common good. Hinduism, the oldest and the most widely
spread faith in India, must take her place with the sister
faiths, and must no longer stand apart in social isolation.
Let her cast away the unessentials, and cling only to the
essentials—the Immanence of God and the Solidarity of
Man. All gracious customs and elevating traditions may
be followed by her children, but not imposed on the un-
willing, nor used as barriers to prevent social union. So
shall she become a unifier instead of a divider, and again
assert her glory as the most liberal of religions, the
model of an active spirituality which inspires intellectual
vigour, moral purity, and national prosperity.
