Summary
This is a fit occasion to remember and also remind our fellow-men that the Hinduism of Gandhiji is not that of the temples and priests of rituals practised by the orthodox Hindus for the living and the dead of absurd caste-rules in the matter of dining marriage and untouchability. [...] And " the high and the best way thither is run by desires and not by paces of feet." C. T. K. CHARI" A NOTE ON THE ABOVE Shri C. T. K. Chari does well to recognize in his pregnant article that “ the conscious mind is but the superficies of the Self ” if indeed it be not better defined as the instrment of the latter ; as also to ditinguish between the psychic and the spiritual so commonly [...] His theory of the possible persitence of mental images apart from the mind of their author and their endowment with " a kind of force ' of their own " varying with the intensity of the emotion at the time they were generated is very much in line with the Theosophical teaching. [...] The discord of today and the fantastic motions which accompany it—of which the " jitter-bug " is the most idiotic in the full meaning of the word—are clear indications of the clash of vibrations in the astral or thought world which have led to the most appalling and universal wars in the world's long and troubled history. [...] The only way to achieve this end is to reduce to a minimum the preoccupation with the needs of the body and to liberate the inner life of the spirit through meditation and prayer.
