This is profound, and we should all understand and apply it in our daily lives.

\nUnpopular opinions.. he wasn't the only one.. or even the most profound reformer.. if you go back to bhakti movement..it was all about the same thing.. which never it's due credit in societieal reforms.\nBut this guy was a puppet of British..so he got limelight for things which British wanted to pop up so that they can claim that they are bringing "civilizations" to these "barbaric" nations.. and used this to justify their rule
\nHe got into limelight because he was the one with most influential power and could bring the reforms. You are absolutely right that there were others but most were unfortunately silenced by religious leader and masses alike. Another person that, despite being a commoner, could bring a great change was Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar.
\nThe guy was indeed Hindu virodhi, in the guise of a Hindu reformer. Was a pawn in British hands to legitimize their rule as a 'civilizing mission'. Amplifying stray incidents of sati as if it was a defining feature of Hinduism. High time such over glorified 'reformers' are exposed for who they truly were.
\n'stray incidents' of sati? You have no idea what was happening then in bengal.
\n\n\n\nstray incidents' of sati? You have no idea what was happening then in bengal.
\n
Why would we? Aren't Bengalis intelligent enough to beg british to solve their problems?
\nIf you want to discuss, I am open to it. It doesn't really benefit you, me or anyone if we just keep throwing mud without really understanding the context and History.
\nHinduism is one of the most reformed religion, the basic tenets and structure is of an exploratory nature and not absolutist. Unlike other religions which start as fundamentalist and later reform or some never reform, Hinduism has its history as a scientific religion encouraging free will but later due to advent of external thoughts imbibed some ill practices, which went on for few centuries to later reform as the civilization progressed.
\n\nThe rediscovery of pagan ideas especially Hindu ideas were instrumental in European renaissance (don\u2019t comment against this line without any proof), the mathematical endeavors of that time in europe were fueled by mathematical knowledge from India, those knowledge can be attributed to Hinduism as they were an inquiry into the universe under the patronage of a temple or a religious assignment. Hinduism never claimed to be in two parts like other religions, secular and gospel, everything under the sun was understood through Hinduism and that understanding was gained through observation and questioning (the two pillars for scientific discovery).
\n\nWhile Ram Mohan can be called as a reformer, he wasn\u2019t a holistic social reformer, his target were only Hindu practices (other religions including christianity and Islam had equally high ill practices), his idea of reforms mainly mainly were self loathing ones, he was determined to impose the Indic Civilization as intellectually delinquent.
\n\nThe reforms he wanted were according to European imposed ideas rather than the treasure trove of reforms/ rather already existing practices of the Authentic Hinduism. He Should be called More of a stooge of the Crown rather than a reformed.
\n\nWhile he was hell bent in showing Hindus as savages, christians were performing inquisitions and witch hunts, and these burning of live humans were exponentially higher in numbers than sati pyre at any given time. He spent his last days in England, without that English patronage he\u2019d be a nobody.
\n\nI would rather blame self loathing stooges like Mr Roy as the main reason we never fully reformed, as their main idea never was reform but rather establishing European supremacy.
\nRaja Ram Mohan Roy liberated Indian society. Hats off for this person
\nOnly hindu society. He keeps mum about islamic society.
\nTrue over centuries every religion at some point has exploited common human being especially women and some specific castes
\nNow this is something worth listening to.
\nThis guy has been buried in London in the honour of his contribution to secularism.
\nOnly if people could understand this simple thing
\nNo one cares about him. Just the fact that he played a role in stai abolishment, is a gk ques and may come in some exam. That's it.
\ndamn even the side character cooked with his acting skills... nd then u look actors these days
\nSo after "reforming" india he went to UK and die there.
\nWhat's the problem with idol worship? That in itself is such a anti hindu stance.
\nAre these historically accurate? if it is, he was a great man with a broad vision back in that era
\nBro was ahead of his time
\nye to khichdi wale babuji h ..... kudkud kumar
\nWhich movie is this?
\nAn absolute legend and an icon from every single dimension! Changed the Indian society from the core
\n[deleted]
\nHe was officially an employee of the British East india company. He did everything that british wanted
\nIs this a movie?
\nraja ram mohan roy is the goat
\nRaja Ram Mohan Roy is a Renaissance man of India.
\nMy man is the \ud83d\udc10
\nEverything fine and feel good, until religious text is picked , and they talk naham dehasmi(upnishads), man doesn't live for bread alone(bible), noone above service of God(quran) which strikes directly on ego , blind consumerism, and lazy habituated pleasures and asks to work on oneself !
