Soft cover. Condition: New. A civilization that forgets its struggles is condemned to repeat its mistakes and spiral into a self-destructive cycle. The battles for freedom and the resistance against occupation and atrocities all too often recede from collective memory, overshadowed by the weight of oppression and systematically orchestrated efforts to erase the Hindu identity through manipulated narratives. The sacred geography of Bharat, the cradle of Hindu dharma and the ancestral home of the Hindu people, has borne witness to relentless invasions, leaving scars on the collective psyche. The Ram Janmabhoomi movement stands as a poignant testament to the devastation inflicted upon the roots of Hindu civilization and the arduous battle to reclaim it. In an era dominated by weaponized narratives, where the perpetrators of atrocities are romanticised as victims and the victims are crowned as oppressors, this book reminds of the facts and the inconvenient truths of the blood, sweat and tears that many Hindus shed in fighting the good fight. It is a call to ensure that every Hindu born in an age, removed from those trials and tribulations, never forgets the sacrifices made by those who went before them. For if we forget, we are complicit in normalising the obliteration of our great civilization.…

Soft cover. Condition: New. Few organisations have shaped modern Bharat as profoundly, or provoked as much debate, as the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Hundred Years Young does something different. It moves beyond familiar narratives and hands the microphone to a remarkable generation of young achievers who engage with the Sangh through experience, observation, and inquiry rather than inherited assumptions. Entrepreneurs, lawmakers, artists, academics, sportspersons, and public intellectuals from India and around the world come together, including voices from Hindu, Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities. The result is a rare, contemporary conversation about one of the most influential and contested organisations of our time, exploring Seva, Hindutva, Dharma, and Rashtra, and their place in the Sangh's century-long journey. Read it to understand. Read it to question. Read it to agree or disagree. Above all, read it before making up your mind. • A Century of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh: Hundred Years Young examines the RSS at the completion of a hundred years, looking at its influence, evolution, and continuing place in contemporary Bharat. • Voices from a New Generation: The book brings together young achievers from fields such as entrepreneurship, politics, academia, sport, art, and public life, offering perspectives shaped by experience, observation, and inquiry. • Beyond Familiar Narratives: Rather than approaching the Sangh through established positions alone, the contributors engage with it from different social, professional, and intellectual backgrounds. • Exploring Seva, Hindutva, Dharma, and Rashtra: The volume considers some of the central ideas associated with the RSS and examines how these concepts have figured in its century-long journey and wider public life. • A Conversation Across Communities and Borders: With contributors from India and abroad, including voices from Hindu, Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities, the book presents a broad range of perspectives on an influential and frequently debated organisation. • An Invitation to Read, Question, Analyze, and Decide: Designed for readers across viewpoints, Hundred Years Young encourages informed engagement with the RSS, inviting readers to understand its ideas, question its role, and arrive at their own conclusions.…
