It is not an easy task to decode Babasaheb's thoughts...And while I was finding it as difficult as possible to decode and write in a book, for several reasons, a tsunami of thoughts was scaring me. There are many controversies in publishing a commentary, explanation, or 'decoding' based on Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar's book 'Buddha and His Dhamma' in the form of a book. These dangers are more evident in the context of the criticism of the original text and the special aspects of Ambedkar's role. There are differences of opinion among the followers of Navayana (Ambedkarite Buddhism) and traditional Buddhism (e.g., Theravada), which can lead to tension or misunderstanding between the two groups. (Which already seems to be widespread.) Dr Ambedkar created "Navayana" or Neo-Buddhism, which was for the benefit of society and is therefore spiritually very different from the original Buddhism.
