In the tenth episode of Satya Samvad, Dr. Mrittunjoy Guha Majumdar interacts with Dr. Donca Vianu about the attempts by Wokeist new-age spiritual speakers like Josh Schrei to appropriate and misproject Dharmic ideas and elements, especially in the West. Understanding Dharma is often multidimensional, and therefore, within Dharmic traditions, the importance of a guru for guidance cannot be understated. A good guru selflessly helps advance the spiritual development of the disciple. However, in today's world, there has been the rise and popularity of those who mislead the masses for their own popularity and relevance, by looking at Dharma through a wokeist lens. Everyone from Sri Krishna to Mata Sita to incidents like the Nishad family dying in the Lashagriha incident in the Mahabharata are brought into question or outright criticized, in what seems like a sustained attack on the very foundations of our civilizational heritage, often with brazen lies, continuing the tradition of anachronism of colonial-era Indologists and mythologists.
