History of Dharmashastra (Ancient and Mediaeval Religious and Civil Law in India) v6.c82.602

v6.c82.602

Some of the previous volumes of this History of Dharmaśāstra have been criticized in two different ways by critics Some said that the author should have stopped at describing what transformations several of the topics dealt with underwent in the course of centuries and that no personal opinions should have been expressed about what changes should be made in the present or in future Another set of scholars complained that the author should have expressed his personal views in many matters on which he expresses no definite opinion or does not advance a definite theory of his own. Bearing in mind these criticisms the author proposes to indicate his own personal views on Indian Astrology in relation to Dharmaśāstra.
