actually, most of Southeast Asia did in fact adopt Hinduism
I can't tell about South east ,but as a south asian, I find this bemusing if it's true,given the fact that we live so close to center of "Hinduism".
The actual Sanskrit name of hinduism is sanatan, which means very old. Hinduism was/is nothing more than mishmash of ancient rituals that was practiced across the globe. Nature, Element,Animal worshiping has happened across different continents in different cultures.
For example , Zoroastrians worship fire, hindus too. Now hindus give theory that worshiping fire is hindu practice.While in reality, it has no connection whatsoever.
Jainism is older than hinduism, so is shamanism. These are world views,not specific set off rules based beliefs.
I hardly believe any country ever adopted hinduism, because more or less, it's meaningless. It doesn't have the appeal of broader world view based belief of Buddhism or Shamanism, neither it has masculine Militaristic characteristics like Islamic religion that attracts Thanos- like minded people.
People may find it's culture interesting given the amount of dancing & singing that goes with it. Hindu people themselves can't tell you what it is, according to some it is way of life, according to some, it is a religion.
And you will find their beliefs/rituals vary significantly. For example, Bengali hindus do pooja of some gods, northern indians do pooja of some other Gods, South Indian hindus worship some other. And south Indians don't believe in Geeta to be the holy book of Hinduism.
Actually it has minimal impact, the caste system.
The problem with Hinduism is, they want to preserve their "old" identity ,while being attracted to organized abrahamic religion's practice regardless of they admit it or not (Arya samaj or Arya society founded by Vivekananda was a product of it) & trying to give hinduism that sort of form . And ultimately being cucked in between cultures. They were colonized,but they were also amazed by the power of colonizers. They are ashamed & thrilled to be colonized at the same time.
It's a bit confusing to understand , so let me give you an example. Hindus like to call themselves tiger,lion while being child of Gau mata(Cow mother) leading a vegan life style. But there is no vegan tiger or lion. It's a confusing set of identity they want for themselves made through self-fantasizing.
Trudeau insists
he isn't trying to "cause problems" with India, only that he is trying to uphold "rules-based order".
He's getting defensive now that it's obvious that the Five Eyes only believe in rules when it suits their interests and are only willing to give half-hearted 'concern' for the 'allegations'
That has been the case all along. Only this time, the West's biggest cheer leading Babe India, is getting spanked by daddy. Truedue's isolation story has been put to back burner after David cohen's interview. Didn't you notice the silence in Indian media for last couple of hours after that interview?
