Swami Dayanand Saraswati (1824-1883), the founder of Arya Samaj and
author of many works including Satyarth Prakash, that is known as
his magnum opus is known for his call of back to Vedas. He was an
aggressive proponent of Aryan and Vedic supremacy and founded a
sect called "Arya Samaj" that literally means "Society of Nobles."
He was the one who started "Shudhhi" or reconversion ceremonies to
bring back Hindus who have converted to other religions. He gave a
new interpretation to Vedas never heard before to suit his agenda
of Vedic or Aryan supremacy. He was a polarizing figure and the
legacy he left behind can be seen in today's Modis, Togadias, and
Advanis. His hostility towards other religions can be gauged from
the words he used to describe anything non-Vedic. He called Jesus a
savage, Guru Nanak an ignorant hypocrite and Muhammad as
pugnacious. However not much is known about his personal life and
whatever information has been made available is contradictory. This
book reveals the enigmatic Swami, his venomous teachings and his
fancy interpretation of Vedas from the horse's own mouth.
