Indian Civilization, its contribution to Modern day Science and Philosopy

[peaceful]

indian members, let me tell you what is considered as a civilization:

As of today, we operate over 10000km high speed railway in China, this is more the EU + Japan combined, actually more than the rest of the world combined.
High-speed rail by country - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

how many km indians built? ZERO.

You GDP is 1.8 trillion USD in 2012. Our top 10 companies generates more GDP than your entire nation, China Petro and China Sinopec have a combined 1 trillion USD revenue.

Oh I see that you are talking about rajput princess getting married to mughal princess and fathering most of the mughal emporers..Punjabi muslims apart from the 20 year period of dulla bhatti were faithful servants of mughals or sikhs or whoever ruled that area..No point in comparing them to rajput kings or any kings for that matter.

Because after that they never bothered with Punjabis. Muslim punjabis are all converted by sufis. But couple centuries later when idiot tried force non-muslim punjabis it gave rise to Sikh empire. Punjabi Muslim & Hindus joined them because Afghans will not spare anyone, its the only time when someone stood against Afghans. All you baniya rajputs and marathas only fought against local armies of mughals, your kind was not good enough to fight real central asians.

Infact even now in riots thread Hindus were bragging as if they killed central asians invaders

A completely meaningless post. Go bang your head at the Chiang Kai Shek mausoleum and spare us the trouble in comprehending your coded words.

Thats what he said, if not for ANI(aryans) then native ASI would always live in jungles.

1. Again the word "India" is being willfully misused whereas it never existed till we, Muslims, began calling the locals Hindis from which the Brits developed this term. Even the term Hindu or Hinduism has to be understood in anthropological context. The Webster's College dictionary defines Hinduism as the common religion of India, based upon the religion of the original Aryan settlers as expounded and evolved in the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad-Gita, etc.

2. Some of the Hindu practices remain pagan and uncivilized. Sevadasis / temple prostitutes, for instance. Or the compulsion to use the menstruated blood a prostitute to commence "puja" season.

a. Ove the centuries the Kama Sutra has nearly achieved the status of a religious text.
100 sex positions | Kamasutra sex positions - Sex positions - kamasutra sex positions
b. So has The Arthasastra by Chanokya / Katulya.
c. Look at the Ajanta Ellora images which again are revered as religious objects:

3. All these in spite of:


"There is only One God, worship Him."
[Rig Veda: 6,45:16]

"...Of that God you cannot make any images."
[Yajur Veda 3:32]

4. SA has known magnificence only under the Muslims. I the history of mankind no empire can surpass the Moguls in arts, literature, architecture, economic well being, just laws, happiness of the people and security of life and property of the people. In this greatness of the Moguls the Rajputs had made significant contribution. Being an honorable people and brave, they, among all other quoms of SA, became close to the Moguls easily.

"Some of the Hindu practices remain pagan and uncivilized. Sevadasis / temple prostitutes, for instance. Or the compulsion to use the menstruated blood a prostitute to commence "puja" season." - No refutation necessary

1. Kamasutra - I am proud of it.

2. Ajanta Ellora - I am also proud of it. Much more than Charminaar for example.

I'm perplexed by the images of 2a and 2c

2c - Buddhists created Ajanta, Ellora. You may find similar architecture in China. Not sure though....

I don't see any.
Off topic, Pure Land Buddhist in China is quite different from ancient Buddhism.
