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.

Tarakayoga

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

By Swami Harshananda

Just as one burning lamp can light another lamp similarly a perfect guru[1] can pass on his spiritual power to a qualified or worthy disciple through a touch. This is called Tārakayoga. It is also called śaktipāta or bequeathing spiritual power.
