False Potrayal Of Hinduism/hindu Religion

[dhu]

In a few words, in this piece the hack and aryanist Romila Thaparshe tries to appropriate the anti-colonial discourse away from the natives, she conflates colonial and monotheist problematizations of the epic with the native diversity of the epic (which was never a problem), she tries to insinuate that the Hindus are alienated from their traditions, and she fragments the narratives into parts for demeaning the coherence of the whole (e.g., isolated points about the birth of Sita in the Indonesian version).
