Confronted with the huge rush of modern life and thought, invaded by another dominant civilisation almost her opposite or inspired at least with a very different spirit to her own, India can only survive by confronting this raw, new, aggressive, powerful world with fresh diviner creations of her own spirit, cast in the mould of her own spiritual ideals.
She must meet it by solving its greater problems,— which she cannot avoid, even if such avoidance could be thought desirable,— in her own way, through solutions arising out of her own being and from her own deepest and largest knowledge.
