"At the root of all that we Hindus have done, thought and said through these many thousand of years, behind all we are and seek to be, there lies concealed, the fount of our philosophies, the bedrock of our religions, the kernel of our thoughts, the explanation of our ethics and society, the summary of our civilisation, the rivet of our nationality, a small body of speech, Veda. From this one seed developing into many forms the multitudinous and magnificient birth called hinduism drwas its inexhaustible existence. Buddhism too with its inexhaustible existence. Buddhism too with its offshoot, Christianity, flows from the same original source. It has left its stamps on Persia, through Persia on Judaism, through Judaism, Christianity and Sufism on Islam, and through Buddha on Confucianism, and through Christ and mediaeval mysticism, Greek and German Philosophy and Sanskrit learning on the thoughts and civilisation of Europe. There is no part of the world's sprituality, of the world's religion, of the world's thought which would be what it is today, if the Veda has not existed. Of no other body of speech in the world can this be said."
