Daṇḍaka
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
Prince Daṇḍaka was one of the sons of the famous king Ikṣvāku. He by his sinful behavior exemplifies that how a person can render even a fertile land into a desert.
