But, in spite, nay, rather in consequence of this, it is right that an attempt should be made to invite even the most disinterested to an inspection of these places of industry, and to point out, piece by piece, the work, or at least part of the work, that has been done there.

Download or read book The Religions of India written by Allan Menzies and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religions of India: Brahmanism and Buddhism I'he study of religions outside of Christianity has now overcome many of the prejudices which hindered its earlier growth. It has no longer to contend with the suspicion that the effort to understand other religions will make us attach less value to our own. On the contrary, the tendency of the study of religions is seen more and more to strengthen the hold of Christianity upon us. The student of this science is led to see very clearly how all men need religion and have provided themselves in one way or another with access to'the powers above them. But it happens very rarely that even the most sympathetic study of a foreign religion leads anyone to prefer it to his own. In contemplating other faiths, we do, it is true, become aware that some features of Christianity are stronger than others and do more to qualify it to spread over the world. We have to distinguish between the essence of Christianity, in which lies the secret of its power, and its accidental features. That surely must confirm and not weaken the tie that binds us to Christ. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From thy sources have come the languages of the world, in which men have expressed the thoughts arising in their minds - thy word-symbols have made possible advanced thinking and expression of thought.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from India and Her People I Am very glad to learn that the course of lectures, recently delivered before the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences by Swami Abhedananda, is to be published.

They contain precisely what the American wants to know about India. Delivered, as they were, by a native of India, they are not colored by foreign prejudices. I am impressed, by what I heard of the lectures, with the fact that in the hurry and bustle of our Western civilization we have a great deal to learn from the East.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Proceedings of the Convention of Religions in India, Vol. 1 of 2 As promised in the Preface to Vol. I, we have made an attempt to give an outline of the evolution of religious ideas beyond India in our Introduction to the present volume. The relation of the Aryan religion to the rest of the religions represented in these volumes has been traced out side by side with their indepen dent growths, from the lives and sayings of the Teachers of the respective religions. But owing to the vastness of the subject and consequent want of space we might not have been able to do full justice to the different systems of religion dealt with. We therefore crave the indulgence of our readers for any short-comings that might have crept into it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Religion in India: The Rede Lecture Delivered in the Senate-House on June 17, 1891 I would ask you to remark that we have here at once, at the first word, a significant indication of the peculiar character and compo sition of Hinduism. This triple meaning or connotation of the term Hindu shews the com plexity of its origin, shews how Hinduism is twisted deep among the roots of Indian society, how it is a matter of birthright and inheritance; signifies that it means a civil community, quite as much as a religious association - that a man does not become a Hindu, but is born into Hinduism.
