    The best part of this particular episode taught me how Mahmud Ghazni's raid of the Somnath Temple and many others were found from his data source of raids and never from the Indian subcontinent and how the Britishers used it cunningly to create a rift through the divide and rule of Hindus and Muslims, while the Britishers perhaps had this strategy for almost every nation they colonized, and the joke is on us to continue to allow to be fooled by it even 1000 years later.

      Alberuni was highly respected and renowned Muslim of his era because he studied Greek science and Astro physics. Because it was the first time the Persians and the Turks learnt that the earth is round, not flat and that the sun revolves round the earth not the other way round. When he came to India, he couldn’t digest the fact that the Indians were way ahead in science mathematics (specially astrology).

And we still found their descriptions of culture traditions practices social higher archy with perks and privileges in today's society .Who kept and treated the other groups as slaves for a reason so they only can have wealth lands womens and power. Prostitutes naming them Devdasi, cutting the tongue of dalit for speaking like them and forcing their own women to burn themselves to death alive some justification at the name of culture traditions and religion ?

      They were the practices of that time. All such practices have changed & Hinduism is always open for changes rather than Christianity & Islam .
      Now, there is no Sati, no child marriages, no bigamy. Untouchability is almost vanished. Divorce & remarriage after divorce are common. Inter - caste marriages are common. Women of Hindu society are so free as they have become highly educated & compete with men in every field . They don't have restrictions regarding dress (like burqha). They can go to Temples unlike Muslim women who are not allowed in Masjid.
      So, now, Hindu religion is the only religion which is dropping the unwanted rules & practices & opening upto new scientific world.

    I remember reading a book by British author Alice Albinia (Empires of the Indus) wherein she wrote that Al Beruni's account of India was not actually negative but apparently so. She says that he found much that he liked but couched it in critical language because he feared Ghazni and his followers (he himself was their slave/PoW). She questioned the approach of Indian historians who says that Indian schools of thought were simply rotting at the time. How to know what is correct?

    • @Indian-xj5ww
      @Indian-xj5ww 10 місяців тому +5

      @gautamprakash9225 The first thing I suggest is to reread Alice Albinia’s account of Alberuni, as I did, and to notice that she isn’t saying what you are suggesting (also, Albinia is a journalist, not a historian). Second, it's not Indian historians alone who have interpreted Alberuni. Third, read Alberuni and realize that he published his book after Mahmud's death, and it even has several direct criticisms of Mahmud. For example, he accused Mahmud of ‘having failed in the duties of a protector of art and science’ at home, and also criticized his temple raids in India. This is significant. He was certainly not trying to please his boss by 'sounding critical' of the Hindus. His engagement with India was deeper. You can see logical and detailed reasoning behind his criticisms. There is no good reason to say that he wrote one thing but believed another. So I think your point is not quite a valid one.

    Al Beruni would have sung differently had he visited Bharat a half-a-millenia earlier and met Brahma Gupta, Aryabhatta, Varahamitra and the likes or went back deeper in time and shook hands with Susruta. Looks like the Brahminical dogmas swamped over scientific enquiry in latter periods. Science faced the same fate in the Islamic world. It is interesting to note that the exact opposite happened in the Western World where science was allowed to override the dogmas of the Church.

    Mediaeval Brahminism ne India ko capture karte hi India se science decline ho gaya yeh ek brutal fact hai jo ancient travellers bhi likh rahe hai . Aur aaj ke zoote Brahmins kehte hai ki ancient Brahmins ke science se morden science nikla 😂 ancient Brahmins smart the because tab Buddhists Universitys thi and science apne peak per tha . Mediaeval Brahmins Gapodi chand the . Pu re india ko barbaad kar ke rakh Diya brahmani system ne . Gurukulas me ghanta kuch baki nahi tha . Point noted Aarya bhut Buddhists Universitys me padha tha kisi Gurukul me nahi .

    Multiple Hindu Temples were built on Buddhist temple
    It’s common to have Rival Hindu kings destroying each other’s Hindu temple in similar lines of what , Islamic invaders sultans did to hindu temples

    A praiseworthy attempt to condense the history of South Asia into digestable bite-sized pieces. A little 'Amar, Akbar Anthony ' in its approach but why not? Rather that than Modi-ism extrapolated infinitely into th past and the future. Well done to all involved!
