The White Hindu: Introduction
http://whitehindu.blogspot.com/2009/12/introduction.html
A life of cultural identity confusion. The White Hindu has moved. The White Hindu has moved! This blog is no longer updated, but Ambaa is still writing The White Hindu every weekday at Patheos. Come visit at h ttp:/ www.patheos.com/blogs/whitehindu. Wednesday, December 9, 2009. On the other hand, perhaps the struggle that a particular person is born to deal with is the divide between culture and religion; the sense that she was meant to practice a religion that was not handed to her by her ancestors.

The White Hindu: More on Labels

A life of cultural identity confusion. The White Hindu has moved. The White Hindu has moved! This blog is no longer updated, but Ambaa is still writing The White Hindu every weekday at Patheos. Come visit at h ttp:/ www.patheos.com/blogs/whitehindu. Thursday, August 26, 2010. I was thinking that the previous post I wrote on labels (as in labeling myself as a Hindu) was too brief and it is a topic worth looking at again. We should just be. Growing up, I didn't have an easy answer when people asked about m...

Turning 26…and reminiscing about being 19 →. January 29, 2012 · 11:48 AM. Healing and Understanding Cultural Difference within our Relationships. Addressed the fact that there are some cultural differences between me and L which I should probably try to get my head around. We’re onto something here folks! Stress caused me to isolate myself last year. This year is all about health, healing and connecting with others. Filed under Cultural Difference. Turning 26…and reminiscing about being 19 →. It’s ...

Colonial Fantasy, Sexual Desire and Saving the Exotic Dark Other (aka Why Are You With This Guy?) | taswin12

Western Privilege and Interracial Relationships. Revised About Page →. May 3, 2011 · 3:04 PM. Colonial Fantasy, Sexual Desire and Saving the Exotic Dark Other (aka Why Are You With This Guy? Thankfully, ALL the people he referred to were male and white. In fact, the entire article was about white male sexual desire and how it is indulged through colonial relations and the western missionary/saviour complex. Ummm…wrong, according to my therapist. To backtrack slightly, L and I are having some pretty major...

How Do You Get a Guy to Dance? I Should Have Lied →. June 5, 2011 · 11:30 PM. My mum is actively anti my relationship with L, a relationship which has been going for well over 3 years now. She wasn’t always like this. When I first told her about him, her reaction was generally positive. Or more accurately, it wasn’t overtly negative. She did ask Is he Muslim? Because it makes total sense to discriminate against L on the basis that he’ll be discriminated against by others…). Filed under Cultural Difference.

Woman, Femininity and Feminism. Confessions and Questions of a New Blogger →. August 1, 2011 · 11:35 AM. You are in Australia yaar, why don’t you get with a white girl? Ok, so maybe the Indian guy on the bus didn’t put it that bluntly to L. But he did put it pretty bluntly. 8221;, “How long have you been here? Or with a white guy. I’ve had hotel staff in India directly ask me if my parents raised me strictly and – grrr – whether I’m a virgin (! Mate, I’m right here. Firstly, it is insulting and makes me ...

Goodbye 2011! | taswin12
https://taswin12.wordpress.com/2012/01/08/goodbye-2011
Healing and Understanding Cultural Difference within our Relationships →. January 8, 2012 · 11:00 PM. Well thank goodness it’s 2012! The last few months of 2011 weren’t that great for me. And that’s an understatement. I wasn’t sure where my relationship with L was headed. Without confidently knowing that our relationship had a future, the last thing I felt like doing was blogging about intercultural relationships, or anything remotely related. It would have felt fake. My mum approached the issue in her u...

#PrayforNepal | Life through a kaleidoscope
https://tashsn.wordpress.com/2015/04/28/prayfornepal
Life through a kaleidoscope. Love, life and thoughts. Food for the soul. April 28, 2015. When I was there last December, I was overwhelmed with the love and support I got from the people of Nepal. There was no doubt that the Nepalese were loving, kind, generous, witty, admirable and gentle but the kind of vibe that I got from the little windy roads, the snow capped mighty mountain range, the cool breeze, the warm people was nothing short of amazing.

Fickle Obsessions: November 2009
http://fickleobsessions.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Late night ramblings on fleeting fixations etc. Monday, November 30, 2009. As the first guy I knew. As the first person I crushed on. As the one to snap me out of my weird 3-year daze. As the first one I was truly into. As the one I always turn back to. As the one I had nothing to do with losing. As a momentary lapse of judgement. All of you, forever. Friday, November 27, 2009. I just read this somewhere and I can so relate to it. Khalil Jibran (he's a genius *sigh*). Hope yours is going better! It speak...
