Colonial Discourse and the Suffering of Indian American Children Book Cover.webp
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.

Śriharsa

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Śriharṣa is one of the few important dialecticians of Advaita Vedānta. He probably lived during the middle part of the 12th century A. D. in the court of the king Jayacandra of Kanyākubja.[1] His two well known works are:

  1. Naiṣadhacarita, a great poetical work describing the story of Nala and Damayantī
  2. Khandana-khanda-khādya, a highly polemical work attacking the Nyāya school of philosophy

Nine more works like Arṇava-Varaṇa, Vijaya-praśasti and īśvarābhisandhi are also attributed to him.
