 First of all, I would say that, although I would be happy to see it as an optional school subject in every Indian school, the classical Indian dance on a professional level is not for every everyone. It is too demanding and requires subtle intuitive intelligence and refined, spiritual nature (in Kali Yuga, it is in short supply).

BTW, being a European and raised in purely western culture (too materialistic and primitive in everything concerning art and spirituality), I believe everyone knows the reason why 99.9% Indians become NRI's.
They cannot be called missionaries. They trade the spiritual atmosphere and true art of their native land for the cheap hamburgers, posh cars, enslaving "careers", and a host of other mythological "freedoms", and make the paedophile Monckey Jacksons their "Gods".

It is a miracle that some NRI children's genes subconsciously lure them back to the heights of their lost values.
