Essays on the theme of phenomenon of Godmen, Religion and Liberation

 

We are witnessing the times when Religion is dominating the political and social phenomenon. With this there has also occurred a process of mushrooming of Godmen of different hues. These Godmen are a strong influence on the society in contemporary India. This book is a compilation of essays which cover different facets of religion through ages, the diverse roles played by religion, its role in present society and the role of Godmen. We see on one side there is a rise in the politics in the name of religion and on the other there is increase in the orthodoxy and conservatism.
