The study of Sanskrit has led to the comparative study of languages. It has been found that Sanskrit Persian Greek and Latin and also the Celtic Germanic and Slavonic languages come from a primitive unwritten common Aryan language. From Ireland to India and all over Europe and America Aryan languages are spoken. And the rendering into words the enlightened soul lifting thoughts of the enlightened cult suggest a common human pursuit since the very primeval or even pre human days through in destructible powerful genetic memory cells engrained in the cosmic unconscious. The conceptions display an astonishing philosophical subtlety. The subject is undoubtedly very intricate and my knowledge equally limited. Under such circumstances it shall be sheer folly on the part of an ordinary commoner like me to attempt a dissertation on the topic. Let us acquire spiritual knowledge together let us enjoy the fruits of that knowledge together let us show our spiritual prowess in perfect unison and harmony with the cosmos (each other) and Banish all hatred and jealousy from our hearts forever and partake of its Eternal Bliss. 256 pp.
