soulful1865]

90% of the people in this video are the SAME SKIN COLOR as her, but (in their minds), they think they are lighter, different from her, ..thats a mental illness. LMAO.

@yajnadevam @ProjectBihar Depending on the definition of "decline," the Bhakti movement, which preached that anything goes in the name of devotion, contributed heavily. But I believe, in a country of 1.4B+, you either lift everybody up or sink with the ship. And lifting up 1.4B takes time and sacrifice.

[Usha Jayaraman @RaagHindustani]

@ProjectBihar @yajnadevam You should read about Ramanujacharya (he was a brahmin who made the Sri Vaishnava movement socially inclusive, giving panchakarma to people of all castes. Many Iyengar brahmins are thought to have been assimilated from other castes through his movement (though debated).

@MumukshuSavitri @TenzingLamsang Why does every idiot out there turns into a smug lecturer the moment India comes up? The same people who tiptoe around every other culture with sensitivity suddenly feel morally entitled to patronize 1.4 billion Indians like they’re correcting a child. The arrogance is staggering

[Usha Jayaraman @RaagHindustani]

@aslicheen From China's perspective, India is in the "West." The story "Journey to the West" is about a Chinese monk who went to India to get Buddhist scriptures. Some parts of what are Western China today used to be part of the Indian cultural zone. Just need to spread this awareness.

@yajnadevam It's called "kath-kuni" and it's made of stone and wood interlocked together for sturdiness and flexibility in earthquake prone regions.

@amoghdot @Rose60653167 Do share with friends & family, as Indians should know enough about their culture to debunk the various malicious theories that are being peddled.

@Rose60653167 I see a lot of non-Japanese also liking my post above. If you'd like to read the same article in English, here you are: https://t.co/RiDD3TA2SM

@Rose60653167 「牛は神様の使いだから大事にしないとね！」最近の若いインド人はそういう理解になっているのね😅❗️実は、インド人が牛を崇む背景にはいろんな歴史があります。よかったら呼んで見て、息子さんの友達にも教えてあげてください！
なぜヒンドゥー教で牛が崇敬されるのか: https://t.co/SbsscngdBL

@macadamia6113 私の日本でのチャイの入れ方：電子レンジで使用可能なコップに水100ml、2.5グラムのティーバッグをいれ、600Wで90秒。テラコッタ色になるまで牛乳（生乳）で割り、好みの量の砂糖を入れればインドのチャイに近い味になります。最後に小さじ1/4位ドライジンジャーパウダーを加えるとさらにおいしい。😀

@tippity Don't know about this particular place, but most Indian thali restaurants have waiters constantly coming by with sides to serve guests seconds and thirds of dishes they want. Just as at home. These restaurants are not aimed at people who treat "all you can eat" as a sport.

@learning_yohei 人間の多くは右利きなので、どこの国でも大事なことは右手でやりますよね？当たり前だと思います。また、インド人はカレーなどを手で食べていると、手が汚れます。両手汚してしまうとお水飲んだり、お変わり出来ないから、左手はきれいにしておきます。

Loved #AshaBhosle ji's versatile voice and how her voice remained young until the very end.
