Ambedkar : The Real Father of Nation | Anand Ranganathan |
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ก.ย. 2018
- Anand Ranganathan makes a case for why it is BR Ambedkar and not Mahatma Gandhi who deserves the honorific title of “Father of the Nation” for his indispensable contribution in the making of modern India, in drafting the Constitution, and more importantly, for his pivotal efforts to get the country out of the mire of caste-prejudice and untouchability.
Ambedkar not only sought emancipation of the untouchables, he went further - he fearlessly demanded the catharsis of Indians to atone for the ‘darkness of untouchability’.
Ambedkar’s genius lay in his towering intellect, his clarity of mind and his fearlessness of speaking it. He spared no one.
While his scathing critique of the Caste System and Hinduism is well known, his lesser-known but equally scathing criticism of Communism, of Islam and of the Mahatma and his role in the Khilafat movement leading to Moplah massacres of Hindus, bear testimony to a sharpness of intellect ‘forged with the fortitude of scientific logic’.

Everyone knows Ambedkar's criticism of Hinduism, but our Commie-Congress nexus establishment cleverly hid his views on Islam.
The man definitely had fierce intellect.
somewhat he is in favor 100 percent population exchange in 1947 but gandhi denied
@@9097174264 based Ambedkar. Hinduism indeed need to reform but atleast it's faults are curable.
Reservation one of the blackest disease of india.....he only thought of one caste which was wrong.. the great shivaji maharaja stood for all religion and caste.
Not BIAS
@@udayshetty8065 He would probably have spat at the current reservation system. In none of his writings does he appear a permanent advocate of reservations.
True.
Anand Ranganathan speaks with passion , his love for Dr Ambedkar is evident during the whole lecture. Thanks for this amazing speech. More I read Ambedkar, More I realize there was none like him and there won’t be another Ambedkar.
👍🙏🙏
This is the unfortunate on whole nation actually. Jinko ideal hona chahiye, unke baare mei kuch nahi jante.
@ BTW if you think someone who experienced the discrimination that Ambedkar faced through his life would not have any dislike for the religion responsible for it? You are deluded. He cared for his people, upper castes mistreated untouchables and Shudras for 2000 years. BTW the points you address have all been covered in the lecture, Poona Pact and everything. Meaning you have not watched the full video else you would not make those points. You are a troll, fuck off
@@statickk14 2000 years ?? Are you crazy? Chandra gupt maurya wasnt an upper caste hindu but chanakya chose him seeing his talent
Also ambedkar studied in england when most indians couldnt afford a full meal wow what a discrimination !😀 his education expenses was beared by upper caste hindu wow what a discrimination?
Your ambedkar has 0 contribution for India he was kapil sibbal of pre independent india he used to advocate for britishers and never even demanded independence 🙄

Oh Man!! What a narration Anand!! Love and Respect to Dr. B.R. Ambedkar.
Congress labeled him as Dalit leader which was wrong. He was a National leader and was much more qualified than Nehru. He was intelligent and articulate. He should have been our PM
Correct
Read about his 22 vows
He hate hinduism from his core

