3,650.00 India Rupees = 82.9079 United States Dollars for those interested.

Think Coca-Cola's behind this?

So, many childless women throng the place every year on the eve of Ashokastahami and a small quantity of the well water is auctioned.

You know, because that's what India needs...more people

So are the magical Shiv-trinos in the water guaranteed to make you more fertile? I would guess not...

Could be. But Coca Cola usually like to add toxic chemicals to the water before they boost its price by about 3000% and sell it back to consumers.

The highest bidder this time paid Rs 3,650 while the second and third pitchers of water went for Rs 2,450 and Rs 1,600 respectively. The total income earned was Rs 16,130.

no wonder they stink, cuz water is so expensive to shower with.
Their religious stories and this whole rip-the-people-off for it is such a big sign of their naivity (or rather ignorance).

In the backwards tribal areas of India, women's value is based on the dowry paid and child bearing ability.
If your bride doesn't not conceive, you can send her back to her father and keep the dowry.
We got grossed out by the Pakistanis throwing acid on people a few weeks back. India is worse. They have the "baked bride" syndrome. After the husband has spent the dowry, his wife is immoliated by a kerosene stove "accident". He does not have pay the dowry back. Within a month or so, he imports a new wife, recieves the dowry, cooks her, gets a new wife...
It's the Circle of Wife.

This question has come up in the past so here's a little
public service history love lesson for ye'all.

Indians are Aryan by *definition* (see: Rig Veda) and
constitute the 'Indo' in the phrase:

'Indo-European languages and peoples'

The 'swastika' is a hindi/sanskrit word and is the
holiest symbol in India. Think all temples, books,
ceremonies, marriages, offices, decorations on
pastries, cakes, doormats whatever. Essentially found
with a higher density than say crosses in the
Vatican. The native German word for 'swastika' is
'hakenkreuz' which means hooked cross. Whenever you say
'swastika' you are speaking Hindi; other related
symbols are 'shubhtika' and 'laltika' (the red dot in
dothead). The dot and the swastika are both Aryan symbols
-- you cannot be Indian without using them both.

The nazis used the swastika symbol specifically,
because of the linguistic links between German, Latin
and Sanskrit/hindi, based on earlier work by Max
Mueller and others, who quite rightly theorized that
those speaking the same mother tongue were of the same
stock. And no the nazi's did _not_ always reverse
the swastika as is often but wrongly believed.

The quintessential and most famous Hindu God of War
is 'Arjen/Arjun' (for example). This Arjen dude rode around
in a chariot along with his driver Krishun (often
mispronounced as Krishna) and caused much pain in all and
sundry. Being Indo-European, 'Arjen' also happens to be a
Dutch name.

Both pornography [kamasutra, temple engravings] and
getting shiat faced hammered on booze [soma, amrith] are
distinct Indian/Aryan inventions.

Some North Indian women are quite hot. Sure their
country is a stinking festering shiathole but from what
I've read, that's largely due to the same reasons that
the Roman Empire fell -- people essentially got too
comfortable around a thousand years ago and (in the case
of India) were invaded repeatedly by the Semitic
Hordes of Islamic Terrorists (shiat's) and then much
later by the Brits, French, Dutch and Portugese. The
Brits kinda edged every one else out and fscked
everything up even further with their own inimitable
panache and style.

Indians have been mongrelized somewhat over the centuries
but most modern day North Indians are _still_ genetically
indistinguishable from North Europeans and suffer from the
same genetic diseases. Celiac disease is a Indo-European
genetic disease and not commonly found anywhere else in any
other ethnic group on the planet.

Chinks often show the Buddha as a fat slanty eyed
figure but in reality 'The Buddha' was an Indian Hindu
Prince whose real name was 'Gautum Siddharth' and
therefore Buddhists also tend to use the swastika
(although the usage is much rarer in Buddhism than in
normal Hinduism).

Except Pakis are non-Aryan muslims and Indians are Aryan by definition in the Rig Veda. Very different cultures.

"I say bring on the westernization of the planet."

Indians are as Western as you can get. See the earlier post about swastika, shubhitika, laltika, arjen, and sanskrit (their language) being the proto-Aryan language from which German (and English) are descended. After all, there was a reason why the Nazis specifically choose the holiest symbol in India (swastika) and why Nazis spoke Hindi when they said 'swastika' instead of speaking german and saying 'hakenkreuz'

That's not THE buddha. The fat, happy buddha is the chinese version of Maitreya, the Future Buddha.
