A lot of Roma faces are similar with the ones of the Hindus. In the body language, soul or spirit, those are the things that are recognized as elements of expression which are typical for the Roma. When are the Roma not considered as foreigners?
When do the different expressions start to appear in the "game" of nature and culture, which never stops? Does language change before the body language, soul and spirit? These and many other questions are waiting to be answered. The statements of many Roma also demand an answer: "For the first time, the feeling of being a foreigner disappeared when I set foot on Indian soil!" When Indian television reporters asked some Roma how they felt in Chandigarh, they began to choke with tears and replied: "I am no longer a stranger!"
When and how was the soul of this “stranger” imprisoned? It is quite certain that this happened after the exodus, which happened a thousand years ago, an exodus who “protected” the borders of every country.
This phenomena, which several philosophers noticed at those who feel like foreigners “eternal foreigners”, the Jews and the Roma, gained due to a century of stigmatization. That is how, after a thousand years, the Roma have accepted their “mother”, India. Amari daj si djivdi! (“Our mother is still alive!”).
