San?tana Dharma
An Advanced Text Book of Hindu Religion and Ethics (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Santana Dharma: An Advanced Text Book of Hindu Religion and Ethics<br><br>The Board of Trustees of the Central Hindu College has laid down the following principles on which religious and moral teaching is to be given in all Institutions under its control.<br><br>The object of the Central Hindu College being to combine Hindu religious and ethical training with the western education suited to the needs of the time, it is necessary that this religious and ethical training shall be of a wide, liberal and unsectarian character, while at the same time it shall be definitely and distinctively Hindu. It must be inclusive enough to unite the most divergent forms of Hindu thought, but exclusive enough to leave outside it forms of thought which are non-Hindu. It must avoid all doctrines which are the subject of controversy between schools recognised as orthodox; it must not enter into any of the social and political questions of the day; but it must lay a solid foundation of religion and ethics on which the student may build, in his manhood, the more specialised principles suited to his intellectual and emotional temperament.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
