14294	Kayasth caste as he was born, or new brahman?
14294	NEW RELIGIOUS IDEAS-- ARE THERE ANY?
14294	One question is,"Can we know that eternal Being( the"One only without a second,"or"The All,"_ i.e._ pantheistic Deity)?
14294	Our question merely is: How has the new regime affected native ideas?
14294	Pantheism, or the doctrine that God is all and all is God-- what does it imply?

14294	What does caste forbid and punish?
14294	What element of truth is there in the idea, we may well ask?
14294	What has been the nature and extent of the impact of Christian and modern thought upon India, and particularly upon Hinduism?

14294	Why does the thought of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ fail to reach his heart?
14294	Why is it that Hindu doctrine has never set?

14294	Why this incongruity between doctrine and domestic practice?
14294	Why this un- British weighting of those who are behind in the race?
14294	Why, one can not help asking, this invertebrate character of the new Indian religious associations in Western India?
14294	Why, when an Assam Shaha takes up his residence again in his motherland, Bengal, should this Blue- book be casting up to him his humble origin?
14294	Would not the Indian jungle, which they are trying to reduce to a well- ordered garden of indigenous fruits, speedily lapse to jungle again?

14867	Now, that which is created,he adds,"must of necessity be created by some cause-- but how can we find out the Father and maker of all this universe?

14867	Again, the question arises, How can responsibility be transferred from one to another?
14867	And how are we to account for their striking similarities?
14867	Are not we sons of the mighty Duryodani?
14867	But are they?
14867	But does conversion mean the same, or anything like the same, thing in each?
14867	But how shall the false systems of religions be studied?
14867	But the question may be asked,"Do we not admit a similar principle when we speak of a man''s influence as something that survives him?"
14867	But what is the evidence found in the legends themselves?
14867	But what is the testimony of the great dead religions of the past with respect to a primitive monotheism?
14867	But who knows whence his blessings come to him?
14867	But_ how_ have these conquests in Central Africa been made?
14867	Do the traces of a comparatively pure monotheism first show themselves in the recent periods of idolatry?
14867	Do they appear to have risen from polytheism toward simpler and more spiritual forms, or have simple forms been ramified into polytheism?

14867	Have we forgotten our Rama and Arjun, Yudistar or Bishma or Drona the Wise?
14867	How can he be a lover of truth, which is God, if he knows not his beloved under such a disguise?

14867	How could Buddhism grow out of such a soil and finally cast its spell over so many peoples?
14867	How did the early Church succeed in its great conquest?
14867	How is it with the authenticity of Buddhist literature?
14867	How is the young missionary, who knows nothing of their systems or the real points of comparison, to deal with such men?
14867	How much may we expect to prove from the early history of the non- Christian systems?

14867	If Krishna is_ not_ within and without, what is the use of austerities?
14867	If Krishna is_ not_ worshipped, what is the use of austerities?
14867	In the old churches of the East or on the Continent of Europe, how much of virtual idolatry is there even now?
14867	In the receptacle of what was it contained?
14867	Is it any wonder that such persons have a warm side toward Buddhism?
14867	Is it_ in pari materia_, and if not, is the comparison worth the paper on which it is written?

14867	O Almighty One, hast Thou not power to make us other than we are, that we too may have some part in the blessings of life?"
14867	Of what value can heathen asceticism and merit- making be while the heart is still barred and buttressed with self- righteousness?
14867	Or Lactantius, or Victorinus, Optatus, Hilary, not to speak of the living, and Greeks innumerable?
14867	See we not how richly laden with gold and silver and apparel that most persuasive teacher and most blessed martyr, Cyprian, departed out of Egypt?
14867	Stop, O Brahman; why do you engage in austerities?
14867	The Bhagavad Gita and the Gospel both enjoin the brotherhood of men, but what are the meanings which they give to this term?

14867	The question"Are ye not of more value than many sparrows?"
14867	The question, What is Nirvana?
14867	The real question is, what was the_ drift_ of the prophet''s character?
14867	Then follow other questions:''Does Buddhism really count more believers than any other religion?''
14867	There is recognized no future intervention that can effect a change in the downward drift, and why should a thousand existences prove better than one?
14867	Was it enveloped in the gulph profound of water?
14867	What are the lessons of the various ethnic traditions?

