Summary: "Sacred India" would be as apt a title for this book.For it is a quest for that India which is only secret because it is so scared.The holiest things in life are not bruited abroad in public.The sure instict of the human soul is to keep them withdrawn in the inmost recesses accessible to few perhaps to none.Certainly only to those who care for spiritual things.And with a country as with an individual.The most sacred things a country keeps secret.It would not be easy for a stranger to discover what england holds most sacred.And it is the same with India.The most sacred part of India is the most secret.Now secret things require much searching for:but those who seek will find.Those who seek will find.Those who seek with their whole heart and with the real determination to find will at last discover the secret.Mr.brunton had that determination and he did in the end find.
