Not England
"For myself, Dilip, though I can be tolerant to all countries, 1 have only one, and that, strange to say, is not England but India. What I feel is that the wealth of tradition which is a nation is too precious a thing to be merged into
a
common hotch-potch from London to Yoko. hama. If we confine ourselves to Europe (at least western Europe) the case is somewhat different as the traditions are more or less common; but can England and India, say, be mixed so philanthrophically without doing vital injury to both? When the tradition of a nation dies, then the nation is dead, and even if it persists as a great power in the world, yet it is nothing but an aggregate of meaningless individuals determinedly pursuing their contemptible aims. History dyes a symbol, and what that symbol signifies is something infinitely more precious than a mere peddling adherence to so-called facts. There is only one root fact anywhere, and that is the Eternal One. Whatever helps to reveal Him is a fact, and whatever helps to hide Him is a lie, even if all the fools in the world affirm it."