14867	What was the influence of his professed principles on his own life?
14867	What were the elements of power which enabled the great sage of China to rear a social and political fabric which has survived for so many centuries?
14867	What, then, is Kharma?
14867	Where can we point to so easy a conquest as that of Patrick in Ireland, or that of the Monks of Iona among the Picts and Scots?
14867	Where did Shankar and great Dayananda arise?
14867	Where do violence, meanness, and deception gradually beam forth into benevolence and truth?
14867	Where is the system in which such an incident and such a lesson would not be wholly out of place?
14867	Wherein, then, consists the unique supremacy of the Christian faith?
14867	Who shall change the leopard''s spots or deflect the fatal drift of a human soul?
14867	Who would think of quoting"Paradise Lost"in any sober comparison of Biblical truth with the teachings of other religions?
14867	Will there not be found perplexing parallels which will shake our trust in the positive and exclusive supremacy of the Christian faith?
14867	Without a Daysman how shall we bridge the abyss that lies between?
14867	Yet where in all the wide waste of heathen faiths or philosophies is there anything which even remotely resembles the story of the Prodigal?
14867	or has perchance some other God made us?

1561	''AND WHERE SHALL I CARRY MY MONEY?'' 1561 But what of the second group above- mentioned, the"things SHOWN"?
1561	Where is the founder of the Religion?
1561	( 2) And what is this new form in which consciousness has to rearise?
1561	( 2) Why indeed?
1561	-------- How then are we to reach this treasure and make it our own?
1561	--or to put it in another form:"Is it necessary to suppose a human and visible Founder at all?"
1561	Am_ I_ doing the right thing?
1561	Am_ I_ winning the favor of God and man?
1561	Among what stars was the Sun moving at that critical moment?
1561	And he wrote-- in the Tao- Teh- King--"Who is there who can make muddy water clear?"
1561	And to how many of us, in our dealings with the world, does life take on just such a form-- of a queer and ugly cloud?
1561	And what about the kind of creed or creeds which that religion would favor?
1561	And what of the transformation of the king into a god-- or of the Magician or Priest directly into the same?
1561	And yet( one can not help asking the question): Has any one of us really ever SEEN a Tree?
1561	Are they good for me, are they evil for me?
1561	But what does it mean--"whose soul is purified"?
1561	But what was that lamb?
1561	By which they may be guided, by which they may hope, by which look forward?
1561	Can any description of Rest be more perfect than that?
1561	Can we doubt, in the light of all that we have already said, what the answer to these questions is?
1561	Could anything be more crushing?
1561	Did_ I_ make a good bargain in allowing Jesus to be crucified for me?"

1561	How are we to attain to this Stilling of the Mind, which is the secret of all power and possession?
1561	How can one describe such a state of affairs?
1561	How can we reconcile St. Augustine with his own devilish creed, or the religious belief of the Aztecs with their unspeakable cruelties?
1561	How can you reconcile the existence side by side of divinities belonging to such different periods, or ascribe them both to an astronomical origin?"
1561	How was this location defined?
1561	How without Almanacs or Calendars could the day, or probable day, of the Sun''s rebirth be fixed?
1561	If that is true-- it will be asked-- how was it that that divorce DID take place-- that the taboo did arise?
1561	If we can get into right touch with the immense, the incalculable powers of Nature, is there anything which we may not be able to do?
1561	If you pour a phial of muddy water into that reservoir which we described-- what will you see?
1561	Is it not obvious that the real Self MUST be something of this nature, a being perceiving all, but itself remaining unperceived?
1561	Is it not possible, we may ask, that in the very midst of the cyclone of daily life we may find a similar resting- place?
1561	Is that not magnificent?
1561	It was always:"Am_ I_ saved?
1561	Let us then grant this preliminary assumption-- and it clearly is not a large or hazardous one-- and what follows?
1561	Must we say then that the whole nation is really a part of the man''s body?
1561	Schemes of reconstruction are well enough in their way, but if there is no ground of REAL HUMAN SOLIDARITY beneath, of what avail are they?
1561	The history of Religion( they will say) is a history of delusion and illusion; why waste time over it?
1561	The question arose:"How do these sensations and experiences affect ME?
1561	The question inevitably arises, How can this power be obtained?
1561	Then when it is melted he says,"Where is the crystal?"
1561	We can hardly, in this last case, disbelieve altogether in the genuineness of the plea, so why should we do so in the former case?
1561	What can_ I_ do to modify them, to encourage the pleasurable, to avoid or inhibit the painful, and so on?"
1561	What did Shakespeare say?
1561	What has been the instigating cause of it?
1561	What have been the main characteristics of the Christian branch, as differentiating it from the other branches?
1561	What is that new and necessary element of regeneration?
1561	What is the ESSENCE of the tree?
1561	What is the explanation of this fact?
1561	What is the matter?
1561	What more natural than to suppose that the pain really is transferred from the one person to the other?

