Recognizing Perspective
Which Aryan theory does this historian believe?
India was the motherland of our race, and Sanskrit
the mother of Europes languages: she was the
mother of our philosophy; mother, through the
Arabs, of much of our mathematics; mother,
through the Buddha, of the ideals embodied in
Christianity; mother, through the village community,
of self-government and democracy. Mother India is
in many ways the mother of us all.Will Durant,
American Historian
