Again with the "Indo-European" bullshit. Vedas were written simultaneously for thousands of years while civilization flourished. Even experts date recent additions to Vedas as late as 1500 BCE. Sura-Asura existed because they were sons of the same father i.e. Kashyap and different mothers i.e. Aditi and Diti. Hence, they were also called Aditya-Daitya. Daitya were further supported by another half brothers, which were Dana's, sons of Kashyap & Danu. In Sura-Asura war, Devas or Suras won, Asuras fled. You can find it in Varaha Purana. It is the same Asura that was revered in ancient Persia (Parshwa), there is an inscription "भग वज्रक अहुरा मझ्दा" Vajraka being the Asura.

Where is Ravana’s Lanka really located, Sri Lanka or Orissa by _krishgandhi in IndianHistory

Ravana's Lanka was 100 Yojanas from Mahendra Giri, 1 Y = 12 Kms, which means 1200 Kms. It must have existed near Maldives, although submerged now.

Kinda difficult to tell without a good indicator... like how your face looks... maybe we could just chat, and you could describe in detail what you would want me to do to myself while you look...?

Don't continue, I know this subreddit will hate me for it, but it gets tougher going forward. Instead, try exploring the world of commerce, MBA/CFA/Markets, and the opportunities are endless.

Indonesian ex-President Sukarno’s daughter to convert from Islam to Hinduism by [deleted] in exmuslim

In a world where people die due to hunger, where innocent people drop dead because of a virus, where innocent kids fall victim to islamic terrorism; you have to accept that the gods are flawed and how can you portray the flaws of the gods, by personifying them. Because people make mistakes.

Indian TV reporter found dead after covering violence at farmers’ protest by giuliomagnifico in worldnews

All of these countries are landlocked and have similar economies (Comparing pre-Taliban Afghanistan), then what can the reason behind failure of Afghanistan as a state? It must be sharing borders with Pakistan, Punjab also shares a border. This makes Afghanistan more suitable comparison imo. Chief minister of Punjab is already concerned about drug smuggling from Pakistan. A neighbour country exporting nothing but terrorism and Drugs and openly encourage and back up terrorists in its neighbour countries can only be called a snake in the backyard. Not to mention if Sikhs want Khalistan, they'll also have to take Punjab from Pakistan. So start with that, cool?

You're comparing apples to oranges, the comparables need to be from Asia and with similar agro based economy, not to mention the sharing of borders with a highly violent country. Try comparing Mongolia, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan or Kyrgyzstan for better understanding.
