Ātmanivedana
From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia
We examine the impact of the current colonial-racist discourse around Hindu Dharma on Indians across the world and prove that this discourse causes psychological effects similar to those caused by racism: shame, inferiority, embarrassment, identity confusion, assimilation, and a detachment from our cultural heritage. |
By Swami Harshananda
Ātmanivedana literally means offering oneself completely to him or total self-surrender.
The reference of Ātmanivedana is in Bhāgavata.[1]
