Excerpt from Sketches From Sikh HistoryWith all 'our boasted refinements, how' gross our appetites and tastes and how dull our susceptibilities! We drag our burdened life like a horse drawing his heavy cart. In the night, we lie in a death-like swoon, and in the day, though we think ourselves wide-awake, we are in a peculiar species of delirium. We are miserable, as we know our limits We are poor tools of some one else's thought. We are, with all our free will, but helpless mediums hypnotised by our circumstances. We have fixed unnatural boundaries to our heart and mind. We have isolated ourselves from the whole living nature. When we are lying asleep during the night, who knows that the destiny-weaving stars may be at work. Some rays creeping silently and mysteriously over our heads.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