B R Ambedkar had masterly scholarship in sixty six subjects. A great encyclopedia of knowledge especially in Law. He was a critic of Hinduism and that was the cause of his struggles and obstacles in shining in the caste- ridden political horizon in India. But nobody can discard his place in the hearts of scholars anywhere in the world.
Dr. Ambedkar is the real hero of the nation. 🙏 🙏
Go and read 22 oath 😂😂 you know ambedkar started navayan boudh 😂😂 you know our constitution is copy of 1935 act , ambedkar invented dalit term in favour of British 😂😂 but constitution assembly kicked out dalit term from our constitution
I am a staunch Hindu. But I take the criticism of Hinduism by Ambedkar. He bore the brunt of casteism. He is an hero and an inspiration for millions of people. 🙏 It's a shame that he was treated badly inspite of being such a great scholar. I truly believe that caste should not be defined by birth. One should be judged by their actions and not by their birth.
Casteism has weakened hindus. We will have to understand this.
I m also Proud Hindu, but Fuck Casteism
Ambedkar was traitor.....opposed independence of India...helped Britishers.
@@mayankkr2192 Ambedkar calls fight 4 freedom as a movement to restore power to upper caste Hindus....was against each n every movement of freedom..
And in 1946 too he wrote letter to british to not leave india..
And if they have to...than control it from outside
@@ashishduhan5870 Bcoz he knew mentality of Nehru nd Congress..
Outstanding speech for our great nation hero Dr.B R.Ambedkar..How calmly and gently you put the facts!! Love the way you talk very nice.
His concept of population exchange theory during partition is so true 👍 he advocated strict population control in 1940 ...such visionary he was..he is real father of nation
The more i listen to Ambedkar, the more i fall in love with his views.
Godse did what is, good for ambedkar,
Difference is that ambedkar expose Gandhi,
But Gandhi is so dishonest and cunning and lucid mind that he get assassinated by godse,
This is making meaning to nation and worthy so that our India cannot imposed Gandhi more as it had done already more cruel and bad
@@riveshraj2759
Bro dnt develop hatred for Gandhi. Dnt blew with the wind. If you are justifying his murder for the sake of Hinduism then you should rember Poona pact. He saved hinduism from further disintegration and if you hate Gandhi for poona pact then you should mind that schedule castes are further divided into many castes. And if Ambedkar ji had succeeded to win communal representation then it might have resulted into disintegration of India (one more country).
Schedule class people were not educated, didn't have land and other resources.
It is the baba sahebs Constitution which has changed the game.
Try to read Gandhi and Ambedkar both. You will get clarity.
Godse never killed Gandhi only for Hinduism . He killed Gandhi for many reasons 1)Gandhi's role in slaughter of 2500 Hindus in Kerala, Mooplah's Genocide .2)Gandhi's statement that Hindus should face death with pride if Muslims comes to kill you 3) Gandhi's inability to stop the partition & allowed slaughter of Sikhs & even Muslims in Punjab border 4) Doing appeasement of Muslims by reading Quran in temple & not doing the opposite. 5) After partition Gandhis role of throwing out poor Hindu refugees who had taken shelters in Mosques 6) To give 55 crores to pakistan when they had attacked through Kabalis in Kashmir. 7) Meeting between Gandhi & Hyderabad Nizam in 1st week of Dec 1947 for Hyderabad freedom & Gandhi's positive signal to Nizam . This all frustrated Godse so the Political murder . May be that time if there would have been media like today he would have exposed Gandhi in media instead of kiling him. Pls remember Nehru banned Godse court statement for 25 years & his brother had to fight in court to remove the ban. What was Nehru worried in this free democracy ?
@@lalitmulay2851
Sir,
Moplah happend in 1921, Gandhi that time just started shaping Independence movement. Entire India was getting united against British. That unity was needed to broken hence British fueled the ongoing tensions between 2 communities. Gandhi taking either of the side was likely to weakened the movement that might have forced Gandhi to remain silent.
2nd Partition was unavoidable, hindu Mahasabha was already in favour of two nation theory so were the muslims. If not then it was an unavoidable event laterally.
@@lalitmulay2851
It will be a long debate to bring light on every aspect of gandhis life.
What happend in past, good or bad, we should take lessons from that.
New India has new aspirations. The focus should be on shaping the present for the future good.
Rest is politics.
And please dnt consider me a votary of Muslims interests. I did this same discussion with another gentleman. You can guess what he must have said. 🤣
I m just trying to follow swami Vivekand. vandemataram.
I request you to see Gandhi for Poona pact. That might change your perspective on Gandhi.
Its impossible for Ambedkar not to touch the soul even though it may be through the mind. I’m glad to have rediscovered Dr Ambedkar. Thank you so much for that enlightening talk.
What a lecture! Ordinary mortals would need a lifetime to manifest this piece of research and delivery. I am in awe before you, Anand........
Anand Ranganathan is a fantastic orator and presenter. Ambedkar is a great personality and Anand has exhibited the same with his presentation skills.The introduction is very nice. Anand's narration of Ambedkar's philosophy is the best I have ever heard. People like Anand can spread peace, harmony,justice in the society by their narration skills. I salute Dr.Ambedkar and Anand for bringing this to all of us. Thank you Anand.
I didn't know that Ambedkar wrote on Jihad. This is really an eye opener.
Bhai he wrote on even article 370, and said division of Pakistan is not correct and the formation of Pakistan.
@Citizen Kolar At least Hinduism evolves over the time. It has given up all the adulterated wrong practices and hopefully will be better in terms of social justice in future. Apart from that, "Darshan" in Hinduism exceeds any literature brilliance of any religion. Hinduism preaches the most crude realities of life.

