Abstract

To be totally free one needs to be totally aware, because our bondage is rooted in our unconsciousness; it does not come from the outside. Nobody can make you unfree. You can be destroyed but freedom cannot be taken away unless you give it away”. Osho, 'Insights for a new way of living'. This is the major issue of understanding the roots of slavery. Mankind loosing the thought of their individual existence has gone topsy-turvy in unrealistic beliefs and adherence. The facts and issues of the subaltern consciousness speak of this situational psychosis. Many writers from the 18 and 19 centuries have focused their writings on this issue of bondage and the crisis to overcome and to create a legacy has been the truth behind subaltern studies and its perspectives to literary achievement.
