@@puneet7768 well I don't think it was a big drama. But it was a tiffle between them. Rajiv said something about his professional skills or something that offended him.
I fondly remember back in 2012-13 when I was still in college and had first discovered Rajiv Malhotra and his book and how it profoundly resonated with my fortunately based upbringing. And more importantly, how in the midst of everyone being what can today only be called 'woke', this man and his ideas found sanctuary in small limited circles of trusted friends and family members. Ek wo din tha, aur ek aaj ka din hai! In these 10 years, Indic thought has gained mainstream following and evolved an ecosystem of sorts that was so desperately needed.
This was one of the best podcasts I've heard in recent times. You have a battle hardened and scarred individual such as Rajiv Malhotra and a well read interviewer in Kushal Mehra.
We definitely agree that the book being different was a phenomenal book by Rajivji.Through the book we came to know that language is not just a tool of conversation but a tool of culture,swadharma,swarajya and swabhimaana.Rajivji we must pressurise BJP to Sanskritise English and Hindi for usage as official language by taking out official dictionaries by Govt of India.This serves many purposes like decolonizing language,correction of administrstive-judicial and legislative jargon.There is absolute necessity of opening of a Ministry for official languages of India.Which can serve as a tool of national integration by carrying out translation within Indian languages,construct central govt,courts and parliament websites in all official languages of India etc.Create state govt,judicial and admin websites in all official languages so that people of different states are well informed even though they don't know language of every state.
"We are all on the same side" as Guruji says - so let's please not blindly hate on the "decolonial" perspective - let's engage with each other and create a strong भारत. 🙏🏾 #noextremism
JSD has a point. I have read his vocabulary heavy first book and reading second one. I don't know about coloniality but it gave me a good perspective of what exactly happened in 1850s onwards, one sided attacks on Hindus without Hindus putting any good resistance. The whole non-violence trope and this where does this Owais bros "15 min police hata do, hinduon ko dekh lenge" comes from.
The history consolidation in jsd was the only right thing, because it did not contain any adulteration. The opinions and arguments of jsd with decoloniality is farce and tragic, and needs to be strongly fought against. And what is this, same side bs. Same side bs should hinder arguments and debates.
Hi Kushal, i ve been following your Twitter and videos for quite some time but now I really appreciate you even more after knowing that you took care of Rajivji when he had food poisoning. I'm coming from vaishnava background, having read the Bhagavad Purana and host of vaishnava literatures, like you , beging different "rewired my brain" too. Every one must read Being Different. Thanks for a wonderful interview with our real intellectual Jagad Guru. 🙏🙏🙏
My worldview changed in 2014 when I bought Breaking India and my manager in my IT company too had! We connected on Rajiv's groundbreaking book. As years go by, I realize how rare such instances have been in my circle - one of the ivy types told me during the mandir pran prathishta, 'ram was a misogynist' regurgitating Truschke perhaps. Made me realize 10 years later, there is so much to be done.
India must have its own Think Tank and write its own interpretation and History. Do not depend on outsiders to have your Interest, you have to direct and determine you own Interests. Outsiders will undermine your Truths and misguide your people. Be aware!
47:48 Post-colonialism - "taking forward the legacy of colonial narrative by the natives" Decoloniality - "Accounting the colonial baggage for the native cultural genocide, economic backwardness and lost opportunities"
*Forgive but not forget!* Trump talked about hindu genocide ,the genocide of more than 15 cr hindus(also artificially engineered famines) changed great indian's mindset with rigidity and in this structureless poor society was generated discriminatory clan system with English laws as in these 800 yrs there was death of old Indian institutions by invaders through burning universities or eating up funds ,which is totally against scriptures as they mention importance of every sect,when we read any texts in Indian language translation we will know every art & culture embraced unity in diversity in which everything has a deep symbolic spiritual meaning..in ancient India there is no single evidence of genocide due to internal conflicts whereas other parts were full of conflicts(for e.g. certain westerns used to torture their people in brazen bull)
1) Constructive Criticism promotes critical thinking , hard work and better arguments and decisions , whereas a lack of it leads to mediocrity . 2) Economic backing IS A HIGHLY IMPORTANT POINT BROUGHT UP HERE , and which can help to us develop our own thoughts as well as support such good thinkers as Rajiv sir .
