Preview An Honorable Heritage: The Pandita Ramabai Story in Her Own Words
Description:
“I had never read
anything like this in the religious books of the Hindus.” After years of
searching for something more than the hopeless existence her religion
offered to those not born into a high caste, Pandita had at last
discovered someone who could uplift the downtrodden women of India—and
every land. “To me, who but a few moments ago ‘sat in the region and
shadow of death, light had sprung up’ (Matthew 4:16).” In An Honorable
Heritage, Pandita Ramabai tells her story of being born into the
privileged Brahman caste and leaving tradition behind for something far
better—the light and hope she found in Christ.
Pandita Ramabai, called “the most controversial Indian woman of her time,” was a social reformer, an advocate for the emancipation of women, and a pioneer in education. She spoke seven languages and translated the Bible into her mother tongue, Marathi. In appreciation of her work for the advancement of Indian women, the Indian government issued a commemorate stamp of Pandita Ramabai in 1989.
