Description
“हिंदुत्वाचे कोड़े” Marathi translation of an original book “Riddles in Hinduism” written by Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar
“Riddles of Hinduism” is a book written by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, which was first published in 1956. It is a comprehensive critique of the Hindu religion, its practices and beliefs, and its impact on Indian society.
The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Ambedkar examines the concept of “Brahmanism”, which he defines as a system of domination based on the idea of caste. He argues that the caste system is not just a social construct, but an integral part of the Hindu religion itself. He also criticizes the idea of “karma”, which he argues is used by the upper castes to justify their exploitation of the lower castes.
In the second part of the book, Ambedkar examines the role of Hinduism in Indian politics. He argues that Hinduism has always been used as a tool of political domination, and that the Hindu nationalist movement, which was gaining momentum at the time the book was written, was a clear example of this. He also criticizes the Indian Constitution for not doing enough to protect the rights of Dalits and other marginalized groups.
In the final part of the book, Ambedkar provides a critique of the Hindu religious texts, such as the Vedas and the Upanishads. He argues that these texts are full of contradictions, and that they have been used to justify the oppression of the lower castes. He also critiques the concept of “moksha”, arguing that it is a way for the upper castes to avoid taking responsibility for their actions in this life.
Overall, “Riddles of Hinduism” is a powerful critique of the Hindu religion and its impact on Indian society. It is a call to action for those who seek to end the caste system and create a more just and equitable society. Ambedkar’s analysis of the role of Hinduism in Indian politics remains relevant today, as Hindu nationalism continues to be a dominant force in Indian politics. His critique of the Indian Constitution also highlights the need for ongoing efforts to protect the rights of marginalized groups in India.
The book has been widely debated and discussed since its publication. Some have criticized Ambedkar for not acknowledging the positive aspects of Hinduism, while others have praised him for his courage in speaking out against a powerful and deeply entrenched system of oppression. Regardless of one’s views on the book, it remains an important work in the history of Indian thought and a testament to Ambedkar’s commitment to social justice.
