In Episode 47 of The Hindu Parenting Podcast, we talk about the Panchatantra with Dr. M. V. Vishwanath, Sanskrit scholar and renowned speaker.
The tales of the Panchatantra have always been of special interest to children, but did you know that its actual purpose and message is deeply embedded within the tales?
The Panchatantra has travelled far and wide from the place of its origin, Bharat (India). It has unfortunately been relegated to the genre of kiddie literature in modern India, but the Panchatantra is actually profound and visionary in its scope.
Listen to the podcast to find out the true meaning behind the text!
Dr. Viswanath is a reputed scholar with three M.A. degrees and a PhD in Sanskrit from Benaras Hindu University, Varanasi. His research areas include Sanskrit literature, Arthashastra and Sankhya philosophy.
He also delivers various sessions on Bhagavadgita, Vedanta, Yoga and Upanishads for many Yoga schools both online and offline.
