Excerpt from A Discourse on Occasion of the Death of Rajah Rammohun Roy
So came the inquiring philosopher; and what bigot shall say that, so coming, he was not accepted? Like another character in this same record, he walked with God. He already manifested that spirit Of de votion which permanently possessed him which was neither weak originally, through the imperfection of his knowledge, nor polluted afterwards by the false fires of controversy in which he was compelled to engage; but ever strong, - shining steadily even through the last days of silence and darkness, when his life ebbed away. This is religion; this is Christianity in spirit and in substance, whatever its appellation. Nor is it improbable, that, by a direct influence, as well as a native affinity, his faith was linked to that of the patriarch, in the words of whose history we have ventured to describe his character and destiny. Through the traditions, both of India and of Arabia, (3) might something of the spirit of the Father of the faithful descend upon the Indian Re former; like the mantle of the ascending Elijah.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores how the life of Raja Rammohun Roy reflected the social and religious conflicts of the world he lived in. Roy was a nineteenth-century Indian reformer and founder of the Brahmo Samaj, a monotheistic religious movement that rejected the caste system and advocated for the rights of women. The author discusses how Roy's work as a social and religious reformer was inspired by his own struggles with his Brahmin heritage, the British colonial rule in India, and the dominant religions of his time. The author also examines how Roy's writings and teachings on social justice, religious tolerance, and the importance of education and progress continue to resonate with readers today. Ultimately, this book is a reminder of the power of one person to make a difference in the world and the importance of continuing to fight for social justice and religious freedom.
