Excerpt from Reflections on the Problems of India

You will remember on a certain occasion when Boswell was indulging in one of his heroics, Johnson turned round and said, My dear friend, clear your mind of cant. I believe at the present moment no sounder advice could be given to the Educated Classes in India than in those memorable words of the bluff old Doctor, and my efforts in the following pages are solely or mainly directed towards assisting my Countrymen in clearing their minds of cant.

One thing I wish you to bear in mind is that I do not pretend to solve the Problems of India as most other writers have attempted to do before me; I only venture to give my reflections on them, or rather, the thoughts that have crossed my mind while reading all the wit and wisdom that the leaders of Indian thought have so lavished upon them.