I do this citation thing all the time when I talk on such topics, I cite Rajiv Malhotra on every topic and others like Sankrant Sanu, Shankar Saran and other, Rajiv Malhotra ji taught me (through his YT videos) he always said it is bad and I truely felt bad that our ppl are not giving him due credit thats why I cite for every small which I came to know from him On Being Different book I will say that it will, what Kushal says, will "rewire" those Hindus who longs for an answer of this question that what is meant by one being a Hindu or what is Hindu religion itself, it gave the answer to me, unlike Kushal who got words from that book for his disbelief I got for the "truth", the truth about the "Hindu religion" itself also it helped to find out that not all religion are same, which is the biggest problem Hindus face while dealing with Abrahamics, this book along with Joseph Atwill's book Ceasar's Messiah (it shows that Christianity was a creation of Roman Emperors of Flavian dynasty) I got to know that Hindu religion is the truth, so the book helps a Hindu to know what his traditions are and is not same like what others have it helps to protect a Hindu's "faith" in his religion and prevents him to fall for another, so this is the significance of the book
An interesting point raised in this talk is about Hinduism giving primacy to individualism. Is that true? If the starting order of Truth is oneness which then utters "Let me be many", how can an individual who is a later construct, a compound substance (of गुण, तन्मात्रा, 33 देवता etc), be the primary locus of Hinduism? When quest of मोक्ष or pursuit of संयास is to give up individual identities of society, जाति, etc, how can Hinduism that stresses on giving up even the identity of oneself as an individual be individualistic?
Kushal is stating that जाति & वर्ण template is outdated but funnily, both these words are used as equivalents 😂. वर्ण itself comes from गुण with predominance of सत्व in a ब्राह्मण and of तमस् in शूद्र. त्रिगुण is a building block of Hinduism and since it can never be given up and at best, its influence can be controlled, वर्ण is too fundamental an idea for Hinduism. And the core drive of Hinduism for all "individuals" is to take on either an identity where सत्व is dominant or become beyond गुण - which then again becomes a collective (like, for eg., all ऋषि living in ब्रह्मलोक or नैमिशारण्य). With all humility and my personal liking for Kushal, my request is for Kushal to dive deeper into the essence of Hinduism to see a third alternative beyond the binary of individualism or groupism as he is diving all ideologies.
"Individualism" is not the locus of सनातन. Neither is group identity seen as problematic. Whether individual or जाति are aligned to धर्म is the core. And धर्म itself is driven by dominant गुण innate to such an individual apart from देश & काल. While वर्ण is not driven by family one is born to, one's कर्म determines one's वर्ण. All this is basic सनातन 101 - this is the point I was making. आशा करता हूँ यह बात सीधा है 😊🙏
You're focussing on wrong age. Whatever you're explaining is something you do after sanyasa. But whereas you've to go through societal aspects like brahmacharya, grihastha, vanaprastha. These come under moral code of conduct and what not. So the rules are different!
Don't fight over Sai Deepak or Rajiv Malhotra. Your only enemy is the one that sits at your land and tells you to get out of the land which you have and when you refuse you are mercilessly killed.
Being different taught most of people to be confident for the difference. As Indian space pre 2010 was highly dominated by secularists of one sided sameness and india born confused desi (opposite of abcd).

I request Rajivji considering a program at Ashoka abd Krea so that the young minds there could be pre warned about the kind of biased and motivated anti India content they are being exposed and can have a meaningful dialogue with theur fraternity if they are willing to participate in open dialogue.
When diversity surveys are done in US multinational to check who are Brahmin and who is not--why would we be answering--I may have been born a Brahmin but I never adopted any rituals or thinking in that narrow an outlook. Best way to stop this nonsense. I am casteless.
Rajiv ji is top notch intellectual. I was also a Dawkinian/Hitchens type Atheist. However, I must say that Dawkins or Hitchens never actually singled out Indian philosophies because they don’t know much about it. We put this Abrahamic lens on ourselves. Dawkins clearly says that he is a cultural Christian. But now Advaita Vedanta is tattooed on my arm. This philosophy takes the cake for me in terms of understanding oneself. But if your definition of a God is Abrahamic then I am still an Atheist. The definitions do matter.
If judges can interpret a single article in ciantitution in different ways and pass judgements and amend those in future ...just by reading books written by Sai deepak you don't get the entire thing ....talk to him invite him on your podcast and have a debate that might help each one of you .....until you have a direct conversation it's doesn tmatter !!
