Sai Deepak is a lawyer who has taken up some very prominent cases, such as representing the deity of Sabarimala. The Christian approach to nature as a means of exploitation was fundamentally the opposite of that of Indic systems that lived in harmony with nature. At one point he quoted a western management author and remarked wryly – “You can at least trust me on this one – after all I am quoting a western author”. In a masterful manner, Sai Deepak traces the global history of colonialism, India's unfortunate tryst with it and, importantly, inquires its impact on the emergence of a colonial consciousness. Few combine the vision of a civilisational liberation, easy to invoke in malleable cultural respects, with the exacting juridical knowledge needed for a precise and workable paradigm shift deconstructing this lingering submission.

Part 3 of the book is particularly relevant in the context of recent developments such as the abrogation of Article 370 of the Indian Constitution, enactment of the CAA/NRC legislation etc.The next chapter brings forth another trend which came in the form of a greater urge to assert a sense of autonomy and be a sovereign and the same came at the form of Native elites, but the same suffered inherent limitations for a positive digression from the pre-established precepts of independence which revolved around politico-legal sphere could not take place. A mere acknowledgment (leave alone appreciation or assertion) of our indigenous Indic roots seems to trigger a fusillade of vitriol.

This book furnishes its theoretical framework in a sophisticated language understandable to all political scientists in the world.This temple forbids entry of women of reproductive age based on custom and legend of the deity who is worshipped as a brahmachari. Neither does it lie in his understanding of Christian nature and intent of the European Coloniser or in his ability to put it down in the form of a scholarly book. There is very little effort from the author to understand history in its own terms rather than looking at it through modern lens.

If you believe these stories should be told and those in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement remembered, join us!This is the first book of a trilogy where the author explores the roots and influence of European colonialism on the Indian state of Bharat. Traditionally, the colonies were forced to adopt legal mechanisms to preserve their integrity upon achieving independence to overcome the fissiparous tendencies created by the imposition of nation-statehood. This book brings a lot of clarity on state if affairs of Bharat and the sorry state that claims Bharats legacy but hates it to the core. Conflating the Devadasi tradition with prostitution, the Britishers equated temples with sites of prostitution and hence vociferously advocated a State takeover of the management and affairs.
