Rebutting The Latest Woke Attack On Hindu Universalism By Western Academia

The recent article titled, The neocolonial futurism of US Hindutva, by Dheepa Sundaram, goes to show how much Western academia is being troubled by the book, Snakes in the Ganga, recently published along with my co-author Vijaya Viswanathan.

Besides the factual errors Sundaram makes while naming me as her target, there are more serious issues concerning the manner in which it has been framed using categories of Western Universalism.

Western Universalism is the conscious and unconscious use of Western history, philosophy and social experience as the template presumed to speak for all of humanity.

A complete discussion on the use of such colonial categories is beyond the scope of this brief response, and I have written extensively on that subject before. I shall limit myself here to a few obvious blind spots in Sundaram’s piece.