Kushal keeps talking about objectivity while disagreeing with post-colonialism, post-modernism and even decoloniality. But can't subjectivities of societies have any say in the discourse and the truth can be different for societies based on their histories and their indigenous subjectivities? Decoloniality understands that making universal standards shouldn't be imposed on indigenous people and i don't think there is anything wrong in that. If you want to challenge these discourses and different frameworks or views why not invite Sai Deepak for a debate on decoloniality. You have previously had conversations with Sai but suddenly he stopped coming on the podcast.
india me har tarike ka party hai. indian can achive the impossible on regular basis . par india me ek chiz nahi hai, gora admi ke samne sar ucha karke khara rakhne ka takat. bahar ka gora jaise hi ake bolga, wo party usko le legi, leadership gore ka ho jaiga. gore ke samne jhukne me indian ko proud fil hota hai.
Rajiv g is a very intelligent but i don't know why he likes ambedkar.... he quotes ambedkar when he dislikes Islam and Christianity but never tells what ambedkar talked about Hinduism and how he abused hinduism
Snakes in Ganga has become for Hindu Brahmin what Saitanik Verses is for Muslims. With a couple of differences like Hindus don't have outfits don't have terrorist outfits which will give death threats but only abuse on social media and matter didn't spread like wild fire . But this has proved one important point and that is Hindus do have a category which is very intolerant and that too educated unlike Muslims and this community existed since the time of Charwak who was said to be burnt alive.
What I want to know is that people like Rajiv ji are working for the betterment of India but they have US citizenship. Why can't they keep Indian passports and use a green card if required? Once you are a US citizen, it is your duty to work for the US as you have made an oath of allegiance to the US.
At 51:50 - are both RM and KM talking about the same thing? I got the impression RM is referring to the woke social justice crowd when observing you cannot actually have social justice in the framework the (the woke group) is functioning within and promoting while KM is referring to the decoloniality group or others who recognise groups also as a legitimate unit and not fixated on the individual as the only legitimate unit like KM is.
Haha yeah Rajivji is talking about liberals and Kushal is trying to project that onto Hindu thinkers. Clever guy Kushal. I think Rajivji realized the manipulation that he is being pitted against Hindu thinkers
kushal seems ashamed of his lower caste position relative to an accomplished thinker like rajiv. kushal is talking loudly and dropping names and theories to make himself feel better about his overall lower stature. hahahahahaha.. he seems annoyed that rajiv keeps mentioning how he was a little merchandise hustler in the past.. hahahahahahahaha can't stop laughing.. hahaha
When you don't understand the discourse and the aren't read enough that's your personal issue .. and you're trying to cope with your illiteracy by trying to act as if kushal is "low caste" because he helped Rajiv Malhotra ... Lmao keep coping
@thisisanewusername Not just that. He was working in villages, and getting toilets installed. He was also a server for years serving food with his friends to anyone that needs it every week. There is more too - but there is more for you to laugh at and look down upon.
Oversimplifying and opining with a half digested idea is quite dangerous and the guy kushal might be doing so, just in the guise of sounding contemporary and urbane. It is poor analysis to consider ONLY a part of a position as an argument that highlights your own world view and just throw away the other parts. He is actually guilty of doing the same thing in his own analysis of varna and jaati that he complains that Harvard is doing by building a biased narrative with selective understanding. He glosses over the other aspects as if it is trivial. Varna/Jaati are considered a central results of Karma phala. Our Karma decide : Jaati , aayu and bhoga. To trivialize jaati and varna is to say that birth is accidental and previous janma has no existence or bearing on it. Now where does birth become accidental --- yeah, in the Abrahamanic systems !! lol Also he conveniently glosses over the fact that Varna is not present at the cost of Swadharma because if it was collectivism over Swadharma then Mahabharata wouldn't have been fought as all were Kshatriyas. My two cents here, english speaking urbane population shouldn't rush after everything english before taking time out to KNOW before opining. I respect Rajivji a lot and he himself always asks people to read more and understand and not be just a biosterous rabble rousing group !
"Even my disbelief is Indian". Great 👍
Rajivji is so fond of youngsters like Kushal, Ajeet Bharti, Ankur Arya, etc. I wish I had a mentor like him.
Kushal uncle hai
Kushal isn't a youngster.
He said he will come again for a workshop in feb ...we may have a chance of making him as our mentor
😂😂 Kushal.. youngster
Kushal is a youngster? He is almost as bald as I am, and much greyer than I., and I AM 77 years old..

Won't happen. Kushal completely disagrees with j sai deepak. Also, Rajiv and j sai deepak don't like each other. They've fought before in the past

What a amazing episode! I guess it's natural when the guest is such a great man!
