They were way ahead of there time, unlike them not a single indian empire focused much on art & literature except guptas, classical and medieval era indian sculptures are the only ones that come near them, their aesthetics were perfect, not even later europeans were able to match them...

I never understood why people hype mauryans so much, that empire lacks soul, only reason our chutiya government praise them is cuz they want buddhist/bhimta votes

Their sculptors are ugly

Yeah Greeks were more interested in depicting ideal "human" life even on their gods. Indians were moreinto divine essence, so who cares if God has sixpack it's still God.
