... what I like about India...here is my list
1. When other civilizations were building pyramid, gargantuan towers -- India was developing society based on vedic values and character of humility. Believe in humanity, established the principle of Live and Let Live.
2. When rest of the world was busy in persecuting people for their beliefs, we gave them asylum and protection from persecution
3. When some misogynist, delusional, uneducated, suffering from little man syndrome desert nomad was preaching hatered we were building universities where education about pursuit of happiness was taught and debated. Our universities were teaching the path of nirvana that was not based on dogma but on karma.

We Indians are emotional people, we want to live in history and nostalgia, we aspire for some utopian nation, we are the people who never want to face reality. Reality of this nation is diametrically opposite to our Vedic History. We are among the most cruel, self serving, back stabbing, treacherous, low self esteem, lacking any pride, strength, character and moral values, manipulative among our peers in this world. We never get tired of preaching and sermonizing others.

india, indeed was a country of universal love, sanctity and faith with well behaved people. t[SIZE=-1]he mystery of indian myths and indian art lies partly in the fact that it suggests rather than states.

its a pity to learn tht this is my country now... it's just like nowhere else on earth - a sensory overload... utterly chaotic nd bursting with unruly energy with people full of false pride and ego... sad, but true !!!

My friend these days such kind of stuffs are looking very horrible to me and I am really worried about it;

Swine flu has claimed an estimated 10,000 lives in the United States, more than double the estimated death toll in November. The H1N1 virus has infected about 50 million (5 crore) people, or one in six Americans, as of November 14.

India is still influential in Forbe's Top 100 Billionaires' List

Whenever we Indians express our happiness of our past glory some people turn it down saying it a rubbish. As we still feel happy of our golden past then we can talk about it as far as such topic is concerned 'what do we like about India?'
Well we all should live in present in fact. In that way one another fact makes me smile with pride and that is the Forbe's list of top 100 richest persons of the world. One fact is very interesting in it that China is no where to the Indians in this list. India has 7 entries there to China's just 1.
Proud Indians please enjoy the list :

Bhai I hav read in a book that National Antem was originally wirtten by Ravindernath tagore & some line modified by Motilal nehru to appraise King Goerge V & queen of england in 1919

आप ने बिलकुल ठीक कहा राज फोगाट जी , जिसे हम राष्ट्रीय गान समझते हैं वो गीत रबिन्द्रनाथ टगोर (जो की एक चापलूस था अंग्रेजों का ) ने george पंचम की स्तुति मैं लिखा था उसकी भारत यात्रा पर , न की देश भक्ति की भावना में, और इसीलिए अंग्रेजों ने उसे नोबेल पुरस्कार भी दिलवा दिया था
बड़ा दुःख होता है जब कुछ लोग इस चाटुकारिता के गीत को अपना राष्ट्रीय गीत मान के खुश होते हैं
और बड़े शर्म की बात है इस देश के लिए की आज़ादी के ५० साल बाद तक भी हमारी संसद मैं येही जन गन मन गया जाता रहा रहा , कोई उसे रुकवा न सका , वो अब जा के बदली हुआ है
ये हैं हमारी हीन भावना का चरमोत्कर्ष और नितिन भाई आप ऐसे गीत पर गर्व कर रहे हो जो केवल एक गुलामी का प्रतीक है

इसमें ज्यादा खुश होने की कोई बात नहीं है जहाँ कुछ लोग जब बहोत ज्यादा अमीर होते है तो वहां बहोत सारे लोग ज्यादा गरीब हो जाते है
आप इन गिने चुने अमीरों को देख रहे हो , जबकि हमारी अधिकर=तर आबादी गरीबी की रेखा के नीचे जी रही है, और आम आदमी जो गरीबी की रेखा के नीचे नहीं है उसका का भी जीवन कितना विषमताओं से भरा हुआ है इन २-४ अरब्पतिओं के होने से हम कोई महान नहीं हो जाते
मैं ऑस्ट्रेलिया मैं रहता हूँ और हमारे देश की जो छवि इन लोगों के मन मैं है उसे देख कर मेरा सर शर्म से झुक जाता है , the world dont give a **** about these few billionaires

Couldn't agree with you more. One of the dichotomy of this nation is "Gandhiji" and his cronies are the father of this nation, nothing could be further from truth, this nation was founded by Raja Bharat, son of Shakuntla and Dushyant. Once the nation is founded how can it be founded again, how can you have two fathers? Did this nation disappear from the face of planet and was later founded by the great adventure of Gandhi, Nehru--NO. This nation was always there, we have lost everything that was Indian--all of which is taught in school books, made movies. Our past glory is merely a footnote in history, mere aspirational imagination.

And I know some members will cloud this issue by blaming western countries etc. But keep in mind we are talking about our birthplace, our country, our nation.

