Weber, Individualism and Hindu Modernity

V van Bijlert - In Search of the Spirits of Capitalism: World Religions …, 2026
This chapter explores modernity as individual and collective emancipation. Western Protestantism (in different garbs) may have globally instilled a pronounced mentality of individual choice and collective emancipation. Protestantism seems to equal modernity, if we follow the Weberian idea of the latter to its logical conclusion. As a tool it is helpful to understand the emergence of what we may term Hindu modernity. This term is very broad and within the context of nineteenth century colonial India refers to an extremely influential innovation begun by Raja Rammohun Roy (1772–1833). In Rammohun’s writings and socio-religious activism we can trace the relative validity of the modernity thesis on Protestantism also for ‘reformed and innovated’ Hinduism. It is shown how Weber’s concept of Protestantism (understood as the strong internalization of a certain religious mentality) can help interpret the process of modernization and innovation in Hinduism of the last one and half centuries.… In the writings of Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, and in the writings and practices of Swami Vivekananda and Sri Aurobindo, world-renunciation is real and physical. Bankim describes Hindu monks while Swami Vivekananda was an actual initiated …
