In Being Different: An Indian Challenge to Western Universalism, thinker and philosopher Rajiv Malhotra addresses the challenge of a direct and honest engagement on differences by reversing the gaze, repositioning India from being the observed to the observer and looking at the West from the dharmic point of view. In doing so, he challenges many hitherto unexamined beliefs that both sides hold about themselves and each other.

Absolutely essential for all

This book reminds me of this quote “We shall not cease from exploration, And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started, And know the place for the first time."
I knew most of this at some intuitive level but never crystalized. Grew up in India went to a Christian school, learnt both Christianity at school and Hinduism through culture and stories. This book is critical in expressing and challenging the Dogmatic Supremacist Western approach to philosophy & logic whilst pitting alternatives from the Hindu thought.
I bought the kindle version too for reference.
Excellent much needed work.