But he started Islamic boudh 😂😂 you know navayan boudh foundation same as abrahmic faith 😂😂 , navayan boudh foundation on hate against Hinduism . Read 22 oath 😂😂
An excellent, superlative talk.
MG & his protege JLN were, both, mere pygmies as compared to the GIANT son of Mother India, Dr B R Ambedkar.
Dr B.R.Ambedkar is the TRUE, GENUINE & AUTHENTIC Father of the Nation, Patron Saint of the Nation & Supreme Conscience Keeper of Mother India.
Truthful to the very core, a towering intellectual who deeply loved & understood Mother India despite facing UNTOLD humiliation as an Untouchable. AUM!
The same pygmies invited Babasaheb to chair the drafting committee and be the first law minster of India. Yes Nehru always made sure that he fought against him in elections but that is what politicians in opposite parties do. Nehru made sure he implemented the Hindu personal law in the next elections even after bababsaheb resigned and lost the next elections. After the poona pact Gandhi made sure he campaigned against untochability throughout the 30 till Quit India. The fact is u hate today's Congress party and blame Nehru and Gandhi for it, which shows how little u understand Indian politics and history. The whole ideas of black and white vs grey is pure bullshit if that is the case then there is no difference between murder and manslaughter and section 302 and 304 should be merged.
@@sudoanonymous96 JLN invited Ambedkar not Gandhi. JLN was completely undemocratic and communal so yes he was a Pygmy compared to Ambedkar and about Gandhi the less said the better - Indians ko en masses kaafi bewaqoof banaya Congress ne - was such a dirt poor country with foolish notions of being non violent and peaceful etc etc and got us screwed by our neighbors.....the harm they did living in their la la land is just insurmountable.
Very much true Vishwaratna Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar is the real father of nation.The more we read Ambedkar the more we can understand him.I insist everyone should read n understand him.Thanks Anand for this wonderful session
A nation has sons not father dont we call matrubhoomi or motherland?
The Koregaon incident faced by Ambedkar at the age of 9 sent a chill down my spine and my eyes welled up. It made my heart heavy and there was a lump in my throat.
Are these incidents even real? Where is the proof? Ambedkar studied in england when most of the indians couldnt make their both ends meet 🙄

So there is high plausibility that babasaheb might have faced these sort of discriminations ,we can't deny that .
Secondly babasaheb was studying in England because of scholarship granted by maharaja of baroda leveraging his future service for Baroda riyasat.

@ Ambedkar did not write our Constitution. The Indian constitution was written by "The Constituent Assembly (TCA)" which had more than 300 members. TCA included such stalwarts as Nehru, Patel, TT krishnamachari, Alladi Krishna Swamy Iyer and many others. Every body worked by forming committees to write different parts of our Constitution. Ambedkar was only in Draft committee which assembled what others wrote. I wonder whether Ambedkar wrote even a single article. Ambedkar himself said that he did not write the Constitution and he only compiled what others wrote.
@ Smrithi is not religion, Ambedkar didn't know this and he didn't bother to check with experts on Hinduism. Religion comes from Sruthi(Vedas). Many Smrithis were there before and after Manu Smrithi. Yajnvalkya Smrith, Parasar Smrith, Maithreya Smrith total there were 14 Smriths. Smrithis are time bound Sruthi is eternal. Smrithis are subject to change. today's Smrithi is the Indian Constitution.
BRAHMINS even won't spell his name by mistake,
This speech should be dubbed in several languages of India to make everyone understand.
Everybody understand English its good for reaching wide audience
@@nikhilhembrom8952 I don't know which country you're talking abt, but in India it's a language of a small minority and millions of ppl get excluded; then there're those who think they understand the language but can't actually get the message properly. So, to avoid misinterpretation, it'd be much better if such talks were accessible in some regional languages.
Try to be inclusive plz and think abt poor rikshaw/taxi drivers, labourers, farmers, domestic employees, students in municipality/govt schools, those who sleep in the streets, our grandparents, the list is endless.

