Great truths:
Q1 Evolution didn’t prepare humans for wearing clothes.
Q2 Dating in this country wouldn’t make much sense in that country, but
with low levels of “international” travel and coordination, that wasn’t
really a problem ( was there any dating in India? I mean not European
dating.)
Q3 My note- We are in Kaliyuga and not dwapara yuga. In dwapara yuga
probably people were knowing zero, and *after yuga change the knowledge
would have been disappeared {* ware wah; did gravitation was a new find
or alredt that existed discovered?; people in India before kaliyuga did
not know numbers and you too follow it?. Do you recite without knowing the
meaning? {it says the number 1 to and square root
1,2,4.1625,36,49,64,81,100,121, etc.
