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.

Sahasraliñga

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Sahasraliñga literally means ‘thousand liñgas’.

Śivaliṅgas or emblems of Śiva are sculptured in several ways. One such is the sahasraliṅga. On the Rudrabhāga or the pujābhāga are carved 1000 emblems by the incision of parallel horizontal and vertical lines and by changing the edges of the resultant criss-cross sections.
