[Guest guest]

It is taught here in the West that society began eighteen hundred

years ago, with the New Testament. Before that there was no society.

That may be true with regard to the West, but it is not true as

regards the whole world. Often while I was lecturing in London, a

very intellectual and intelligent friend of mine would argue with me,

and one day after using all his weapons against me, he suddenly

exclaimed, " But why did not your Rishis come to England to teach us? "

I replied, " Because there was no England to come to. Would they

preach to the forests? "
