Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rammohun Roy, the Father of Modern India The history of India falls into three broad, clearly-marked divisions. There are the early days of exuberant vitality, creative vigour, many-sided progress, stretching far into the dim past - the India of the Rishis, of the Upanishads, of the Buddhist gospel of love and service, the India of the Epics and the schools of philosophy. We might denote the whole of this long period by the one comprehensive name of Ancient India. This was followed by a long era of gradual decline, of intellectual and spiritual stagnation, of moral and social degradation, of superstition and servitude - a veritable dark age which might be called Mediæval India. Since contact with the West awakened the country from this long death-like slumber, a fresh career of honour and distinction, of intellectual power and spiritual grandeur, of social regeneration and national progress has been ushered in. This new era has been significantly called the Rammohun Roy epoch; for he it was who heralded this era embodying as he did the purest and loftiest aspirations of New India in his own wonderful life and giving inspiring expression to them with his prophetic voice.
