Tales And Texts

Did you know that some Indian temples still have the horrific Devadasi culture - where women are exploited in the name of religion? I review a book that explores this practice in "modern" India.

Tales And Texts

I love both the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. But I have a special soft spot for the latter - the Mahabharata - because of the many human emotions and experiences it showcases. Which Itihasa do you love more? Vote and do let me know why in the comments. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
