I just realized there is no exact equivalent word for "empathy" in Hindi. Or any Indian language. Explains a lot, doesn't it. The closest one is the Sanskrit "samvedana" which is very close to empathy but not quite and is not broadly used. This concept of feeling/sharing/understanding someone else's pain, trauma and suffering is very alien to our culture. Because our culture is basically the caste system. And caste system actually actively *disincentivizes* empathy. We have words for kindness, compassion, love, charity, generosity, but not for empathy. Frankly, many older cultures don't understand and define empathy. Not just ours. It's an highly evolved concept, an high evolved word. And we we are a highly unevolved, backward culture.





Nobody has, will, or can make an “accurate” Ramayana. An accurate Ramayana true to Valmiki would hurt sentiments left, right, and center.

राजस्थान के अजमेर में मार्बल पॉलिशिंग और कटिंग के समय निकलने वाली स्लरी से यहां स्नो यार्ड बनाया गया है, जिसे देखने दूर-दूर से लोग यहां आ रहे हैं. कई लोगों ने तो इसे मिनी स्विट्ज़रलैंड का नाम तक दे दिया है. रिपोर्ट: मोहर सिंह मीणा कैमरा और ड्रोन क्रेडिटः राजू गोदारा
