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.

Cuḍālā

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia
(Redirected from Cudala)

By Swami Harshananda

Cuḍālā was the queen of Sikhidhvaja of Ujjayinī. Endowed with physical beauty and accomplishments in various arts and sciences, she spent a happy life with her husband for a few years.

The process of aging set her thinking about what is really permanent and unchanging in life. Through her own struggles she was able to attain spiritual enlightenment and also succeeded in teaching the same to her husband. The story is dealt with in detail in the Yogavāṣistha.[1] It intends to teach extreme form of Advaita Vedānta.
