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.

Paramātman

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Paramātman literally means ‘the Supreme Self’.

If each of the individual souls is called ‘jīvātman’, God is called Paramātman, which is opposite to him. Paramātman is the same as Brahman.
