Description

One of Sangharakshita's most far-reaching contributions to modern Buddhism was giving shape to the Buddhist conversion movement begun by the great Indian reformer, Dr B.R. Ambedkar. In 1956, along with thousands of his followers, Ambedkar renounced the Hindu caste system - according to which they were 'untouchable' - and converted to Buddhism.
