Abstract
Dr. Ambedkar’s concept of Dhamma aims to address the chief source of conflict in human life and helps provide long-lasting solutions. It also aims to remove multiple obstructions created by human being against another human being. Thus, Dhamma proposes to ensure conflict resolution, ecological balance, social inclusion, material–spiritual gains, universal brotherhood and unity among global human. Emancipation is sought and assured in this life only. It does not talk of issues pertaining to life after death. The article tries to explain how Dr. Ambedkar makes an entirely novel interpretation of Religion whom he calls Dhamma. He exercises to discover and invent a Dhamma easily understood and acceptable to everyone globally. His biggest contribution was to liberate Dhamma from Religion— Mazhab narratives. He wanted to set Dhamma free from ignorance and blind faith. In the process, he aimed to unshackle Dhamma from the concepts of God, soul and absolute idea. His Dhamma is a means to realize the fullness of human life. It is ever changing, lively and full of hopes and aspirations. It generates inquisitiveness and yearning for knowledge. Dhamma is a complete programme of transformation and change. Dhamma is a science of spiritualism which can be perceived, felt and achieved in this life only.
