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

The story of the king Nala and his wife Damayanti is well-known in the romantic literature. After banishment from his kingdom, Nala retired to a forest and deserted Damayantī there. King Nala was bitten by a cobra in his sojourns and was disfigured. He then changed his name to Bāhuka and lived incognito for some time before regaining his kingdom.
