masses by meins of myths and legends has been given a sufficient trial all these past 2,000 years or so. But do we not see that it has only gone to make men irreligious and cruel at heart ? It is high time now that truth should be imparted to them in its pure, undisguised form. The fault with us is that we are always ready to set up ourselves as prophets and teachers without ever having been students ourselves. When we apprcach religion as humble seekers after Truth, and not in the spirit of bivotry or conceit, it will be seen that Jainism stands unrivalled among the systems which claim to impart the Truth.
Live and let live must be the motto of a truly civilized man.
