Socio-Literary and Cultural Study of Indian Society by Indra Nath Choudhuri (Hardcover)

The Socio-Literary and Cultural Study of Indian Society from Ancient to Modern is a search for India?s heritage: Hindu, Sufi and about Nationalism and India?s freedom from her colonial past. It is analytical but not learnedness. The author believes as Iqbal, the famous Urdu poet, said: ?Transcend your reason because though it is a glow, it is not your destination; it can only be the path to the destination show.? People, both Indian and foreign, who want to understand Indian heritage from Ancient to Modern in a simple, agreeable style and friendly manner, is the author?s destination. In this volume, he has tried to demolish many myths like dharma is religion, Vedas are ?ruti though the Almighty ordered six ??is to write them down. A Hindu is just not emotional in mind, he also believes in analytic discussion (tarka). Upani?ads are not just created by ??is but also by a revolution unfolded by the students by barraging questions after questions.By explaining about the vitality of India and many other subjects, the book elucidates many things about the idea of India in an authentic manner. The readers will find here many varieties of theological explication, ultimately leading to the celebration of life while searching for the divine and realizing the self.
