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.

Talk:Cause of Rebirth:Divine or Saintly Command

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Vishal Agarwal


The fifth is the command of a saint or Bhagavān to an ātmā to be reborn for a specific purpose. At the command of Bhagavān, saints take upon a physical form relinquishing their state of Moksha so that they can do good to humanity suffering in this Samsāra. For example, a Rishi Apantaratamas was born at the Divine command several thousand years ago to reveal the Vedas when they had been lost. Rishi Sanatkumāra was likewise reborn as Skanda.