Agreed, friend
@@Luuka11 wahha !! what a retort!! You deserve to be awarded with " bheem- rathna"!!
I always felt bad for how our Hindu community treated dalits, especially Ambedkar. But never knew his views on Islam. This actually explains a lot that is happening in our country. Thanks.
True, we must be ashamed of ourselves.
Selective approach that too by capable minds
Yes your hindu religion is cruel and teaches unequality just like Islam
Iam Mahar dalit now proud Marathi Bhuddhist,my grandfather participated in mass conversion in bhuddism lead by our God Bhim in 1956 and I fell proud about it
Jay Bharat Jay bhim🇮🇳🇪🇺❤.
@ Sure. As long as you are feeling fine, that's all that matters. Also, caste in India cuts across religions. Islam, Christianity, Sikhism, etc also have castes. As per sociological studies, the origin of casteism is not well understood. Though there are hindu religious texts that created caste inequalities (Manu smriti), caste exists in other religions cause it is more related to the work one does or did. And the current existence of caste today has less to do with religious sphere (Hinduism) and more to do with socio-political spheres (this again explains existence of caste in other religions). whatever may be the reasons, today the caste distinctions must go. Else, India will never progress.
@@ragas93 nice comments 👌appreciable 👍
yes he is a real father of Indian nation due to relentless struggle for the upliftment of his motherland India
yes..... he was a freedom fighter because.. he faught for the freedom of-
Dalits and Harijans for their equal rights and their basic necessities.
For their rights to Education.
For their rights to Worship ‘Hindu’ Gods.
For their rights to atleast drink clean water.
He fought for the equal rights of Women in the Society which was in a sense freedom for Women from the outclass old customs of Hindu Society.
He fought for the Labour Class which were depreived from their basic rights.
and so on... well you don't understand, this happens with me when I went to a upper caste hindu house for some work.. and they give me tea along with the water to wash my teacup... to kaisa lgta hai... and this happens in present day india...
@@VivekMeshram19 What the other guy said was- he was a sectarian leader who had plans of copying whatever good that was happening in europe(labor reform, women empowerment, egalitarian society, casteism ). I'd call him a social reformer rather than a participant of Indian freedom struggle.

The 22 Vows ( 22 प्रतिज्ञा ) by Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar, delivered in 1956:

3. मैं गौरी, गणपति और हिन्दुओं के अन्य देवी-देवताओं में आस्था नहीं रखूँगा और न ही मैं उनकी पूजा करूँगा.
4. मैं भगवान के अवतार में विश्वास नहीं करता हूँ
5. मैं यह नहीं मानता और न कभी मानूंगा कि तथागत बुद्ध विष्णु के अवतार थे. मैं इसे पागलपन और झूठा प्रचार-प्रसार मानता हूँ
6. मैं श्रद्धा (श्राद्ध) में भाग नहीं लूँगा और न ही पिंड-दान दूँगा.
7. मैं बुद्ध के सिद्धांतों और उपदेशों का उल्लंघन करने वाले तरीके से कार्य नहीं करूँगा
8. मैं ब्राह्मणों द्वारा निष्पादित होने वाले किसी भी समारोह को स्वीकार नहीं करूँगा
9. मैं मनुष्य की समानता में विश्वास करता हूँ
10. मैं समानता स्थापित करने का प्रयास करूँगा
11. मैं बुद्ध के आष्टांगिक मार्ग का अनुशरण करूँगा
12. मैं बुद्ध द्वारा निर्धारित परमितों का पालन करूँगा.

