@meeper its so neat that the vedas are way older than the script used to write them. I love how you can write sanskrit with so many alphabets, there is no sanskrit alpabet

@meeper honestly I should add Punjabi to my list well before bengali and kashmiri, I find Sikhism really beautiful and maybe I can convert them or they can convert me

brahmic scripts absolutely mog all other scripts, no contest

gotta learn modern standard hindi with a good helping of urdu slang for the communication with north indians and understanding of most modern hindu literature.
absolutely gotta learn classical and epic sanskrit for the devotional literature and esoteric knowledge. might learn vedic sanskrit one day, but right now that old stuff doesnt interest me. its cool for the PIE understanding though.
gotta learn middle and to a lesser extent modern tamil, middle for the devotional literature, modern for the communication with very south indians.
i also wanna learn telugu, which enjoyed a cultural prestige in the south during its early modern phase, and is still the most spoken dravidian language. im super interested in the apparent euphonicism and in understanding Carnatic south indian music, which is written in telugu or sanskrit apparently. I also like how if I did this hindi, telugu and tamil would form a continuous landmass of my understanding.
lastly, I'd like to learn modern bengali because its another indo-aryan language with many speakers, and using my knowledge of it I could talk to my step brothers wife's family. it would also be neat to speak to indians, pakistanis (with my hindustani) AND bengalis.
as a bonus, and this is a reach, kashmiri. not because its the language of kashmiri shaivism, but because its the language of modern kashmiri shaivis and also kashmiri muslims. maybe I can solve the rift who knows. :P

@technolyze theyre almost always dudes in my experience also. I guess women turn tricks instead -_-

@technolyze ohhhhhhhhhh a busker is a person who does busking. that makes sense lol. I find that usually buskers aren't that good and just operate by pity

@technolyze what's that

this combination is incredibly and inscrutably hot, even if shes somewhat homely the dissonance with the latent beautiful voice is sooooooo sexy

sorry pretty ladies my new type is mid women who sing great

@technicallydifficult they are really different I wouldnt say closely

I think you guys are gonna like my praise-song/hymn/prayer thing. its not perfect but itll be pretty great when I'm done. I need to find someone who is well versed in hindu scripture to make me a sanskrit version. its roughly made with an eventual nod to conversion into sanskrit, that is to say pretty much all of its concepts and important phrasemes as far as I know exist within hindu literature.

@Forestofenchantment wow I dont know what any of those are. I guess I know nothing about fashion in any language

I can barely find anything about the bhagas. the Vishnu purana barely speaks of them in my search of it

I wish I spoke hindi or Tamil or literally any indian language. would make finding inspiration for writing my hymn much easier. if I knew sanskrit it would be too easy.

@Forestofenchantment is there any traditional indian gender nuetral clothing

im just a jiva (who is Brahman) pursuing Brahman for Brahman by means of Brahman using Brahman as the sole tool

@technicallydifficult @Lars no I havent it seems weird. I'm gonna have some raspberries

@Lars I should compare to cherry pepsi I'm pretty sure I like dr pepper better than all of the other things I listed though

@patchuun never heard of fruitopia...

@risperdoll where do the pringles come in
