Présentation de l'éditeur
A wakening ofF aith of the best spirits to make sacrifices to save others the very subjects which in these modern days still occupy the attention of the most thoughtful men of the world. The book is Brahministic and Buddhistic, Indian and Western in some aspects of philosophic thought. It is profoundly philosophic, reminding one strongly of Hegel, Berkeley and G. Gore in the earlier part, and is as hard to understand as Bishop Butler sfamous Analogy ;yet very practical in the latter part, therefore it has great importance arising from its high and extensive range of view. If it be, as it is more and more believed that theM ahay ana Faith is not Buddhism, properly so-called, but an Asiatic form of the same Gospel of our Lord andS aviour Jesus Christ, in Buddhistic nomenclature, differing from the old Buddhism just as the newT estament differs from the old, then it commands a world-wide interest, for in it we find an adaptation of Christianity to ancient thought in A sia, and the deepest bond of union between the different races of theE ast and theW est, viz., the bond of a common religion. Both Christianity and theN ew Buddhism hold to the transcendent and the immanent forms of God; but theE ast emphasises more of the immanent form while theW est emphasises more of the transcendent. The almost universal reception of the doctrines contained in this book by both theE ast and theW est constitutes to my mind its highest claim to our attention ;for thereby we are brought face to face with a solution of the stupendous practical problem of uniting all races in one bond of religious charity !II. The Evolution and Devolution of Buddhism. The evolution of Buddhism is seen in the new Budd hism superseding the old, and the devolution in the attempt by later writers to combine the primitive with the advanced, an absurd anachronism and impossibility.
