India’s Lost Knowledge, Resistance, and the Cost of Forgetting History | Book Discussion

Описание: In this powerful discussion on the book “The Decline Of The Hindu Civilization : Lessons From The Past”, Shashi Ranjan Kumar presents groundbreaking research exposing the deliberate erasure of India's achievements while revealing how Bharat survived as the only pre-Bronze Age civilization still thriving today. Expert panelists including Amish Tripathi, Swapan Dasgupta, and Dr. Gautam Sen dissect the rise, decline, and extraordinary resistance of Indian civilisation, examining lost knowledge systems, scientific brilliance, institutional collapse, ideological warfare in academia and the real reasons behind centuries of defeat. From Chanakya’s statecraft to internal disunity, this conversation asks a hard but necessary questions on why reclaiming civilizational memory is critical for India's future.

Key Points:
•⁠ ⁠India's last thousand years represents humanity's greatest resistance story
•⁠ ⁠How academic gatekeepers control historical narratives
•⁠ ⁠Sanskrit's role as civilizational lifeblood and why it's under attack
•⁠ ⁠Western historiography deliberately fragments India's unified civilizational identity