19. मैं हिंदू धर्म का त्याग करता हूँ जो मानवता के लिए हानिकारक है और उन्नति और मानवता के विकास में बाधक है क्योंकि यह असमानता पर आधारित है, और स्व-धर्मं के रूप में बौद्ध धर्म को अपनाता हूँ
20. मैं दृढ़ता के साथ यह विश्वास करता हूँ की बुद्ध का धम्म ही सच्चा धर्म है.
21. मुझे विश्वास है कि मैं फिर से जन्म ले रहा हूँ (इस परिवर्तन के द्वारा).
22. मैं गंभीरता एवं दृढ़ता के साथ घोषित करता हूँ कि मैं इसके (परिवर्तन के) बाद अपने जीवन का बुद्ध के सिद्धांतों व शिक्षाओं एवं उनके धम्म के अनुसार मार्गदर्शन करूँगा.

So sad of my country. We being educated we are not aware about our indian gems. We just know about the gods.
Dear sir, It is a popular misconception and a lie daily told by many in India, that Ambedkar was the man behind The Constitution of India. Please understand;
1.) Writing Constitution of India was not (and could not) be a one-man's job.
2) The Job was given to "The Constituent Assembly" which had more than 300 members. It included many stalwarts like Patel, Nehru, M. Ananthasayanam Ayyangar, Alladi Krishnaswamy Iyer etc.
3.) Ambedkar was only the chairman of drafting committee, All articles were written by several committees formed from he members of "The Constituent Assembly."
4.) Ambedkar himself said on the floor of house that he did not write the Constitution of India, that he only made a book out of what others wrote.
@@begumchand 29 August, 1947, the Constituent Assembly set up a Drafting Committee under the Chairmanship of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar to prepare a Draft Constitution for India.

He was charged of sedition for his efforts.

It has to happen in the schools,colleges, villages, and that too among the all categories of community to understand Dr Ambedkar. It is great lecture and flow of thoughts.
I accept criticism of hinduism by Dr Ambedkar, And salute him for Fight against Castiesm. He was not against Hinduism but against Kuritio and hypocrisy.
But the Congress made his image as an anti-Hindu.
@nikki ajitha He was against against caste discrimination not Sanatan dharm (Which we consider as Hinduism today.) Caste system is not part of sanatan dharm. it was varn system, Which has changed over time into a different caste. The person who did business was made his caste.
Just as Sati system, child marriage has also ended, so too will casteism end soon. Casteism is ending very fast.
And as far as I have read about Ambedkar, he was not against Vedos, which is the main text of Sanatan Dharma.
@nikki ajitha No!! Caste system is not part of hindu religion. Varna system was part of ancient india that became jati system. It was started by
there was 4 varn But now there are most than 6000 castes in india. Can you give me a single reference where these 6000 caste are mentioned in hindu books??
@nikki ajitha It's because you are also a woman, you liked the issue of women's rights more. And I also respect your point of view.
Equality Is Best thing to Built a bettet society.
And yes!! The fight is not over yet, so we have to keep fighting.
Keep it up...👍👍
@nikki ajitha see, I'll acknowledge that cast system was a part of the corrupted Hinduism that was practiced back then. But I'd like to say that Dr Ambedkar purified Hinduism intentionally or not and I'm grateful to him for this. He is the reason today we know that Hinduism had varna and cast and if varna system is exploited then it becomes caste system, so know we are aware of it. Even if Hinduism was that bad, it doesn't matter now, we are ready to change it
@nikki ajitha Lol Hinduism is against Women 🤣🤣🤣 Listening new things from woke libraaaandus 😂😂
A wonderful lecture. What horrific atrocities have we inflicted on our fellow human beings!!!
What a spectacular speech......you opened my eyes Anand Sir ❤️🙌
Thank you very much for delivering such knowledge content and yes real father of nation is Dr B. R. Ambedkar.
The intellect of this man is unbelievable. Holy shit.
We call them Baba, baba means father. My father calls them Baba my mom calls them Baba my brother,sis, daughter, call them Baba. And whenever we meet each other we greet with Jay Bhim. Now I could understand the meaning of this. Because of you sir. Salut of you.
Really great
We all call him baba shaheb & we all need him for the guidance.he wanted to give us much more fundamental and he wanted to everyone recognised as simply Human not super man but man not god on earth but Buddha’s man fully human .
There is no another Baba saheb.🌹🙏🌹
In my humble opinion I think he would have not liked the idea of making him hero as that would defeat the purpose of his life itself . But as humans it seems justified as we want someone to worship and a messiah to save us.
@@karannainwal1990 I think you're not too far from truth. I don't think Baba Saheb would like us to make him a celebrity. However, his deeds and vision should be shared and spoken of. India should completely eradicate the curse of casteism. We cannot afford to remain divided.
But Jai bheem army is in hands with MIM so beware
@@HiraShaibalReal Didnt baba saheb was a casteist bigot too? He only cared for his community ie dalits
The members of the general category hate him because he has done something for the sc St community..but now I can say Jai bheem...🙏🙏🙏 Father of modern india... Everyone should listen to his ideas his ideology his views ..❣️🙏

