our annual conference

[Guest guest]

Dear friends,

I am glad to be here on the new Indology list. However, as I see, the

dominant topics are the same. To change the subject, I decided to let you know

what goes on in our "outdated", "neo-colonialist", "white-suprematist",

"eurocentric",

"racist" and "indophobic" Classical Indology in this part of the world. Here is

the programm of our annual Indological conference, which took place recently at

St.-Petersburg.
