A New Vision of History

About A New Vision of History

The present work tries to present a new vision of history. The traditional thinking about history as a mere record of past events needs a re-examination, if we intend to find out the real significance, worth and use of story. According to the author, history should be understood as a struggle between spiritual and non-spiritual or constructive and destructive forces for ascendency. If the non-spiritual forces become dominant, the world is thrown in the cockpit of suffering and sorrow; but if the spiritual forces become dominant the world experiences peace and prosperity. Every individual can play his sterling role in this conflict. The work presents a rationale of human happiness and prosperity through history. It deserves a perusal by every educated reader. Dr. R.N.
