He has talked of modern renaissance and how Hinduism rose from its lowest ebb after the Mughal rule. He has talked of Sri Ramakrishna (who proved that far from being a dying religion, Hinduism was an inexhaustible fount of spiritual inspiration), Swami Vivekananda (whose contribution was in the spread of Hindu thought abroad), Mahatma Gandhi (who called for the regeneration of Hinduism and the reform of Hindu society), Sri Aurobindo (who described as the pioneer of the supramental, the ‘integral yoga’), and Sri Ramana Maharshi (who believed in spiritual quest) and their efforts at revival of Hinduism. This book analyses the impact of Hinduism in the context of modern-day life and is very relevant to the fast-changing mores and values.
