you are an average, comfort loving white westerner,too young to understand the culture and traditions of any other nation,atleast mentally.
You have done a great work only to spread hatred.Your work is ignorant and arrogant.
My sincere advice-Don’t choose the subjects to study which are out of the reach of your brain and heart.
Stay in your country.Be there and don’t ever come back to India.

Too bad, I’m planning to go back to India as soon as my finances allow it. Should I reconsider?

Ne pas accepter le regard extérieur, refuser la différence, refuser la perception de sa
culture par l’autre et surtout ne pas prendre le temps d’expliquer les erreurs, de corriger et
d’éduquer.
Je retourne donc à cette personne les adjectifs qu’elle emploie contre toi: ignorant,
arrogant, haineux et je m’arrête là , pour, contrairement à elle, rester poli et faire preuve
d’un minimum d’intelligence.
We usually think this kind of ignorance, intolerance and lack of intercultural understanding
is exclusively a European/Western civilisation/Imperialistic/ trait. I guess comments like
this prove us wrong.
No culture is impenetrable or benefits by trying to be that way. Only a fool thinks that its a
bad idea to learn.
You have done something well - you can see this from the passion you have elicited. Tend to
agree though a bit with the thrust of this little attack, that you seem/ are too young to
judge, as you’d agree as well I guess. On the other hand, yea, there is color in your writing,
contrast, so everything is well actually.
Best,
Gee - nevermind the bad apple -just come back ! You’re always welcome you know that
When I visited India with my father some years ago, it wasn’t hard to discern a certain
smugness (from happily few folks) over the ‘degenerate Westerner’ (me). Invariably the
questions would come about ‘x’ morally ambiguous practice, or ‘y’ example of lack of mental
discipline.
This kind of carping is rare, but it poisons the well, so to speak. It’s one thing to absorb
the subtle glories and nuances of a culture, and another thing entirely to have it verbally
inflicted on you as if you were ‘too ignorant and arrogant’ to understand. Learning and
growing is hard enough. Go to India, because you want to, because it interests you, because
you care. Let this mope solve his/her own hangups.
Best ignored! There’s always some ignoramus hanging around the corner, with absolutely nothing
I might take some French
to do but write hate mail. He’ll probably stew in his own hate and hopefully evaporate from
the face of this earth. Don’t forget to inform me when you come
lessons in the meanwhile.