1561	What sort of god, we may ask, did Augustine worship?
1561	What was happening?

1561	What will happen?
1561	When, to a man who understands, the Self has become all things, what sorrow, what trouble, can there be to him-- having once beheld that Unity?"
1561	Where then was the Sun at that moment?

1561	Who was this"thrice Savior"whom the Greek Gnostics acclaimed?
1561	Why did Samson( name derived from Shemesh, the sun) lose all his strength when he lost his hair?
1561	Why did the Druids at Yule Tide light roaring fires?
1561	Why should our minds dwell on them any longer or harbor a doubt as to our perfect comprehension of them?
1561	Why should the head brag of its ascendancy and domination, and the heart be smothered up and hidden?
1561	Why was Apollo born with only one hair( the young Sun with only one feeble ray)?
1561	Why was all this?
1561	Why was the cock supposed to crow all Christmas Eve("The bird of dawning singeth all night long")?
1561	Why waste time over them?"
1561	Why were so many of these gods-- Mithra, Apollo, Krishna, Jesus, and others, born in caves or underground chambers?
1561	Why( again we ask) did Christianity make this apparently great mistake?
1561	Will my claims to salvation be allowed?
1561	Would the god grow weaker and weaker, and finally succumb, or would he conquer after all?

39092	Are not all things ruled according to the will of God? 39092 But are leaves and our bodies so bound up and united with the whole, and are not our souls much more?
39092	But whence am I to get a fine cloak? 39092 But you do not believe,"he said,"that souls are allotted to one body after another, and that what we call death is transmigration?
39092	But,asks Tatian( c. 16),"why should they get_ drastikôteras dynameôs_ after death?"

39092	Who among men had any knowledge of what God was, before he came? 39092 Who shall change one of their dogmata[ the regular word of Epictetus]?
39092	Why am I wasted for desire of him, who is either happy or non- existent? 39092 Why should it be lawful( for a Christian),"he asked,"to see what it is sin to do?
39092	Why was he not sent to the sinless as well as to sinners? 39092 With what right(_ iure_) Marcion, do you cut down my wood?
39092	[ 108] This isa peace not of Cæsar''s proclamation( for whence could he proclaim it?)

39092	[ 136] Does Homer''s poetry do honour to the gods( c. 14)--do the actors on the stage( c. 15)? 39092 [ 147] Marcion, for instance, is"sick( like so many nowadays and, most of all, the heretics) with the question of evil, whence is evil?
39092	[ 151]Why do you,"he asks,"act the part of a Jew, when you are a Greek?
39092	[ 153] But have the churches been faithful in the transmission of this body of doctrine? 39092 [ 157] And then he rejoins, Do you think nativity impossible-- or unsuitable-- for God?
39092	[ 32] Besides would God need to descend in order to{ 248} learn what was going on among men? 39092 [ 34] Then why not long before?

39092	[ 80] Again, the body is the prison of the soul; should there not then be warders of it-- dæmons in fact? 39092 [ 84]"Where then are we to track out God, Plato?
39092	[ 90] How are we to meet at all, asks the anxious Christian, unless we buy off the soldiers? 39092 [ 90] Is it not likely that these"satraps and ministers of air and earth"could do you harm, if you did them despite?

