7:02.....India must avoid the blunders made in the west. India must record and make a full encylopedia of all these ancient things that are used to this day! in Europe they must dig for this stuff. so much was lost. no one really knows how a real Druidic ceremony was. the words gone forever. and unique gold work techniques are lost as well. but some of the styles survive.
