Upclose with Kausik Gangopadhyay: How social science theories lead to conflict and violence

[@rush-me]

Such a profound way to put it: "Purpose of life is not pursuit of happiness".........for sustainable future purpose of life should be based on pursuit of understanding self. Rajarshi Nandy: Even from spiritual perspective, 99% percent of people do not have a purpose in life, a majority of them are just living by reacting to past karma threads and in that process creating other karmic threads.

This podcast series is none like other on KZbin! Every single episode has great content that makes you think about things deeply! Thank-you Ashish bhai 🙏 Helps people like to me fight western bullshit at university of South Australia. I had a good debate with my tutor last week as to why you can’t apply western theories to understand our experiences!

Abhijit Iyer mitra continued to lie that Bramhins were super rich nd all ,listen to this academic from IIM at 48mins... rather than crypto wokes within so called right,whose only academic credentials is Ba from IGNOU nd sophisticated English nd contacts within Bjp nd lutyen circle

[@sachithrao6353]

Brahmin gandhu face the truth. This guy is castiest fuck website

[@vivekiyer2203]

Thanks for bringing the truth out. Sure AIM is intelligent but he openly overplays the real history of brahmins unabashedly.

The day we start listening to gays for knowledge on culture was the day we started losing as a society.

[@satendrathakur1713]

Probably the only podcast worth watching on this side of the internet. No clickbaits. Just quality stuff. Will read the book soon.

[@superatanu7]

[@sauvikpaul6980]

An eye-opening discussion. We need to pursue modernisation in our dharmic way, not westernization!

[@akbrahma7739]

Going to the roots of the problem

[@unknownartist8543]

One's again amazing podcast on upword

[@vegetaboost6373]

bhai.. aisa kya amazing laga tumko.. This guy gave nothing of substance and he even wrongly quoted Gramsci and micro-aggression. He is just an andhbhakt who got a platform!! lol

[@darkprince2490]

@@vegetaboost6373 lol you cannot even understand a basic conversation and you purport to understand a complex and ancient society like bharata. "microaggressions" was just used as a current example here. He said nothing about applicability in the west - which may or may not be real. You can even see abrahamists in bharata use microaggressions or daily provocations against hindus/unconverted - make the heathens' lives miserable so that they convert or flee. Western interference in bharata also started long before gramsci. artificial theories like AIT are well known to have created the artificial south north divide which did not exist before. same with "caste system" where feudalism of european church/state was falsely mapped onto bharata.

[@AutoKay]

Can IIMs research about an Economic theory based on Jati Varna system? And what would happen if we follow that. My unanswered concern is - what happens to R&D

[@atmakurmuraliKrishna]

Order Order I am ordering the book Thanks

[@AnaBiswaz]

Enlightening discussion. Great explanation to a lot of things a lot of us wonder about, Ashish asked some great questions making the while discourse very wholesome.

[@ksquare1466]

29:32 To the host- Please don't try to put words in the mouth of the guest. He is being quite clear and you are trying to interpret it the way you would like to.

[@aviral5124]

Great duscussion....keep up the good work 👍

[@Musaafir-ln6feet]

Are there any plan to discuss the works of Nicholas Dirks.

[@darkprince2490]

Dirks just copies Balagangadhara.

[@learn_ina_flash]

Great video

[@इन्द्रजाल]

Wonderful talk! Hoping to read the book soon. Question: At a certain level, aren’t the two central ideas of LTSE, linear progression and otherizarion, similar to the ideas of History-centrism and Exclusivity that have been presented by Rajiv Malhotra jī?

[@saitandale8482]

[@psnatarajan6131]

Political religion I define is that religion which directs its adherents that this religion cannot be practiced unless the political power resides with them. Judaism and Islam are the full political religions. The Jewish political symbol is David and his kingdom while for the Muslims it is Mohammad and his caliphs whose aim is to establish the universal Muslim state as caliphate all over the world. Zoroastrianism was a semi-political religion as it was the state religion pf Achaemenids and Sassanids as is the Christianity which became the state religion of Roman Empire after Constatine and suppressed the pagan religiosity. Primitive religion which is universally a sanatan religion of which Hinduism is the most evolved branch as it appeared in India is innately non-political.
