In Madurai Medical College, the TN govt sacks Dr.Rathinavel as Dean after students take a modified ancient oath based off Charaka Samhita. The media hacks attack the Charaka oath and Samskritam while endorsing English & the Hippocrates oath.

Upanayanam: To do or not?
This post is by request, an attempt to answer multiple questions I was asked on the Upanayanam ceremony.
Questions opposing Upanayanam:
- The sacred thread is an act of Brahminical patriarchy. Why should only Brahmin men wear it but not others?

- Why should we spend so much money in this ceremony?
