Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Ambedkar Saw Religion Not As A Means To Spiritual Salvation Of Individual Souls, But As A Social Doctrine For Establishing The Righteous Relations Between Man And Man. Ambedkar S Philosophy Of Religion Does Not Mean Either Theology Or Religion. Theology Studies The Nature, Attributes And Functions Of God; Whereas Religion Deals With Things Divine. Theology And Religion May Be Linked Together; But They Are Not Philosophies. When We Talk Of Philosophy Of Religion, It Is Taken As A Critical Estimate Of The Existing Religions In General, And In Particular To Evaluate The Teachings And Doctrines Of Each Religion, Whether It Is Hinduism, Islam Or Christianity, In Relation To Man And Society, Because, A Religion, Ignoring The Empirical Needs Of Either Man Or Of Society, Does Not Come Upto The Expectations Of An Intellectual Like Ambedkar.The Present Work Contains Highly Informative And Well-Researched Articles On Ambedkar S Philosophy Of Religion. The Main Topics Dealt Are: Ambedkar S Interpretation Of Religion; Philosophy Of Hinduism As Ambedkar Understood; Hindu Scriptures; Hindu Symbolism; Fate Of Reformers; Counter Revolution; Philosophic Defence Of Counter Revolution; The Hindu Social Stratification; Away From The Hindus; Caste And Conversion; Dr. Ambedkar S Contribution To Buddhism; The Religious Conversion Of Ambedkar; Impact Of Ambedkar S Conversion To Buddhism; Resurgence Of Buddhism In Its Native Land; Viability Of Buddhism; Islam Etc.

Book excerpt: On the morning of 14 Octobe 1956,at a mass rally in the Indian town of Nagpur, rour hundred men and women turned their backs on a millennium of degradation and slavery.

Book excerpt: “What the Communist Manifesto is to the capitalist world, Annihilation of Caste is to India.” —Anand Teltumbde, author of The Persistence of Caste The classic work of Indian Dalit politics, reframed with an extensive introduction by Arundathi Roy B.R. Ambedkar’s Annihilation of Caste is one of the most important, yet neglected, works of political writing from India. Written in 1936, it is an audacious denunciation of Hinduism and its caste system. Ambedkar – a figure like W.E.B. Du Bois – offers a scholarly critique of Hindu scriptures, scriptures that sanction a rigidly hierarchical and iniquitous social system. The world’s best-known Hindu, Mahatma Gandhi, responded publicly to the provocation. The hatchet was never buried. Arundhati Roy introduces this extensively annotated edition of Annihilation of Caste in “The Doctor and the Saint,” examining the persistence of caste in modern India, and how the conflict between Ambedkar and Gandhi continues to resonate. Roy takes us to the beginning of Gandhi’s political career in South Africa, where his views on race, caste and imperialism were shaped. She tracks Ambedkar’s emergence as a major political figure in the national movement, and shows how his scholarship and intelligence illuminated a political struggle beset by sectarianism and obscurantism. Roy breathes new life into Ambedkar’s anti-caste utopia, and says that without a Dalit revolution, India will continue to be hobbled by systemic inequality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Buddha and His Dhamma was B.R. Ambedkar's last work. Published posthumously, it presented a radical reorientation of Buddhist thought and literature, aptly called navayana. It deals with Ambedkar's conceptualization of Buddhism and the possibilities it offered for liberation and upliftment of the Dalits. It presents his reflections on the life of the Buddha, his teachings, and the spread of Buddhism by interweaving anecdotes with detailed analyses of the religion's basic tenets. The author also includes important elements of the Buddhist canon and tradition to make the teachings more accessible. In the first critical and annotated edition of this work, the editors address the on-going debate on Ambedkar's interpretation of the Buddha's dhamma by focusing on the accuracy of his citations and providing missing sources. They also discuss Ambedkar's modification of source materials. The introduction contextualizes the scholarly work related to the text.
