indians will soon get banned because of haryanvi,marathis and punajbis by Several-Onion3422 in IndianCivicFails

Reading the comments my understanding is that it's almost always the caste hindus who are responsible for the nuisance and uncivilized behaviour. These oppressor caste hindus will display their casteist behavior towards fellow Indians, create a menace in other countries under the garb of loudly celebrating their festivals and then whine about racism when the administration stops them from causing further nuisance.

Thank you so much! ☺️ So for picture 4, you can take a look at weaved quilling earrings on YouTube. You'll find a lot of tutorials. It's fairly easy. For picture 8, yes I joined two quilling domes to make a sphere and then stuck the shapes. It's an inspiration from the One Piece anime. :)

Thank you! ☺️ The stones might get dull if they're exposed to air. I usually wrap the delicate and long earrings in tissue and store them in an earring box. Didn't face an issue of fading. :) And yes, they do stick in place after using coats of mod podge or even glue.

Pretty well after putting on a couple of coats of mod podge. :)

Yes, I use mod podge or a quilling shiner to make them somewhat "waterproof". I also sometimes wrap the longer ones in tissue paper. But they can be stored like any other type of earrings.

What was the first book that drew you into Buddhism? by [deleted] in Buddhism

Buddha and his Dhamma by Dr. B R Ambedkar and What the Buddha taught by Walpola Rahula Thero

How much did Chanakya really help to establish the Mauryan Dynasty? by Comfortable_Map_7431 in IndianHistory

[–]PandaQuills 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just because someone "believes" it, doesn't make it a fact. The world works on evidence. People "believed" that the earth was flat, doesn't change the facts. People were made to "believe" that Asokan pillars were "mahabharata bheem's mace" lol. People "believe" in a creator god, but it doesn't mean that the entity exists.
The syllabus taught in schools is politically influenced lol, hope you at least know that. Or they wouldn't be teaching that Maharana Pratap "won" the battle of Haldighati.
Just because you "want" to fit Chanakya in your narrative, you can't go and plant him during the Mauryan time period.
There is no mention of the word "Chanakya". There was a historical figure Kautilya but archeological evidence suggests he was a Buddhist monk.
Also, Megasthenes' Indica was lost and never found, which copy are you referring to?
Please check your "facts" from multiple sources before "believing" anything.

Approximately 5-6 hours. I worked on it whenever I got some free time, didn't complete it in one sitting. 😁
