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.

Dākṣāyaṇa

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia
(Redirected from Daksayana)

By Swami Harshananda

Dākṣāyaṇa is a Vedic sacrifice of the kāmya or desire-motivated type. It is a variant of the well-known Darśapurṇamāsa. Dakṣa is said to have performed it hence it is named accordingly.