This is by far the best discussion on this book so far...
Being different changed my perspective. It will be one of the important books if India's culture ever undergoes a renaissance.
Fantastic. In person interviews are just fantastic rather than zoom calls
Excellent, informative discussion exposing Woke faultlines

An interesting point raised in this talk is about Hinduism giving primacy to individualism. Is that true? If the starting order of Truth is oneness which then utters "Let me be many", how can an individual who is a later construct, a compound substance (of गुण, तन्मात्रा, 33 देवता etc), be the primary locus of Hinduism? When quest of मोक्ष or pursuit of संयास is to give up individual identities of society, जाति, etc, how can Hinduism that stresses on giving up even the identity of oneself as an individual be individualistic?
Kushal is stating that जाति & वर्ण template is outdated but funnily, both these words are used as equivalents 😂. वर्ण itself comes from गुण with predominance of सत्व in a ब्राह्मण and of तमस् in शूद्र. त्रिगुण is a building block of Hinduism and since it can never be given up and at best, its influence can be controlled, वर्ण is too fundamental an idea for Hinduism. And the core drive of Hinduism for all "individuals" is to take on either an identity where सत्व is dominant or become beyond गुण - which then again becomes a collective (like, for eg., all ऋषि living in ब्रह्मलोक or नैमिशारण्य). With all humility and my personal liking for Kushal, my request is for Kushal to dive deeper into the essence of Hinduism to see a third alternative beyond the binary of individualism or groupism as he is diving all ideologies.
"Individualism" is not the locus of सनातन. Neither is group identity seen as problematic. Whether individual or जाति are aligned to धर्म is the core.

ye firauti ka hi paisa hai.
kushal seems ashamed of his lower caste position relative to an accomplished thinker like rajiv. kushal is talking loudly and dropping names and theories to make himself feel better about his overall lower stature. hahahahahaha.. he seems annoyed that rajiv keeps mentioning how he was a little merchandise hustler in the past.. hahahahahahahaha can't stop laughing.. hahaha
When you don't understand the discourse and the aren't read enough that's your personal issue .. and you're trying to cope with your illiteracy by trying to act as if kushal is "low caste" because he helped Rajiv Malhotra ... Lmao keep coping
Even if he is low caste . Why is that burning your ass ?
What is your problem? Is it stupidity or Ignorance?
@@bababistril it was a metaphor.. you sound triggered.. btw kushal isn't some great scholar lol you guys are on his nutz and it's embarrassing
@@ShwetabhSenpai triggered
man just interview j saideepak instead of dissing Indic mindset.
little kushal was rajiv malhotra's little water carrier peon hahahahaha carrying his books and selling merchandise.. hahahaha
What's funny in that ? He was doing his kartavya towards someone he admires and respects.. why laugh at that ?
@@bababistril Come on, don't you get it? Water carrier is a Western construct!!
@thisisanewusername
Not just that. He was working in villages, and getting toilets installed. He was also a server for years serving food with his friends to anyone that needs it every week. There is more too - but there is more for you to laugh at and look down upon.
@@bababistril kushal talks like he's a scholar but rajiv put him in his place by reminding him how he used to be rajiv's little slave hahahaha
@@samsm9517 which proves my point that kushal started like a little slave and now he thinks he's a top scholar lmao
Great content. Also subscribed to Rajiv jis channel.
Oversimplifying and opining with a half digested idea is quite dangerous and the guy kushal might be doing so, just in the guise of sounding contemporary and urbane. It is poor analysis to consider ONLY a part of a position as an argument that highlights your own world view and just throw away the other parts. He is actually guilty of doing the same thing in his own analysis of varna and jaati that he complains that Harvard is doing by building a biased narrative with selective understanding. He glosses over the other aspects as if it is trivial.
Varna/Jaati are considered a central results of Karma phala. Our Karma decide : Jaati , aayu and bhoga. To trivialize jaati and varna is to say that birth is accidental and previous janma has no existence or bearing on it. Now where does birth become accidental --- yeah, in the Abrahamanic systems !! lol
Also he conveniently glosses over the fact that Varna is not present at the cost of Swadharma because if it was collectivism over Swadharma then Mahabharata wouldn't have been fought as all were Kshatriyas.
My two cents here, english speaking urbane population shouldn't rush after everything english before taking time out to KNOW before opining.
I respect Rajivji a lot and he himself always asks people to read more and understand and not be just a biosterous rabble rousing group !
