Budha and Babasaheb Ambedkar pendant makes an inspirational spiritual pendant. Budha on Ashok leaf has special significance, as he attained nirvana under the Ashok tree. Babasaheb Ambedkar life was marked by his political activities; he became involved in campaigning and negotiations for India's independence, publishing journals, advocating political rights and social freedom for Dalits, and contributing significantly to the establishment of the state of India. In 1956 he converted to Buddhism, initiating mass conversions of Dalits. In 1990, the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, was posthumously conferred upon Ambedkar. Ambedkar's legacy includes numerous memorials and depictions in popular culture.
