Excerpt from The Making of Modern India
The aim of this book is to provide some material by which to estimate the character of the forces that are making the new India, and the direction in which these forces are carrying her. They are of many kinds - poli tical, social, religious. Some of the most powerful are the ancient forms of thought and of belief which modern influences are modifying but by no means eliminating. At the centre of all these, influencing them and in fluenced by them, are those outstanding personalities, Indian in the texture of their minds and souls, who are leading their people into the unknown land of to-morrow. To conjecture what that future will be, to help in any way in forecasting what under wise guidance it may be, these are fascinating and baffling tasks. The fascination of them is not always realized as it should be by the British people upon whom lies the duty of undertaking them and so of opening a way for the advance together of England and India, as comrades and friends, With minds firm fixed upon the road To freedom - road that ne'er can weary one.
