Throughout @realDonaldTrump's 2016 campaign, the max crowd he attracted was less than 10000 people. Just ONE event by a foreigner, Sri @narendramodi in #Houston brought 50000 Indians in one stadium.

Think about it.

These 50000 folks didn't drop out of the sky. Why did they come there? Sure, for @narendramodi. But what brought them there is that subconscious Sanatana gene which identifies with him. THIS is why we are the ONLY civilization.

It's not an accident that @realDonaldTrump got perhaps the ONLY standing ovation in his life when he merely verbalized "Islamic terrorism" from a long suffering people who contributed so much to the US, parched to hear the words.

These are all subtle links, invisible civilizational strands that even prolonged genocides can't erase. I never cease to be amazed at our Rishis. "Foreign policy?"

Ramayana & Mahabharata & Puranas & our grandmothers knew the source of true strength.
