B.R. Ambedkar |
1893–1956
|
Bharat Ratna Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (1891-1956), better known as Baba Saheb, was a redoubtable champion of the Dalits (or Depressed Classes). He himself was a Dalit. A great orator, he ignited the minds of his followers to stand up for their rights.
As a student, Baba Saheb was bright and hard-working. After obtaining a Ph.D in Economics from the Columbia University, New York, and a DSc. from the University of London, he became a barrister.
On his return to India, Baba Saheb organized the Dalits into a formidable force with a sense of self-dignity. Around the time, Gandhiji too was waging a war against untouchabilty and urging caste Hindus to give up the heinous practice. However, response from the caste Hindus was slow. Baba Saheb felt justified in demanding a separate electorate for the Dalits since the Hindu society denied them basic human rights and dignity. Gandhiji thought that a separate electorate would not solve the problem and he went on a fast to appeal to Baba Saheb to drop his demand for a separate electorate and to the caste Hindus to stop the practice of untouchability. Fearing for his life, Baba Saheb agreed to the idea of reserved seats within the general Hindu category, a system that continues to this day.
Baba Saheb was a great jurist. As the first Law Minister of Independent India, he played a key role in framing the Constitution of the Republic of India which came into force on January 26, 1950.
In spite of universal acclaim for his contributions in various fields, he was not satisfied with what he had achieved for his people as the practice of untouchability prevailed even though it did not have the sanction of the laws of the land. Shortly before he died, as a symbolic act of protest, Baba Saheb renounced Hinduism and embraced Buddhism with thousands of his followers. |

What is Meditation?
Meditation is a mantra given to us to practice and achieve our goals or targets.
e.g.Guru Dronacharya asked Arjun to concentrate on laksha.
Gautam buddha gave the peace mantra.
Great emperor Ashok after the Kalinga war gave the mankind mantra.
Abdul Kalam explained the value of dream.
Dr.Ambedkar gave the mantra of never say die instead make a win situation from no win situation.
This ideology we get from his teachings,books,speeches and his work.
Any person who want to achieve the big targets must fix small goals or targets.The above coated mantras are very small but when practiced will give us big leaders,scholars and emperors.

KURANCHANDRA GHOSH

THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF LESSONS THAT WE LEARN FROM SUCH GREAT LIVES.
|
KURAN C GHOSH
|
Babasaheb was such a great scholar and a jurist that he was offered to the Law Minister in the USA by the then President Eisenhower but he declined the offer.
|
KURAN C GHOSH
|
Dr. Ambedkar`s life is an inspiration for the downtrodden to rise above poverty, illiteracy and squalor for everyone in the world.
|
venkat
|
He is the best role model for youths.
|
KURAN CH GHOSH
|
EVEN THOUGH DR. AMBEDKAR ROSE TO THE VERY HIGHEST LEVEL HE DID REMEMBER THE POOREST OF THE POOR.
|
kuran chandra ghosh
|
The immortal slogan that came from Babasaheb for upliftment of the downtrodden was: SANGATITH RAHO, SHIKSHIT BANO, SANGHARSH KARO' and this reminds us of the teaching in the Gita: Uplift yourself by yourself, let yourself not down, you are your own friend and even your own enemy...UDDHARED ATMANA ATMANAM ...etc.
