NDIA'S ANCIENT PAST BY R.S. SHARMA 📚
🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠
⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪
🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢

The thought of genesis of India always triggered me and neither movies nor tv shows
completely answered my questions.
So I picked up this book “India’s Ancient past” to get the
clear picture of India without any Partiality in work.
✨
This book starts in the right order i.e. From Harappa times till medieval history and each phase
is described with its Rise, fall and how was the political and economic order was at that time.
✨
Do you know? The word HINDU is derived from Sanskrit word SINDHU and in Iran the use
*H* in place of *S *so it eventually became HINDU and then HINDUSTAN.
✨
It covers topic like Aryan race, Various Invasions, the inception of religion, detailed explanation
of each and every Dynasty.
✨
This Book basically breaks the myth about India that the world had formed earlier.

India has
contributed to Religion, Philosophical systems, Craft and technology, Polity, Science and
Mathematics and may more.
✨
I mean we have Aryabhata in AD 476-500 who formulated the area the triangle how come EIC
(East India Comp.) claimed that they educated us or they civilized us?
✨
This book is totally an eye-opener but the way it is written feels like NCERT book so if you are
genuinely interested in History then it’s a must-read otherwise you’ll leave this one in middle for

I got original book and It's good in condition when I receive it. But there are some misprints among the letters which don't much trouble to interesting readers. Besides that everything is alright.
