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.

Talātala

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Talātala is the fourth of the nether worlds. Maya, the chief engineer and architect of the demons, lives here. He is protected by Śiva himself. Terrible serpents known as the Krodhavaśa also live here. The more well-known among them are Kuhaka, Takṣaka, Kāliya and Suṣeṇa.
