Sorry, I disagree my choice of words is wrong.@pmaitra You are building a case on one wrong choice of word of a poster and have started your slandering on many people who buy books online and a Author of four books Rajiv Malhotra.
Rajiv Malhotra is an achiever who take on his critics at any given platform and opportunity with most dignified way.
You may be a good reader of Max Muller therefore you deserve more authority on him than others who have been making sweeping statements against him. By the same logic you haven't read Rajiv Malhotra therefore your slandering with red bold alphabets is as moronic as anyone else is doing in this thread.
Now, if you want to broaden the topic, then please consider the era when Max Müller lived. It was an era when general European attitudes about their colonies was condescending, yet Max Müller, went against the general European attitudes and highlighted the qualities of India and Indians. Max Müller pointed out the bias certain British officials had about India and Indians. If we compare Max Müller against the majority of Europeans at that time, I see clearly that Max Müller had a benevolent and admiring attitude towards India and Indians.I was countering @Hari Sud, who said none of Max Müller's opinion about India was flattering. All I had to do is give one example to prove him wrong, and I have done so.
If the new generation get carried away by Sanskrit texts...Commies will have their manifesto in Sanskrit in a few years..: A group of 60 Chinese intellectuals have enrolled at a Buddhist Institute for a free summer camp to study Sanskrit to understand the religious and yoga texts better as the ancient Indian language is becoming popular among the new generation of Chinese in the Communist nation.
