Is India Socially, Culturally, Religiously & spiritually heaven on the earth ?

An American on his world tour noticed a golden telephone in some holy places of different countries with a sign "$10,000 per call". He was explained that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God. The American thanked the people for the same.

The American arrived India to see if Indians had the same phone. He found the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read "One Rupee per call." The American was surprised so he asked the priest there about the sign. " I've traveled all over World and I've seen this same golden telephone in many holy places. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but the price was $10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?".

The priest smiled and answered, "You're in India now, Son - it's a local call".

This is the real heaven on the Earth.

Sure, if, as the man said, you consider a class system that consigns a entire class of people (mainly the darker skinned ones) to subhuman status and the existence of poverty so extreme that thousands of people live in the streets of major cities, as heaven on earth. Otherwise, no!
The economy is a wreck, it's engaged in a war with it's neighbor, women can still be killed by their husband and his family for many reasons, such as a too small dowry, not having a son, etc., extreme poverty is widespread, many villages have no water or no clean water, filth is everywhere because of poor or no sanitation facilities. I could go on and on.
Whatever possessed you to ask if India was heaven on earth?

As a muslim you can have as many wives as you want in a lifetime, but only 4 maximum at a single time.

So, assuming you aspire to have 80 wives in 10 years, what you must do is perform a divorce once every 1.5 months.

Think of any reason you want and fataq the wife (say, I divorce you 3 times). If you want your son's wife, just tell him allah says to give her to you just like muhammad did to his own adopted son's wife. If you want your mother, tell your father you met allah in your toilet while praying and allah says to let you have her. You will return her to him after a few rounds by divorcing her. Then he can have her back.

That way, you get to re-cycle your harem and have sex with any woman you want. Great being in islam right? Get to have sex round the clock and even 72 sexy virgins after killing innocent infidels.

No adultery and no pornography!!! Wow!

If you consider that a fatalistic place,with a worse class system than England is 'heaven',then of course it is.

rip off!

thats a rip off of a jewish joke!!

it was originally the rebbe visiting the pope, and it being expensive, then the pope visiting the rebbe and trying to pay him for the call and him insisting that the pope not have to pay, because it was a local call.

NO ITS RACIST ,STUCK UP , AND HAS TOO MUCH TUBERCULOSIS!

No, I don't agree, because in India,lots of peoples are there who take the advantage of innocent,so you can't say that "this is the real heaven on Earth".

sure, just ask your untouchables living in squalor.

do you think they would agree?

Indians have cosmopolitan outlook. The people of various religions have made their home. They have lived peacefully from yore. Various new religions have evolved here like Buddism, Jainism, Shivism and Vishnavism so on. Hinduism has become mother of all religions as propagated by Swami Vivekananda. We have got much tolerance for other religions. Indian spirtualism is lifeline of all religions throughout the world. Finally, cost of living is not very high when compared to other developed and advanced countries. Therefore, India is socially, religiously and spirtually heaven on earth. I do not agree with the story of golden telephone making cheap about India. So don't shoot such questions degrading India comparing with America.

Very good!.
But to look at India today, with its billions, its poverty and its dirt and false religion....I doubt it.

Poverty, child labour, dowry, bride burning, domestic violence, caste system, no free education, intolerance, discrimination, pollution, ... did you say 'real heaven on earth'? It needs much improving. So, its time to make it happen.

Depends the way you accept it. If you accept the spirituality and cultures of India and if you are able to impose them in your life, any place you go in the world would be a heaven. That is the reason why so many people in the globe are looking up for yoga and meditation (A gift of Indian culture to the world). Cos even after leaving a lavish and free life they are not able to find mental peace.
