Arianism, of which we have become particularly proud since independence, is, we examine matters without priories, integumentary. The essence lies elsewhere.
The Indian spirit is basically pre_Aryan. The Dravidian element in it is predominant (as we see today,) but the total influences go further back. We have heard the phrase “Mother India”; India is much more than; she is the Granny of Nations. Her soul (there’s, I repeat, no “it” about it) is steeped in the leadings and misleading of many civilizations.
Whatever races came to India- they were attracted to her like moths to a flame- had one peculiarity: they refused to be integrated. Despite the terrific pressure of the anonymous multitudes around them, they remained undigested chunks.
Hence the Indian paradox: one Indian reacts like Scythian, another like a Sumerian, a third like a Greek, a fourth like an Arab, and so the complicated tale continues.
