Question

Sanskrit is called mother of all languages.

Most languahes use script of Sanskrit, which is Devanagari.
But answer is not Sanskrit.
IT IS HINDI !!!!!
Hindi is having almost 48 dialects.

Mickey Mouse and Goofy characters of Mickey Mouse series are always seen wearing white gloves on their paws.
Ever wondered why ???
In the early days of animation, cartoons are not created with computer graphics.
Each frame required a separate sketch.
Rendering the curves, bends and structure of different body parts was challenging specially hands.
That's why, in those days animation featured rounded body corners instead of pointed ones.
Initially cartoons were in black and white.
To simplify the design of hands, white gloves become a common feature.
Creating 5 fingures proved complicated. This lead to the decision of reducing number of fingures.
Even today, some cartoon characters seen wearing gloves !!!

This is a number sequence puzzle. We must find out the next number of the sequence.
Question
2 , 6 , 12 , 20 , 30 , ???
Answer
If we look at the numbers , we can come to know that it follows a certain pattern.
That pattern is ----
6 - 2 = 4
12 - 6 = 6
20 - 12 = 8
30 - 20 = 10
By looking at above pattern,
The differences go up by 2 each time.
Following the same pattern, the next difference must be 12 ....
We can write it as ,
30 + 12 = 42
Hence, completed sequence is .......
2 , 6 , 12 , 20 , 30, 42

Sandalwood holds a sacred position in Indian traditions.
It is applied as symbol of purity, spiritual connection and devotion.
Beyond its spiritual role, it is valued for its cooling and healing properties.
Sandalwood paste is considered to be one of the purest offerings to God.
