On 14 October 1956, less than two months before he died, B.R. Ambedkar, the chief architect of India’s Constitution and one of the towering intellects of modern India, converted to Buddhism along with some 365,000 of his followers in Nagpur after a traditional ceremony. The conversion to the religion which had fascinated him for a long time and he had been studying for years, was one of the pivotal moments in the modern Buddhist movement in India.

After a careful assessment of the major contemporary religions in India, he arrived at the resolution that these conventions couldn’t successfully elevate the economic wellbeing of his distant individuals. Therefore, he proposed a genuine religion for him and his unapproachable individuals. To begin with, he needed to rise above the constraints of nineteenth-century mystical talk. Second, he moved away from Mahatma Phule’s deism and Ranade’s neo-bhagvat Dharma, and he moored his situation in the Buddhist custom. Third, he offered an innovative comprehension of Eastern and Western religions. Fourth, he characterized amiability as the profound quality. Fifth, with his regulation of Dharma, he also uplifted secular values in India over the enmity of custom and advancement of reason and confidence. Sixth, by mixing the Buddha’s task of dukkhamukti (freedom from suffering) with Marx’s venture of freedom from abuse, he demonstrated the best approach to battle rank and class inequalities. He underlined the Buddha’s message of religion: “The focal point of religion laid in the connection between men a lot, not between man and God. The reason for religion is to show man how he ought to act towards different men so that all might be cheerful.” Hence, as indicated by him, religion is to clarify the starting point of the world.

In the article “Buddha and the Future of His Religion” Ambedkar’s view of a genuine religion comprises of four attributes: (1) it must remain the administering standard in members of the general public in the feeling of ethical quality; (2) it must be as per reason which is only another name for science on the off chance that it is to work; (3) its ethical code must perceive the crucial principles of freedom, uniformity, and organization; and (4) it must not purify or honor destitution. He said further that no religion but Buddhism can fulfill every one of these tests, and it is the main religion the world can have.
