What happens when a genius is remembered more for his statue than his strategy?

In Beyond the Blue, acclaimed author and systems thinker Sandeep Chavan takes readers on a powerful journey through the life, mind, and misunderstood legacy of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar—India's most quoted yet least implemented intellectual force.

This is not a biography.
This is not a tribute.
This is a forensic decoding of how we buried the brilliance of a nation-builder beneath slogans, ceremonies, and selective memory.

From his radical constitutional vision to his unflinching critique of caste, from his economic foresight to his philosophical reinvention of Buddhism, Beyond the Blue unpacks the unfinished revolution of a mind too advanced for its time—and perhaps, even for ours.

Why this book matters now:

  • We live in an age of digital inequality, identity wars, and hyper-symbolism.
  • Ambedkar predicted these patterns—and designed solutions we've still not applied.
  • While he's been turned into an icon, his true contributions to law, labor, education, and ethics remain politically diluted and intellectually sidelined.
  • What you'll discover inside:

  • How Ambedkar's ideas were manipulated by both his opponents and his followers
  • Why Nehru and Ambedkar never aligned—but never needed to be enemies
  • How Ambedkar's thought applies to AI ethics, caste in tech, and digital discrimination
  • Why India still celebrates the man—but fears the mind
  • Sandeep, known for his sharp insights on politics, power, and human behavior, does what few have dared:
    He strips Ambedkar of labels, and reintroduces him as a living framework—a systems architect whose ideas are still waiting to be implemented.

    "We built statues.
    But we never built the society he designed."

    This book is for:

  • Thinkers tired of binary politics
  • Citizens questioning ceremonial justice
  • Educators, leaders, and students seeking Ambedkar beyond textbooks
  • Whether you're in India or abroad, Beyond the Blue offers a universal meditation on truth, justice, and the dangerous comfort of forgetting great minds too soon.

    Read it not to remember Ambedkar—Read it to finally understand what he wanted us to build.
