Opis

In historical context Manu may be a mythical historical person. He is mentioned in the Vedas itself and is described as the law giver. The later commentators and law givers such as Yaska, Baudhayana, Apastamha, Samkara, often quote him and his works. So Manusmrti is a mirror of the society in its past present and future times and therefore can he held responsible for the condition of anyone anything in the present Hindu Indian society including women and Dalits. Its all-pervasive authority derives its strength from the sacred and secular powers of times including our own. Manusmrti has been placed between 200BC-200 AD by the scholars rather a very long time for a person to exist in his earthly life. However this time in the history of the Indian nation is of permanent importance.
