God, Religion and Indians : A SocioPolitical Commentary on Contemporary India

Is religion for the sake of man or is it the man for the sake of religion? happens to be a common dilemma in contemporary India.From exploring the relationship between neuroscience and spiritual experiences to a theological discussion on stereotyped ideas of homosexuality, inter-faith marriage, conversion, etc; this book tries to explain the concept of God in Indian society. In India, the discourse of politics has always been associated with religion. It gives a different approach to the problem of communalism from a theological perspective by presenting a comparative study of different scriptures across religions. From explaining the different beliefs like henotheism, monotheism, and panetheism to discussing the suffix of white mans burden, this book goes in-depth to understand the reasons, causes, and solutions to the problem of communalism in India. Is India truly secular, as it so claims?Where do we draw the line between communal politics and identity politics?Should a modern man rely on scriptures written centuries back or on his intellect?Is Satan an evil atheist or anti-establishment writer?Is religion made for discipline and uniting a society or to divide it?Is religion bound by the functions of an individual or is it meant to bind the individual consigns? This book is not a lecture on righteousness but a discussion where India is talking to itself, facing a mirror.
