Do Israelis consider themselves part of the Western World or the Eastern World

European countries, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina and Uruguay are generally considered the Western World due to common Greco-Roman heritage while rest of the World is considered the Eastern World

Broader definitions also include Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore in the Western World because some people conflate being "Western" with being "Developed" but those concepts are orthogonal as the cultural heritage of Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore is more influenced by the classical Chinese thought than Greco-Roman

So do Israelis consider themselves part of the Western World or the Eastern World?

Which person from your country is disliked in your country but is liked everywhere else?

Majority of Indians dislike Mahatma Gandhi now due to various reasons - Right-Wing dislike him because they believe he was an Islamophile, Left-Wing dislike him because they believe he was a Casteist

Even those who do not indulge with politics much also agree that his Sex experiments, Non-Violent protests and Village-Centric economic model are incompatible with modern world

Is Satanism an actual religion or a parody?

I thought Satanism is another religion with its own theology and rituals but most Satanists online are Ex-Christian Atheists who claim to be "Satanists" just to ragebait Christians

Most Ex-Hindu Atheists often do similar things like posting pictures of dead cow or eating beef to ragebait Hindus but they never align themselves with such demonic entities

If Satanism is not a religion then what people do in Satanic Churches? What do they read in Satanic Bible? Why do they use occult symbols to represent themselves?

Is there a Theological reason for Hinduism being concentrated in the Indian Subcontinent only?

There are 1.2 billion Hindus in the world and 1.15 billion of them resides in this region only and even among the rest 50 million Hindus, many are immigrants of this region

Considering the fact that Hinduism is a universal religion like Budhhism/Islam/Christianity, it means anyone can follow it, Hinduism in Southeast Asia exist due to Tamil Chola Dynasty and Hindu influences in East Asia exist due to Silk Road but unlike Budhhism/Islam/Christianity, Hinduism remained concentrated to one region only

I do not support 90% Caste Reservations, I oppose any policy that favours population over merit

Delimitation will shift more political power toward high-population northern states, while southern states lose relative influence despite doing better on population control and development, it is rewarding states with higher population growth and weakening the voice of states that performed better economically and socially

More Members of Parliament means more Tax money will be spend on their Salary and Allowances, Travel Perks, Accommodation and Utilities, Office and Staff Expenses, an average person of any state is not going to benefit anyway

Population of Uttar Pradesh is 248M while that of Tamil Nadu is 72M, there are 86 Medical Colleges in Uttar Pradesh while 75 in Tamil Nadu, it means there are 2.88M people per Medical college in Uttar Pradesh while 0.96M people per Medical college in Tamil Nadu, the Ratio is 3:1, a student from Tamil Nadu has 3× more chance of getting admission in a Medical college than a student from Uttar Pradesh

Uttar Pradesh needs more Medical Colleges, not more MPs for the benefit of its people

Everyone will be happy to see a developed and prospered Uttar Pradesh

This hymn is called Muthai Tharu (To Bestow Pearl, referring to Lord Murugan's pearl like smile) from Thiruppugazh (Divine Glory) which is an anthology of poems, penned by 15th century Tamil saint-poet, Sri Arunagirinathar in praise of Lord Murugan

Sri Arunagirinathar rendered his first composition 'Muthai tharu' after a miraculous rescue from sucide at Tiruvannamalai temple

Thiruppugazh is known for its exuberant and tongue-twisting lyrics, coupled with complex rhymes and rhythmic structures

Tamil Nadu has the highest number of Hindu Temples in entire South Asia and also the highest number of Gurukuls in entire South Asia

Hinduism is deeply rooted in Tamil Nadu and can never be shaken

Om Saravana Bhava 🙏
