Karl Marx, Charles Darwin, and the Indian Renaissance: Influence on 20th Century Worldview

Karl Marx said that material conditions of existence determine our consciousness, while Charles Darwin proposed the theory of evolution through natural selection. Both thinkers significantly shaped 20th-century thought. Their ideas emerged during the British Empire’s exploitation of India, where the Indian Renaissance sought to revive indigenous philosophical and spiritual wisdom against colonial suppression.

Sri Aurobindo, a key figure in the Indian Renaissance, contrasted Western materialism with the spiritual insights of the Vedas and Upanishads, offering an alternative worldview.
