“How Invaders and Rulers in India Left Its History”
Part of OLLI Emory University Continuing Education.
Instructor: Chaplain Manhar Valand, PharmD, MS
This course will cover the following questions: how rulers converted Hindus over last 1,000 years to leave their mark on Indian History; why Islamic invaders documented death & destruction and left records and chronicles in Arabic; who wrote what; how did Indian History get altered forever?; and can the oldest lessons of tolerance and respect from the East be taught to the West? Greeks, Huns, Portuguese, French, British, and aliens all came to seek wealth in India. Today, these same Indian aliens learn their lessons well, seek fortunes, migrate & travel all over the world. What do they bring - something quintessential. Is it an accident that they blend everywhere easily? Is it this for common good? What do Indians have to say about those who live in the spirit of learning?
