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.

Romapāda

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Romapāda is also known as Lomapāda. He was a king of Candravanśa or lunar dynasty. He was a good friend of Daśaratha, the king of Ayodhyā. He is said to have adopted Sāntā, the daughter of Daśaratha as his daughter and later married her to the sage Rṣyaśṛṅga.

Once there was a terrible famine in his kingdom. He then managed to bring the sage to his capital. As soon as the sage entered his kingdom there was heavy rain.[1][2]
