First sentence: INDIA - The land of the Ganges- the home of Sanscrit, the Root-Language of the World - the Mother of Religions and Philosophies - the Twentieth Century and the Western World greet thee! from thy sources have come the languages of the world, in which men have expressed the thoughts arising in their minds - thy world-symbols have made possible advanced thinking and expression of thought. From thy thinkers and teachers have come the root-ideas which have since grown into many a religious and philosophical tree, with bud, leaf, flower, and fruit. To thee may be traced the great philosophical conceptions and religious truths that have animated and inspired man's thought for centuries, Thy hundred centuries of deep thought and meditation upon the Mysteries of Existence - the Secret of the Absolute - have proved as the leaven which has lightened the bread of life, and has raised die sodden mass of materiality and changed its character so that it may be partaken of without harm by reason of the transforming power of thy leaven!
