In this video we visit the utterly degraded condition into which the Hindu religion had fallen by the 1800s, because of which it became necessary for an Avatar like Sri Ramakrishna to take birth, so that the downward spiral of Hinduism could be reversed and the Hindu religion restored back to its Vedic health and vitality.

The reason for this downfall in Hinduism was that through the Middle Ages horrific customs had crept into the Hindu religion, which were directly opposed to the noble teachings of the scriptures. These included the caste system, child marriage, polygamy and also the practice of Sati in which helpless widows were often burnt alive on the funeral pyre of their husbands.

So in this video we shall dive deep in order to fathom the extent of degradation and loss of vitality suffered by the Hindu society through the Middle Ages. A direct consequence of which was that India fell into a prolonged period of slavery under foreign rule - first under Islamic invaders and later under the British.

Now once we have grasped the extent of degradation suffered by Hinduism, we will then be in a position to appreciate the tremendous work Sri Ramakrishna did to put the derailed train of Hinduism back on track for ascendancy towards Satyug (topic of upcoming video) - an act which ultimately resulted in the freedom of India.