We Indians are emotional people, we want to live in history and nostalgia, we aspire for some utopian nation, we are the people who never want to face reality. Reality of this nation is diametrically opposite to our Vedic History. We are among the most cruel, self serving, back stabbing, treacherous, low self esteem, lacking any pride, strength, character and moral values, manipulative among our peers in this world. We never get tired of preaching and sermonizing others.
Don't take me wrong we sure do have company in this matter. :p

Coming to main topic what I like about India...here is my list
1. When other civilizations were building pyramid, gargantuan towers -- India was developing society based on vedic values and character of humility. Believe in humanity, established the principle of Live and Let Live.
2. When rest of the world was busy in persecuting people for their beliefs, we gave them asylum and protection from persecution

करण जी मैं आप से सहमत हूँ, हम भारतवासी किसी नशे में या किसी स्वप्न में ही जी रहे प्रतीत होते हैं हम में सत्य को हजम करने की शक्ति नहीं हैं मेरे आप जैसे लोगों को कुछ लोग कहेंगे की हमारे अन्दर राष्ट्र प्रेम नहीं है, हमें भारत की हर चीज़ बुरी लगती है आदि, पर वो गलत हैं , हम अपनी कमिओं को देखने की और स्वीकार करने की और फिर उन्हें दूर करने की हिम्मत रखते हैं जब तक बीमारी को पहचाना ही न जायेगा तो उसे दूर करना कैसे संभव होगा ?
जो लोग अपनी दुर्बलताओं पर पर्दा डालते है वो उनमे कभी भी सुधार नहीं कर सकते, कुछ लोग ऐसे भी होंगे जो भारत के क्रिकेट मैच मैं अपने मुह पर तिरंगा पुतवा लेने मात्र को ही देशभक्ति मानते होंगे और भारत के जीतने पर उसको महान समझ लेते होंगे , कुछ लोग भरतनाट्यम, कुचिपुड़ी, भांगड़ा को ही भारतीय संस्कृति समझ लेते होंगे , कुछ लोग यहाँ फैली हुई दुश्पराम्पराओं को भी महान मान लेते होंगे
ऐसे लोग वास्तव मैं घोर अज्ञान मैं जी रहे हैं
so v shud definately take pride in our great vedic culrure, but along with that v shud not hesitate in accepting our negatives.

Asia's Billionaires' Power House India stands 3rd in World in overall Billionaires

India is great again. The Forbe's list of billionaires shows it. India with 52 Billionaires stands 3rd in world and 1st in Asia.
If some people think that why should all Indians be happy for it, then I want to ask such fellows that if any sportsman of USA or Australia wins gold medal in Olympics or any other big sports event then why the all country feel proud.
Here are the link for Forbe's overall Billionaires' list and below it a question that why the Michael Felps is being hailed in USA for creating world record in swimming, while it doesn't mean that all americans are as skilled swimmer as him.

3Cs rule India

India is a diverse country, the whole world knows it. If it has learnt the world the lession of brotherhood, piece, mercy etc., there is another side of the coin too. Actually 3Cs reign India.
1st C cricket, 2nd C cinema and 3rd C crime.
Presenty India is No. 1 Test side in the world.
India's movies...wow...whole world love these. Slumdog Millionaire swept away most of Oscar awards this year and that movie gave very nice message to the world that India (like a slumdog some decades back) has now become one of the most influential countries of the world (millionaire). Whole world applauded this notion. The India's music...fantastic...below are the 2 links (one for a Punjabi song about jats and other one for a hit
Bhojpuri song)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixxVsR6DB3E
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VW0_BB0rXE
As things always have some negative points too, so India has one unwanted tag also. This is about the 3rd C crime. Some time back a research showed that India is murder capital of whole world. I don't like this C, but I am having to tell about it too. Here is the related link

India No. 1 in World in Milk Production and Many Other Edibles

Agriculture, another great quality of India. India has huge population of 1.17 billion people and we are capable of feed them on our own. This huge population make us feel secure and powerful. Many absurd and less populated countries like South Africa (4.9 crore) and Australia (2.2 crore) can be beaten up by the Indians even by the sticks.
India is the largest producer in the world of milk, tea and many other edibles. It also has the world's largest cattle population (28.10 crore). It is the second largest producer of wheat, rice, sugar and many other foodgrains. India accounts for 10% of the world fruit production with first rank in the production of banana and sapodilla (cheeku).
Proud Indians please enjoy the data :

And what about the gods (including Hanuman; the deity of USA Prez Barack Obama) see link:

What can I do in it mate, if you got only ugly ones around you (they must have been from South Africa). Indian girls' beauty is also a buzz in USA. See this link;

And I am not over yet, pal. I still have a lot about India. "With malice towards none"

Humble Appeal To the NRIs

Dear NRIs,
When I started posting for this thread I was not sure that India has so much in it. I am feeling aghast to realize that almost in all fields India is either No. 1 or 2 in world. So guys you please don't start thinking to return to India as mostly NRIs are doing these days. You are better where you are. The foreign currency you send, that increases our forex reserves.
