Subject: [world-vedic] Stalin's Daughter and Vedic Culture Date: Wed, 09 Oct 2002 09:18:14 -0000 From: "vrinparker" Reply-To: vediculture@yahoogroups.com To: vediculture@yahoogroups.com Svetlana Stalin and Hindu philosophy Civilizational traits of different races, their religious preferences, prejudices and cravings for riches are part of human complexities which go beyond any set doctrine. Even Stalin's younger daughter Svetlana took to astrology while deciding to marry an Indian Marxist ideologue, Brajesh Singh, elder brother of former External Affairs Minister Dinesh Singh. Their marriage was secretly solemnized in accordance with Hindu/Vedic rituals. Some years later when her husband passed away, she visited India to immerse her husband's ashes in the river Ganga. She was anxious to stay in India for a longer period having been attracted to Hindu philosophy. But the Russian embassy in Delhi would not consent to the extension of her visa, which was suspicious of her motives right from the start.
