Contextualizing Ambedkar’s Spiritualism

Abstract

A Great Man must be motivated by the dynamics of a social purpose and must act as the scourge and the scavenger of society. The present paper is a sincere endeavour by analysing to embark upon the spiritual journey and eventually transformation of Bhim Rao Ambedkar to Babasaheb Ambedkar. The two outstanding endeavours and achievements of Am bedkar most celebrated today are the battle for the annihilation of caste and the framing of India’s Constitution. Both were truly radical ventures, one challenging the very deep-rooted foundation of Indian society and the other laying the groundwork for transformative changes in every aspect of life in the decades to come. How often do we see it remarked even to this day, that in so many respects, different parts of India and Indian society still remain years behind the radical provisions of the Constitutional frame. It has, indeed, been hard to keep pace with the radicalism of Ambedkar.
