“Whatever sphere of the human mind you may
select for your special study, whether it be
language or religion or mythology or philosophy,
whether it be law or customs, primitive art, or
science, you have to go to India, because," he
said, "some of the most valuable and instructive
material of the history of man are treasured up in
India, and India only".
