I am watching your all videos and you are very pertinent person to help us come out from scourge. You always helps to remain motivated . Your calm and smooth presentation is intuitive so pls continued and remember that I am always watching your all videos to improve my English knowledge .

Your work is adorable to learn and always keep it on.
Thank you so much for the book recommendation. I read A room of one's own and men's search for meaning after listening to you. I was ignorant of the literary world earlier. I take note of every book and author that you mention.
Thanks for the book recommendation, will definitely read it after i get free, but can someone tell me what were the reasons dipankar gupta pointed out to increased women representation in indian subcontinent vis-a-vis west
The traditional notions of carrying the patriarchy forward in case a male heir is not present, or is assassinated... along discourse is present in the book.
This book/ video isn't just a piece on gravitas of good literature but a guiding line for the major think tanks and consultants of Social Reform in INDIA!
Great Video ! Mistaken Modernity by Dipankar Gupta is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding India from a sociological perspective. The insightful analysis challenges the superficial markers of modernity in India, revealing how deep-rooted traditional values often undermine true progress. This book offers an exploration of the complexities of Indian society, highly recommended for those seeking a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the country's social fabric.
"deep-rooted traditional values often undermine true progress" Well then how do you explain the case of West Bengal and Kerala, the two most economically and morally bankrupt states with great infestation of religious fundamentalist terror, even after discarding Hindu nationalism and adopting Western secular humanism? The Hindutva state of Gujrat is far more "developed" than these two in your definition of development.
sorry for my request sir..but i am reading hesse's Glass bead game & facing very tough time while reading and understanding the allegory...could you pls make a dedicated vdo on that or could give me any piece of advice if possible. thanks!
That is Hesse's magnum opus. In order to read the magnum opus of a writer, Glass bead in case of Hesse or Brothers Karamazov in case of Dostoyevsky, you need to prepare yourself first by reading the precursor to their works, the themes that they have developed over time and all that. For Glass bead you need to be aware of the whole Hesse-Jungian tradition and the themes of self-exploration that both of these writers expounded. I am posting some links below that may help - Lastly, you can first read these books in this order to finally get to know the Glass Bead- Siddhartha Narcissus and Goldmund Peter Camazind Demian Steppenwolf The Glass Bead
I find poems, books of aphorisms, and Osho's books, very travel-friendly. You may try Imagist Poetry(Dover Publications), Peter Camazind by Hesse, Book of simple living , Rains in the mountains by R Bond, Path ke Pradeep by Osho.

Why should anyone agree with his definition of modernity?
What a book, solves so mny modern paradoxes for the ones blindly copying and imbibing the "American culture" w/o realising the stupidity of it all.
Added the book in my list. Thanks.

Hey will you also review the book "India, that is Bharat" by J Sai Deepak which is also related to this theme of modernity?
I don't think I have the time to read that in the near future.
