“I hold that it is the duty of every cultured man or woman
to read sympathetically the scriptures of the world. If we are to respect
others' religions as we would have them respect our own, a friendly study of
the world's religion is a sacred duty.. I regard my study and reverence for
Bible, the Koran and the other scriptures to be wholly consistent with my claim
to be a staunch sanatani Hindu.. My respectful study of other religions has not
abated my reverence for and my faith in the Hindu scriptures. They have
broadened my view of life. They have enabled me to understand more clearly many
an obscure passage in the Hindu scriptures.”
