Bonus Episode - Prabodhchandrodaya with Jvala Singh

Jvala Singh joins us for a bonus episode about the philosophical play: Prabodhchandrodaya.

Jvala writes:

The Prabodhcandrodaya - The Rise of the Moon of Awakening, is a very influential Sanskrit play, written at the end of the 11th century. Rooted in Advaita Vedanta philosophy, the text took numerous forms over the centuries, including a Persian version (17th century), as well as a Braj Bhasha version (18th century) translated by Pandit Gulab Singh, a Nirmala Sikh.
