India saw from the beginning, and, even in her ages of reason and her age of increasing ignorance, she never lost hold of the insight, that life cannot be rightly seen in the sole light, cannot be perfectly lived in the sole power of its externalities.

That which we call the Hindu religion is really the Eternal religion because it embraces all others.

India is the meeting place of the religions and among these Hinduism alone is by itself a vast and complex thing, not so much a religion as a great diversified and yet subtly unified mass of spiritual thought, realization and aspiration.

Watch the too indignantly righteous. Before long you will find them committing or condoning the very offence which they have so fiercely censured.
