دانلود کتاب The Hindu Phenomenon [INCOMPLETE BOOK]

Girilal Jain, doyen Of Indian Journalists And Editor Of The Times Of India From 1978 To 1988, Was A Passionate Crusader Of The Hindu Cause. This Posthumous Work Puts Into Historical Perspective The Growing Hindu Self-Awareness And Self-Assertion.

Girilal Jain belonged to that minority of Indian intellectuals who welcomed the movement for the Ram temple as part of the process of Hindu self-renewal and self-affirmation. The rise of Hindus, he argued, was a phenomenon that began 200 years ago with the consolidation of the British Raj and the disarming of the local populace. This produced a fundamental shift in the power balance between Hindus and Muslims which has not been reversed since, though it led to the partition of the country in 1947. Every important Hindu leader from Rammohan Roy to Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru has made his contribution to the Hindu resurgence. The Ramjanambhoomi movement was only the latest manifestation of this phenomenon, its importance being that it had placed the issued of the civilizational base of Indian nationalism at the centre of the country's political agenda.
