  5. Why the way we talk about Hinduism needs to change

    Why the way we talk about Hinduism needs to change

    A special crossover episode from our sibling show All About Hinduism: One of the underlying themes in the first series of episodes of All About Hinduism is that this spiritual tradition is often misunderstood by those people outside of it. Some of this misunderstanding is basic exposure to Hinduism and Hindus. But sometimes, we Hindus ourselves are unwittingly to blame. If we want non-Hindus to better understand Hinduism and we want to ourselves better understand Hinduism, the way in which we talk about Hinduism needs to change.  Missed the first series of episodes of All About Hinduism?

    Think you know all about Ambedkar? Think again. | Pankaj Jain

Less known is how many of his views on hot button political issues in India today align far more with those of so-called Hindu nationalists than his contemporary supporters would have you believe. In this episode we speak with Dr Pankaj Jain about the unknown Ambedkar. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
