Part 2 – Catastrophic influence of foreign invaders
After the muslim conquest of the subcontinent in 12th century, this open and rich culture started slowly diminishing under force from those in power. And when the British ruled India, there was a systematic and deliberate effort to erode the culture and create self-hatered, let by Lord McCauley’s education system which replaced the gurukul system of education. Instead of explaining why, I would like you to watch these videos by Rajiv Dixit and get enlightened :-) These are in Hindi, so if you don’t know the language, please ask someone who does, to translate.
