Excerpt from Natural Religion in India: The Rede Lecture Delivered in the Senate-House on June 17, 1891I would ask you to remark that we have here at once, at the first word, a significant indication of the peculiar character and compo sition of Hinduism. This triple meaning or connotation of the term Hindu shews the com plexity of its origin, shews h0w Hinduism is twisted deep among the roots of Indian society, how it is a matter of birthright and inheritance, signifies that it means a civil community, quite as much as a religious association - that a man does not become a Hindu, but is born into Hinduism.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
