Wow, my day has been made. Best thing to happen to me in months!

[@h1g2a3r4]

Many Thanks to the RSS and BJP for promoting an Indian education and rejection of a western left lenient that have contributed to alienate Indian culture at every level.

[@AbhishekSharma-mi6zo]

Such prolific persons these men!!

[@raunaqbedi2852]

Abhishek Sharma yeah and the two shlokas with their translation by the ancient muni badrihari recited by bibek debroy is outstanding

[@lionelmohamed6577]

[@madhavnityanandi5380]

Solution: INTELLECTUAL DECOLONIZATION. Weed out all traces of mughal & british from the constitution, school textbooks, entertainment, literature, culture, art, cuisine, faith, politics, linguistics, law and everyone's hearts. Jay Ma Bharat!

[@34kaushik]

Amish ji n Bibek ji have appeared together in JLF, PLF and now in this event. They are my favourite duo to listen to and mightily inspired by both of them and have now set myself the goal of learning Sanskrit and translating at least one manuscript under the National Manuscript Mission.

[@anabilaich5951]

Amish ji nice touch with beheading part. Proud to be a hindu where everybody has the freedom and right to revolve in their own orbits not like some other religion where you enforce your thought on people

[@jasodhasharma]

Amazing conversation. I like it when the two speakers can add or disagree with logic and not with "what they believe".

[@Jujupees]

Great that you uploaded this in HD

[@mallianumula]

yes, many Oral communicated knowledge was gone and a little bit left part also going away. my father knows very interesting mathematical calculations on a few subjects like Astrology, knowing Water levels in-ground, some kind of mental diseases and a few other things. its pure science, he never said that is a miracle. his calculation results are 90% accurate. he uses to apply those only when needs, not always, not for business and not for money. do not know where he learns, he never said that, and he did not pass that knowledge to my any of the family member. he uses to say, if you take that path, you have to be in a certain way and you also face problems. so he decided not to pass that to us. I saw many things in his life, he is a great person. he is no longer now, at that time, I am not aggressive on that wealth, now I am fascinated by all this knowledge but he is no more. if he is there sure I might have taken up from him. problem is our politics went to much wrong, they thought all these things are myths not seen as a science. after independence, we might have spent enormous efforts to take this knowledge preserve

[@ThirdEye453]

Do we even need a discussion on this?? Of course, just add it...

[@neetipandey3541]

We should start a #tag to include ancient scriptures like Gita in our school curriculum. If this is not possible in modi government's tenure then it will never be a reality.

[@RaghavSubramani123]

I just wish the moderator would just shut the hell up and let the speakers finish their point. Countless interruptions!!

[@Abhishekaditya91]

Exactly 😂

[@msntito7]

@41:40 what (and why) discussion was censored? Is censoring that part not counter to the idea of "free discussion" that the panelist highlight later?

[@nabeelbhattacharya2633]

27:00 Syama Shastri translated Kautilya Arthashastra in 1905

[@arunade1168]

It seems, Mr. Debroy is not aware of the Actual Timeline of Ramayana & Mahabharat. Must follow Mr. Nilesh Oak.

[@seemasunil9]

Great discussion.

[@vinukrishnannair]

Our kids should learn our real history of Bharat....

[@arkochatterjee5221]

Bibek Debory is the IRL Sidhu Jehta. People who have read stories of Feluda know what I am talking about

[@adhipmitra]

Marvellous

[@harihara1151]

Take the Bhavan journal version of epicic for the start

[@sanatanidotnetdharmaplatfo3991]

[@a.srivastava944]

Epics should be read and studied by self, not in classrooms, as besides history those are sacred

[@nabeelbhattacharya2633]

27.30 12th century manuscript on ChoraShastra

Our history first need to change, please Modi government do it.

[@achalkhare3962]

Our History doesn't need to be changed, but rather our History books must be revamped and our original history must be highlighted, taught and made part of our country's narrative.

[@sadenb]

Government . Please do translate on war footing.

[@remsorian3]
