Book Description
There was a time when Bengal set the benchmark for prosperity in India. It was a province that traded with countries around the world, in an era when the word ‘globalisation’ did not even exist. Fabrics weaved in Bengal were of incomparable superiority, and the indigo exported from the province had substantial demand in the European markets. However, there came a time when the sun set on this flourishing land. As it passed from the hands of the Mughals to the English, and was later divided into two governments, Bengal touched the pinnacles of greatness and plummeted into the depths of suffering. Today, it is rising once again like a phoenix from its own ashes. This book takes you through the several episodes of history, which shaped Bengal—events that spanned victory, death, loss, love, avarice and patriotism.

Book Description
One of the greatest of seers, an apex personality in the history of mankind who ascended to the crest of the universal forces to eliminate the poignancy of human ignorance on earth. He made a God’s Labour with great adventure to free man from the shackles of the iron rules of imposed destiny. He had to make a supreme sacrifice to change the destiny of mankind by rendering his own earthly body as a base for the descent of the highest Truth, Power, Light, Force and Consciousness onto the earth for a luminous future of mankind. He fulfilled his ultimate dream of liberating humanity from the vicious circle of ignorance and inconscience. The Saviour of mankind is none other than Sri Aurobindo, who has achieved all for humanity and charted the pathway for humanity to a delightful, glorious New World and New divine Race.... In the upheaval of humanity’s evolutionary journey, Sri Aurobindo has explored and prepared a path for mankind leading to a world of Beauty and Love. We must follow that path to find that divine life where there would be no disease, decay, death, or destruction. Life would no longer be a confusion and chaos, a struggle for basic survival; there would be no quarrels, fighting, competition; there would be no war, accidents, calamities; there would be no more selfishness, ego-eccentric attitudes, ingratitude, inhumanity, cruelty, poverty, suffering or pain; there would be no medical emergencies, heinous killing and murder, barbarism, vandalism....

Missionaries, Rebellion and Proto-Nationalism
Author: Geoffrey A. Oddie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136809899
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The Rev. James Long was one of the most remarkable Protestant missionaries working in India in the nineteenth century. Sent to Calcutta at the age of 22 in 1840, he devoted his life to representing what he passionately believed were the best interests of the forgotten poor and oppressed among the Bengali population. Long was a central figure in the indigo planting controversy of 1861 and suffered imprisonment as a result. His memory is revered even today in modern India, where his contribution to the development of Bengali vernacular education, literature, history, and sociology is highly regarded. Dr Oddie has produced the first full-length biography of Rev Long, examining his work and activities in the context of his own background, philosophy and motivation as well as the political and cultural climate of the day. This book will add significantly to our knowledge of social movements in nineteenth century India and the colonial responses to them.
