THEOSOPHY OVER ALL
THE ESSENTIAL UNITY OF ALL RE. LIGIONS. By Bhagavan Das. The Kashi Vidya-Pitha, Benares, NDIA has conquered all her conquerors, millennium after millennium; all except the indigestible one she has just spewed out. Pandit Das (M.A., D. Litt.) in these 682 pages of packed quotation in several languages (even the insideand I don’t mean flap-of the dustcover is closely printed) intends to demonstrate that there is an enormous common factor ift all the world’s historic religions; and that this coincides with the highbrow form of Hinduism called Theosophy. Thus the lamb swallows all lions. 4 While there is much garftilous wisdom in both the author’s multi-lingual quotations arid his own thin red line of connecting atgument, more people than the few who ate scholars in Islam or Zoroastrianism. will doubt the ‘success of his undertaking. For quotations from the Hebrew and Christian scriptures afte altogether too sparse; and those that do appear are too frequently misquotations, or have to/be prompted to say the right thing by having extra words inserted into them. enema!
