Dans le cadre de la c\u00e9l\u00e9bration de l\u2019arriv\u00e9e de Pandit Atmaram \u00e0 Maurice en 1912 magazine et livres glorifient sa m\u00e9moire. C\u2019\u00e9tait un homme d\u2019une grande lucidit\u00e9 et d\u2019un observateur aigu de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 coloniale. Pandit Atmaram n\u2019\u00e9tait pas seulement un ambassadeur culturel, politique succ\u00e9dant \u00e0 Manilal Doctor mais un anthropologue, un moraliste.<\/span><\/p>\n

History of Mauritius et Hindu Mauritius<\/span><\/strong> sont des t\u00e9moins d\u2019une \u00e9poque de mutations dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9. C\u2019est l\u2019histoire d\u2019une communaut\u00e9, c\u2019est l\u2019anthropologie avec les modes de vie, l\u2019attachement aux coutumes indiennes, les temples comme Draupadi Ammen de Terre Rouge, Shiwala de Triolet ou Pooja Ghar Sadgoo Sangam. Dans le chapitre 19 – pages 114 \u00e0 118 – l\u2019auteur met l\u2019accent sur \u00ab the new era for the community \u00bb. C\u2019est Manilal Doctor qui encourage \u00e0 \u00e9crire, \u00e0 voice out one\u2019s views<\/em> dans le journal Hindustani<\/em>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pandit Atamaram rappelle comment les articles \u201con patriotism, progress of the community, duties for the Indians, their present condition, their ways to march towards progress, their religion and politics, went on guiding the Indian people in the country.\u201d <\/span>Il montre l\u2019importance de l\u2019\u00e9ducation et de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des chances. Apprendre les Vedas, les traditions, les l\u00e9gendes est bien mais apprendre aussi les langues \u2013 Hindi, English, French — est un plus<\/em> pour le progr\u00e8s. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pandit Atmaram indique que l\u2019homme \u00e9duqu\u00e9 doit \u00eatre avant tout un guide: \u201cIf we want to develop our nation, if we want to save our community, we must educate our womenfolk and engage them in the activities of nation building.\u201d <\/span>Manilal Doctor envoy\u00e9 par Mahatma Gandhi est le moteur qui fait d\u00e9marrer le mouvement de l\u2019Arya Samaj avec l\u2019aide des garde-prisons punjabis. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pandit Atmaram ne rappelle pas seulement des dates historiques, des noms de gouverneurs comme Mah\u00e9 de Labourdonnais, De Souillac, Sir Robert Farquhar, ne donne pas seulement une esquisse de \u2018Mauritian leaders in the Indo-Mauritian community\u2019 comme Sri R. Canabady, Seth Ibrahim Bahemia, Sri Dhunputh Lallah ou Sri Hurryparsad Seewoodharry Bhugut mais il ajoute des anecdotes, des l\u00e9gendes sur Pari Talao, sur la princesse malgache Beti, sur l\u2019accident du train \u00e0 Pailles ou encore l\u2019attaque contre Dr Laurent. On d\u00e9couvre la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 coloniale avec ses probl\u00e8mes, ses souffrances, ses coutumes et ses luttes jusqu\u2019aux ann\u00e9es o\u00f9 des mouvements (Arya Samaj, Young Men Hindu Association \u00e0 Port Louis, Hindi Pracharini Sabha \u00e0 Montagne Longue) voient le jour.<\/span><\/p>\n

C\u2019est Arya Samaj avec son premier journal Arya Patrika<\/em> et en 1909 The Hindustani<\/em> et aussi un adviser<\/em> en la personne de Manilal Doctor qui donnent un souffle nouveau \u00e0 la communaut\u00e9 indienne. Il ne fallait plus se croiser les bras mais bouger avec de nouvelles m\u00e9thodes de travail. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pandit Atmaram raconte comment se passent les pr\u00eaches, comment les petites r\u00e9unions se d\u00e9roulent et comment des collectes s\u2019organisent avec aussi la participation des shrimatis<\/em> comme Bagyhawati Devi, Sita Devi et de Miss Narayan Diljor \u00ab who was the first Senior Cambridge passed lady \u00bb. D\u2019autres grandes figures de l\u2019Arya Samaj au 20e si\u00e8cle \u00e9mergent pour consolider le travail ; citons Pandit Gayasingh, Pandit C.Kistoe, G. Chuttur, Dr J. Seegobin, les fr\u00e8res Bissoondoyal, M.Mohit, B.Ramlallah, les fr\u00e8res Boolell, Callichurn, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Les livres ont une valeur documentaire sur une \u00e9poque qui est une lanterne pour les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations de nos jours. Comprendre l\u2019importance de leadership, les skills<\/em> pour convaincre, les combats et les difficult\u00e9s, l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des chances est plus qu\u2019une n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 et tout cela ne s\u2019acquiert pas en un jour.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