Just saw this presentation today. What a tour-de-force!! Anyway, as the man who gave India its Constitution, Dr. Ambedkar is the true father of the nation. In fact, he and Sardar Patel are the only ones who should be given that honor in my view. But blessed are we that such giants as these men, including Gandhi, walked on the soil of our motherland. May we all aspire to such greatness. Ultimately it is only us that can make the changes we want to see in society.
We need more of Mr. Ranganathan's talks. Sensational narration and amazing insights

Such a cruel episode took place in his life at age of 9 !! Simply heart rending.
OMG, I'm from Pakistan knew a little bit about Shri Ambadkar but now I know a lots, actually Im an Ex Muslim n sanatani now everything is perfect n natural in Sanatan but the cast system bothers me a lot, I'm striving on n on to have some answers, Bhagwan bless you sir for your research n narrations, 👍♥️👍♥️🙏🙏🙏
Caste system created by invaders
In our book there no caste but
We should follow caste by vaishnav shudra etc by our karma
Just remember one thing brother...Sanatana never said that caste is defined by your birth, it’s the karmas , what defines your class. (Actually I never liked to use the word CASTE, I rather prefer group or category or class)
Now If you think logically, the categorisation of any species (of course , including Human beings ) is very natural and obvious , because not everyone is same and nor their KARMA.
You are bound to categorise.
Birth categorisation is done on basis of your karmas not by birth.
That’s Hinduism .
@@nishantkulshrestha9160 let us not blame Britishers and others for cast system. If you know about Basavanna's reformations in the 10th century (before Islam or Britishers), you will know cast system existed before the Brits. the way to abolish cast system and to make all citizens our brothers and sisters, 1) we have to unconditionally accept that we had (have) cast system first 2) recognize openly the harm it has caused to all people 3) sincerely oppose it. Fortunately Hinduism itself does not oppose or encourage caste system, it is open to reformations. 2) Unfortunately the politicians and Indian politics is based on cast, religion, region, language divides. Even the people most adversely impacted by cast are the fiercest defenders of cast system (for personal and political gains). So the solution to cast system should and will come only when the politics of India is reformed.
Go for Buddhisms bro!
Read buddha and his dhamma by dr Ambedkar
I think many people from good families follow caste systems much now! As people are getting knowledge people will realise this !
During my school days till 1969, I never read any chapter about him in my text books. First time heard about him in 1975 when I was living in Bombay. However, I wasn't willing to know about him simply because back of my mind, a sleeping thought was present that he is from castes which is not liked by our caste. Things did changed due to life style in Bombay. Then I started learning about him, his life and his vision. Still it was not enough to recognise his greatness.
Today, floodgates are opened upon me and I feel very sad that life of such a great person which arosed many inspirations was muddled with power to rule and leaving behind the source and subject of such force.
While many of leaders of that class are prosperous yet millions of their caste live in very poor conditions. That's biggest misuse of reservation proposed by none other than Dr Ambedkar.
Yes it's right Dr Ambedkar lives in statue in park, or on political posters of parties and not in lives of people of this nation.
One question bangs my mind when we call ourselves as great civilised society, how come this types of rituals became norms of society. I think these norms were not imposed by rulers of that times.
I ❤️ Mr Ranganathan.

