Dr. Nagarajan  has since worked on his books on Krishna's Gita as Rajavidya and Manusmriti as Sociopolitical Constitution and on Upanishads and Hindu Political Sociology and Badarayana's Brahma-sutras as Neo-Vedic Sociopolitical Constitution and Transition to Post-Vedic Social Polity, Dharmarajya, Dharmaraja and Rajadharma based on the Mahabharata. His findings and interpretations are presented here as books on Passage to Hindu State.

Gita enjoys the same status as The Bible and The Koran. In fact it is a major contribution of Krishna (who has later been deified) to sociopolitical thought and reorganization of the social polity of Ancient India. Dr. Nagarajan's previous works deal with the transition from the pre-varna Vedic society of Ancient India to the post-Vedic varna society which survives to this day. Every one of the seven hundred verses of the Gita has been examined critically with reference to this transition and creation of a new rational social polity. All religiosity and ethnicity have been kept out in order to arrive at a schemata that may be applicable to all societies and civilizations. Many misconceptions about ancient India and myths and stereotypes built on it have been dispelled in these works including the present one.
Manusmriti, the most discussed Hindu law is being re-examined from a rationalist angle by Dr. Nagarajan in his new work.

As with his previous works, the new research by Dr. Nagarajan is expected to be immensely useful to research scholars and students in Indology and ancient civilizations and also the students of comparative polity and religion.

Dr. Nagarajan has taught at Hislop College, Nagpur, India (1955-66). He was Principal of Porwal College, Kamptee, Nagpur (1966-90).
