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.

Neo-Vedānta

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Works on Prasthānatraya[edit]

Vedānta is the philosophy of the Prasthānatraya. It has the three basic works:

  1. The Upaniṣads
  2. The Brahmasutras
  3. The Bhagavadgītā

Neo-Vedanta Definition[edit]

These works have branched off into several sub-systems. The teachings of Rāmakṛṣṇa and Vivekānanda have tried to synthesize these systems into one coherent philosophy. This is generally called as ‘Neo-Vedānta’.
