Deconstructing Devdutt Pattanaik
The erudite Nityanand Mishra deconstructs the false narratives peddled by Devdutt Pattanaik  in a conversation with Rajiv Malhotra. Deeply disturbing, it raises a plethora of problematic issues.  Context matters. Delinking and decontextualising narratives from the Dharmic eco system renders our traditions and heritage vulnerable to cultural hijacks, balkanisation and  homogenisation
