This presentation will be centred around a series of three talks Dharampalji gave on “Some aspects of early Indian Society and Polity and their Relevance to the present” during Jan 4–6, 1986 at the Indian Association for Cultural Freedom, Pune. These talks were later published in New Quest [Nos. 56, 57 and 58] and also translated into Hindi and published in Jansatta in 12 parts during March-April 1986. They were also translated from English into Tamil a year later and published in book form. Soon thereafter, the pieces published by Jansatta were brought together in book form under the title, “Angrejon se Pahle ka Bharat” by Satabdi Prakasan, Vidisha, 1988. These lectures were also published in Marathi as “Paramparik Bharatiya Samajik Va Rajkiya Vyavastha Ani Nava Bharatachi Ubharani” as well as in Malayalam in somewhat briefer versions.
​
The full text of the three lectures is available as Ch.1 of the publication http://www.dharampalshodhpeeth.in/literature/Essays_On_Tradition,_.pdf
