It might have been unintentional, but the idea of foreign genes
sounds somewhat racist.
Besides, isn't it possible to not perceive as a foreigner someone
who has lived in the place for a long time, accepted culture, language, and
customs?
Is religion really of primary importance?
In India there live Hindus, Muslims, Parsis, Christians...
Are they foreigners to one another?
If so, then who is a native Indian?
And also:

interests between India and Italy/Europe/west/Christianity/white
skin. It will be suicidal to have her as PM. <
Again, is the colour of skin so important? Probably, if it has been
mentioned. But should it?
I think the most important thing about a PM is that he/she is a good
'manager' of state matters. I don't know if Sonia Gandhi is capable
of that, but it hasn't been discussed here. While the skin colour and the
place
of birth - has.

Rawat explained [about yoga]:
>exercises in which the word Om is pronounced in different ways.
( ... )
This word is considered the first/ original sound among hindus.<
I've read about it, but there was no hint of religious association.
>It is 13 or so diffrent yoga finely merge to make it look like a perfect
ballet.<
I don't quite follow this.
And:
>Thus they oppose aasaans like this.<
aasaans = ?
>I tried to mock the above people <
Certainly, mockery could be quite well heard : ))
>you are a thorough reader. missing nothing. Good.<
My humble thanks to the Tutor for his word of praise ; )))
