I am not an expert on Dr.B.R.Ambedkar and his works and in fact have only recently started to study the same and I share here one quote of Dr.B.R.Ambedkar that I found very inspiring :

Freedom of mind is the real freedom. A person, whose mind is not free though he may not be in chains, is a slave, not a free man. One, whose mind is not free, though he may not be in prison, is a prisoner and not a free man. One whose mind is not free though alive, is no better than dead. Freedom of mind is the proof of one’s existence.
