Here are some resourceful Hinduism Links:
- Bawa 'N Dinesh - This is a blog written by two followers of Sri Ravi Shankar, the founder of the Art of Living organization. I enjoy reading it sometimes when I feel like I'm losing touch with the values I want to keep. It can be a bit tedious, but even skimming this page will give you a sense of optimism and fulfillment.
- The Mahabharat - The longest (and probably most awesome) epic in Indian history, is on Youtube (and Hulu) in the form of a television series that aired a decade ago. This is my favorite episode, and you will soon see why. Even if you can't really understand the language, it is still fun to watch.
- The Chanakya Series - This is a really inspiring and a very well made series on the greatest freedom fighter and economist of all time. Really, this character is so awesome that sometimes you feel like he should come back now!
