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.

Skambha

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

The Atharvaveda Samhitā[1] uses the word skambha to indicate the Highest Being beyond even Brahmā. Literally it means the One who is the support and basis of the whole universe.
