Mosaics From India, Talks About India, Its Peoples, Religions and Customs (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Mosaics From India, Talks About India, Its Peoples, Religions and Customs
Wander with me through Hindustan - the land of varied peoples, tongues and climes, of romance and of poetry, and yet the land of sorrow, poverty and false gods.
We shall wish to see old temples, wherein, since long ago, these peoples have searched after God, drift 'ing into strange, idolatrous worship, not finding the Living One. Here and there we shall listen to talks by the wayside, in out-caste huts or in curtained zenanas. We shall go out into the beautiful country and, standing beside Mother Ganges, see the trees so rich in blossom, delight our eyes with the beauty of old palaces and visit tombs and mosques. Yet, most of all, we shall hope to get near the people at their vocations, in their ceremonies and in their worship near to the heart of India. And, as we see and know these people better, knowledge will inspire pity, then sympathy, sometimes admiration, and all will give place to love. They will be no longer barbarians, but simply strayed brothers of our common family. And, having learned to love them, we must long to bring them home to the family reunion, for Love never faileth.
