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.

Purusaprayatna

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Purusaprayatna literally means Self-effort.

It is believed that even prārabdha karma can be overcome by purṣaprayatna.