Sir, such a great presentation of a great personality on this planet so beautifully presented, at times they were goosebumps listening to Dr.Ambedkars struggles during is schooling, person of his stature is confined only to writings of Indian constitution, but there are many things people can learn from his experiences, i am still surprised a person so much happy in his foreign state stay, but why then such education background against stay in India, fight against all odds still surprised, if every individual learn from his biography, i think mindset and our prejudices and lead to a betterment, Sir once again fantastic presentation...
Tears rolled down my cheeks while listening to your reading on Babasaheb Ambedkar.
Hatsoff indeed , Mr Ranganathan. Spoken with refreshing unreserved objectivity, rarely seen.
As I am a RSS member, I will accept that he is the father of our nation.
If the Congress accepted it at the right time and allow him be the 1st pm of our country. If it so, then our country may not met that much of tragedy at the time indipendance and the country partition and he might not convert himself to Buddhism.
Converting into buddhism it's bcoz hindusim didn't give him anything rather than caste based discrimination this was the only reason he converted himself into buddhism..and Buddhism teachings is about humanity that's all
Buddhism is also based on Dharmik principles. By doing so he gave the discriminates people an option so that they dont become a pawn of Khilafat brotherhood.
@@mukulwalke2889 Buddhism is single person religion so rejection of Buddha philosophy is impossible
Real Buddhism has got nothing to do with Neo-Buddhism let’s get this clear. Ambedkar could have chosen Christianity but he was allergic to Abrahamic. He chose Buddhism coz it was an engendered religion. He wanted to revive it and to give Dharmic ppl option a way to follow Dharma. But after Ambedkar Neo-Buddhist of India distorted his vision and turned it into Mim-Bim types. Neo-Buddhists hate Hindus. They have no love for Dalits. They r friends of Islam based on convenience.
@@r.b.8018 He was mot allegric to abrahamic , in fact he himself has said that "choosing abrahamic religion will denationalise the schedule castes" , he was very clear about the nationality of Bharat!!
its disheartening that we went from a philosophy as advaitha meaning is everything one, the true manifestation of brahman to untouchability.
Even the dharmacharyas who believe in advaita, believe in the necessity of untouchability.
@E Rampersad the word brahman (ब्रह्मन्) is different from braahmaNa (ब्राह्मण) the varna.
although it is very easy to confuse them when written in English.
and the word are related by vriddhi.
vishnu>vaishanava
siva>saiva
brahman>braahmaNa.
@@motorprotein1797 maybe but adi shankaracharya did not believe in its necessity, he did not believe that such a segregation should be made since all soul are derived from one.
he is the founder of Advaita.
@@chinmayjoshi3592 thanks for the reply.
I'm sorry to say that I humbly disagree. Adi Shankara called women, shudras and vaishyas, papyonah in his Bhagwad Gita Bhashya, many other acharyas considered papayonah as a separate category.
Adi Shankara in his Brahma Sutra Bhashya said that women and lower caste people cannot study Vedas and Vedanta because smriti prohibits them, and prescribes that a shudra listening to the vedas must have molten lac poured into his ears, if he utters it must have his tongue cut, and if he preserves it he must have his body cut up.
Advaita is philosophy of upanishad, aham brahmasmi, prajnanam brahma, tattvamasi, ayam atma brahma, sarvam khalvidam brahma, ishavasya idam sarvam, all predate shankara. Shankaracharya wasn't inclusivist as many people like to believe. Ramanandacharya was more inclusivist saying, jaat paat pooche nahi koye jo hari ko bhaje so hari ke hoye.
@@chinmayjoshi3592 shankara was a giant, a scholar, a wonderful debater, but he wasn't inclusivist. As an atheist I find advaita very intriguing, but the concept evolved much before shankara
It was an eye opener... Much less is told about such great souls.
Ambedkar is the father of our country. He's the giant and his is the road for us to follow.
I am very much impressed by his great personality, courage to fight for justice at those days.i salute him with lots of honour.even though he borned in schedule cast ,he educated himself so that he wrote constitution of India . really great dr.Ambedker.
Gandhi comes across as an intellectual dwarf as compared to towering reformist Ambedkar.
Looks like he had a massive inferiority complex. He feared people of fierce intellect like Ambedkar, Savarkar and Subhas Chandra Bose.

