Review: The book is about a speech Ambedkar was not delivered, and published instead.Ambedkar cites many atrocities committed against the low class by the high class. Unfortunately this is still going on. This was and is despicable.Other than being against “caste” which is a British construct that has been adopted and propagated as birth based, Ambedkar misses the point completely.His speech rambles on. A solution he puts forth is inter caste marriage, which will take years.Caste is derived from Varna, which is defined in Sanatana Dharma. It is based on one’s occupation and qualities. A Brahmin is one who is a Pujary who is knowledgeable of the scriptures, performs rituals and typically associated with a Mandir as a Pujary. It is an occupation. People who work for a living and get paid are Shudras.The Varna of pople who go about calling themselves Brahmins, who are working in salaried jobs is Shudra.The conclusion I have reached is that Hinduism is derived from Sanatana Dharma. It is not the same. Caste is associated with Hinduism. Varna is defined in Sanatana Dharma. A Hindu ascribes to Caste, a Sanatani ascribes to Varna.

Review: The best eye opener book which was accidentally published but some accidents are for good. This book is actually a bundle of speeches by Dr B R Ambedkar sir and his name itself is enough. How gracefully he depicted that if caste system prevails how it will affect India as a whole and what not.Give it a short you’ll love it

Review: Ambedkar is a product of Caste Discrimination, we all know this from our popular discourse.He in this piece, has called Hindus as COWARDS because they can’t go beyond CASTE LINES which he has called CONSCIOUSNESS OF CASTE.According to him, Hindus are plural, accepting and liberal not because of inherent civilizational ethics and morality. But because Hindus can’t pitch a UNITED front against an adversary. This trait of Hindus make them coward because they know some other Hindu won’t come for there rescue as they are DIVIDED on caste lines.He further takes a very radical stance by inferring that Hinduism is beyond repair because Caste is sanctioned by scriptures themselves.And no amount of interpretation, along with course correction can fix the situation now as there can’t be one single standard narration of scriptures agreed upon by everyone.He goes on to state that words like ‘BRAHMIN’ perpetuate caste in itself so the word needs a complete eradication per se.Hence the best way forward and thesis he has proposed for annihilation of caste is ANNIHILATION OF HINDUISM.
