    Topics Covered:
    1- Popular examples of bad naming of children with unintended consequences
    2- Why did you write the book 'Sunama'? What was the gap in the market that you wanted to address?
    3- What were the historical naming conventions in 'Bharatvarsha'
    4- How to name your child? & How not to name your child?
    5- Is the Anglicization of names a continuation of the historical Sanskritization of names in place of the localized Prakrit names to adopt an upwards mobile and high culture status?

Special thanks to Vishal Chaturvedi from The Indic Library and his team (Rishi Pathak, Rishabh Singh and Piyush Thakur) to help shoot this podcast and for giving us the opportunity to shoot in their studio.
    The Indic Explorer channel is a platform to explore different facets of Indic Culture and its relationship with modernity. Our flagship show will be The Indic Paradigm where we will speak to interesting people from different spheres of Indic cultural space that represent the finest creative and intellectual minds who represent our culture.
    Our endeavor is to reach out to culturally conscious younger people who are deeply tied to the values of the culture while still embracing modernity. We will soon be bringing interesting discussions on different topics ranging from culture, civilizational issues, history, geopolitics, philosophy, music, literature dance, art and architecture.

    These issues stem from the mindset that modern=western. I don't understand why Indian cultural attributes cannot be seen as modern.

      Problem is that these wannabe Western fools couldn't get western enough, and subsequently they started finding Sanskrit names cool, ultimately resulting in being a Muppet and embarrassment.