He deserves to be father of nation and his photo should be on indian currency notes.
It be great tribute to him
What an amazing presentation, in an extremely poetic way and this was very thoughtful it would have been better if we had discussed about the relevance of reservation system in present times.
Caste system is also 100% reservation
Every video of Srijan / Infinity foundation is an eye opener. He is empowering average Indian with right India narrative which was distorted deliberately by leftist and westerners.

Godse did what is, good for ambedkar,
Difference is that ambedkar expose Gandhi,
But Gandhi is so dishonest and cunning and lucid mind that he get assassinated by godse,
This is making meaning to nation and worthy so that our India cannot imposed Gandhi more as it had done already more cruel and bad
Absolutely!!
Ambedkar can be called father of indian constitution there are scores of many lenders who fought for the independence gandhijee alone stood tall amongst them gandhijee s ahimsa (Buddhist concept ) won the freedom finally hence gandhiJ rightly called father of the nation
Amazingly brilliant discourse on a great man Dr.B.R.Ambedkar. Mr.Anand has brought many facts to the informed audience exceedingly well.The critical facts discussed about Ambedkar are truely intriguing and worth knowing.A great discussion about a great man Dr.B.R.Ambedkar.My salutation to Dr.B.R.Ambedkar and Mr.Anand Ranganathan for his indisputable views on Dr.B.R.Ambedkar👏👍.
Dearest sir u r just amazing 😉
I can see in your heart and you have purest heart 💓
We can feel your words are so natural and true and very powerful.
He is really father of our nation.
One and only Dr. B R Ambedkar.
🙏🌹🙏👏👏
I think we should start a petition to change father of nation ,it has to be ambedkar
Bus yeh hi sab bakchodiyan karo
There is no such official title lmao as father of nation in India 😂. I do think Dr.Ambedkar knew about the threat of islam and he knew about how reservation could make thing worse(in his book about partition he has written this). Then still he did so many blunders. We should stop fascinating about Father of Nation bullshit. Gandhi was a terrible person but Ambedkar wasn't a saint either. He was just a human like you and me. He was product of British education system and he was brainwashed by them by a lot. He had shallow knowledge of What is Hinduism very very shallow based on only a few experience and british interpretations. His hatred for Hinduism is visible in most of his writing and i find his veiw on Hinduism as one-sided childish rant. His veiw was Hinduism can't reform he forgot Hinduism is an evolving dharma. So my conclusion we DON'T NEED A FATHER OF NATION. As a right winger i don't understand whats the new fascination of right wing with ambedkar.
@@surajnag3650 yup, he didn't buy sakha bs.

This is just brilliant. What a narration Dr Anand Ranganathan! We need to talk more about Dr Ambedkar and others who have shaped India as we know today.
Agree completely. We have done so much wrong to Babasaheb Ambedkar and all the Dalits. I feel shame. And such sorrow. Every time I read about him, tears can't help rolling down my cheeks.
He put together the exemplary Constitution giving us all equality liberty fraternity, none of which he got in his childhood and even adulthood. He deserves to be the Father of the Nation. We owe it to him.
For me Dr. Ambedkar certainly is the Real Father of Nation!

What a narration? Very moving. I am ashamed at what my forefathers did. That even educated people had no humanity is appalling that a young child could not get water. Yet people complain about providing quotas. But there is no point in providing quotas without providing education to these people to benefit from the quotas provided. That is our tragedy that our political leaders only exploit the caste differences but not provide the means to become full citizens of India in a full and meaningful way. That many were forced into bonded labor to be liberated by people like Satyamurthi. I did not even know about Satyamurthi from the list of Bhrarath Ratna awardees but by reading about him winning a Nobel Peace Prize. Wbat a sham we have made of the remedies provided by Dr Ambedkar. We have failed Dr Ambedkar by only doing lip service to his efforts. What a great man and how lucky we were to have him and how unfortunate were we that he was stifled from making India really great by our politicians whom we regarded as great. There had been no greater person in India than Dr Ambedkar and what an inspiration he will be for us not only for the Constitution he provided us but for the moral courage he showed despite all the horrors he suffered in India. Will we ever get such a leader again. Let us never forget Dr Ambedkar for all his services and remedy the horrors that he and his community underwent and still undergoing.
