>>19949675esoterisist here, I just wish to add some facts to your repertoire. To the religious aspect. You see a lot of the behavior from the indians stems from the aghori with their non dualism ideology. They see shit, filth and dirt and go like "dont feel disgust with it, its part of god like everything else is". Pic related explains it well.
So the aghorian influence perverted the ancient works that had no mention of cow dung worship or filth worship, this whole garbage came with a perversion of the original scriptures by the dravindians. The aghori's are batshit insane, if you actually read about them, their habits and behaviors, their rituals, you would consider them to be prime #1 insane lunatics in this world. Tho religious lunatics. They go so far beyond that you consider normal with atheistic or christian moral standards...Most indians also do not worship Krishna, but one of the many demi gods.
