Subject: Re: Manu Samhita Copy
Recently I had gone to World book fair New Delhi, and
I think I had seen the Manu Smriti by Motilal Banarasi
Das publications, may be the concerned student can
check up with their catalogue.
(As a side point: Laws of manu Smriti were written
at a time when the whole socio-cultural environment
was quite different, a person blindly trying to
consider Manu Samhita out of the cultural context is
bound to get a deformed picture (perhaps a barbaric
one) of the Vedic age and the culture. This was one of
the mistakes (perhaps a deliberated mistake) done by
some of the early 20th century western commentators on
Vedic literatures, many of whom had the vested
interest of proving the superiority of Christianity
and the biblical gospel over the Vedic Literatures,
fortunately, now the real picture is getting gradually
restored by the arduous efforts of some of the Indian
Scholarly authors)
