Hi GoKnow! How very cool that you went to India!!!! I have not, but if the Lord wills it, perhaps I may get to go one day.
I trust your observations. I believe that they are correct and reflect a lot of the kind of socialization that their children undergo in their cultures - globalization efforts notwithstanding.
Take a peek at miss marmelstein’s up thread comments. She has been living around Hindus in America for some time, and has some interesting stories too!
Yes, I have read MM’s posts. Very interesting and fun to read.
I’m glad I traveled to India in my younger years. It’s a tough trip. Don’t expect I’ll be going back any time soon. But never say never.
I would like to go to India, too, although many friends have said the intense poverty and dirt is very upsetting. A British friend of mine told me to pass up the cities and visit the hill stations of India.
I also finished Paul Scott’s Raj Quartet which is about India during the Second World War and Independence. An amazing book told from the point of view of various Brits, Hindus and Muslims.
