88. The Dialectics of the Ramayana and the City of Changing Shape with Arshia Sattar

Original Drawing by Tori Haynes

This week, scholar and translator Arshia Sattar brings her immense knowledge of the Hindu Epic The Ramayana to talk about ethics, morality, sensuality, and space and how we might imagine a city of changing shape.
