This book examines the main course of history of Dasnami sect and their past service and present positions in the life of the Indian nation, as an entire course of Hindu life and thought after the age of Buddhism has been dominated by this sect, argues historian Jadunath Sarkar. It appears from the foreword by K. M. Munshi that the title of this book should have been Dashnami Sampradaya in which some members were in the service of the state some others were nagas, naked ascetics. Hence an essential-reading for all those interested in the subject.
Judunath Sarkar was an Bengali aristocrat and historian best remembered for his historical works, including: A History of Jaipur, Military History of India, A History of Aurangzib (in 5 volumes), Studies in Mughal India, and Mughal Administration.A graduate of Presidency College, Calcutta and Calcutta University, he served as the Vice Chancellor of Calcutta University and was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Indian Empire and knighted by the acting Viceroy, Lord Goschen.