39092	Again, when Sodom is destroyed why does the holy text say"The Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrha sulphur and fire from the Lord from heaven"?
39092	And are not some things also wafted heavenward by the conscience?
39092	And how could all this be, if his body were not true?

39092	And meanwhile, what was the audience doing, while he stood there tied,{ 326} waiting interminably for the lion?
39092	And the gladiatorial shows?
39092	And then the dog- faced Egyptian in linen-- who is he to bark at the gods?
39092	And then who are those who practise abortion?
39092	And where are truth and experience?
39092	And who among{ 223} men could set this forth in words?
39092	And who is he?
39092	And who told thee that the gods do not help us even to what is in our own power?
39092	And without a change of dogmata, what is there but the slavery of men groaning and pretending to obey?
39092	Animæ_, 2,_ unde igitur naturalis timor animæ in deum, si deus nan novit irasci?
39092	Are not the pagans guilty of Atheism, at once in not worshipping the true God and in persecuting those who do?
39092	Are we not content with the unanimous authority of mankind?
39092	Are we to bid a man to lend a hand to the shipwrecked, point the way to the wanderer, share bread with the hungry?
39092	Are words and acts holy as religious symbols which in a society are obviously vicious?
39092	Are you surprised a man should go to the gods?
39092	As to the Christian story, what could have attracted the attention of God to her?
39092	As to the idea that Christians eat children to gain eternal life-- who would think it worth the price?
39092	At what cost were they written?
39092	Below, is it not the same for them as for you?
39092	Both handle the same questions:"Whence is evil, and why?
39092	But does not this vapour theory do away with the other theory that divination is mediated to us by the gods through the dæmons?
39092	But if a disembodied soul can foresee the future, why should not a soul in a body also be able?
39092	But might not one study pagan literature?
39092	But what of the man of genius who wrote them?
39092	But whither?
39092	By what licence, Valentinus, do you divert my springs?
39092	Can I have done anything like a free man, or a noble- minded?
39092	Children ask father and mother for bread-- will they receive a stone?
39092	Could anything be more beautiful than this habit of examining the whole day?
39092	Could the church do with them?
39092	Did Abraham keep the Sabbath, or any of the patriarchs down to Moses?
39092	Did Jove forget Crete for Rome''s sake-- Crete, where he was born, where he lies buried?
39092	Do you recognize them, Trypho?
39092	Do you see, then, the abyss of atheism that lies at our feet, if we resolve each of the gods into a passion or a force or a virtue?
39092	Does Superstition ne''er your heart assail Nor bid your soul with fancied horrors quail?
39092	Does a varied diet or a single dish help the digestion more?
39092	Elsewhere he gives us a parody of self- examination-- the reflections of one who would prosper in the world--"Where have I failed in flattery?
39092	Fool, have you not hands, did not God make them for you?
39092	For to what better and more careful watch(_ phylaki_) could He have entrusted each of us?
39092	For what soul of a man would any longer wish for a body that{ 253} had rotted?
39092	For who is not stirred up by the contemplation of it to find out what there is in the thing within?
39092	Good-- but prithee say, Is every vice with avarice flown away?
39092	Had the Christian any law?
39092	Has some comparative fallen out, or does_ his_ conceal another name?
39092	He can not bear a dirty man,--"who does not get out of his way?"
39092	He who fears"the gods of his fathers and his race, saviours, friends and givers of good"--whom will he not fear?
39092	Hermogenes denies God''s title in this case; which then of the other means does he prefer?
39092	His admirers to- day speak of him as one whose question was always"Is it true?"
39092	How can I blaspheme my King who saved me?
39092	How could men have spat in a face radiant with"celestial grandeur"?
39092	How could the Telearch of Chæronea under the Roman Empire understand Pericles?
39092	How did God come to use matter?
39092	How long would it seem?
39092	How long would it take to bring and to let loose the lion?
39092	I do not deny it; who is not?
39092	If Typhons and Giants were to drive out the gods and become our rulers, what worse could they ask?
39092	If one looked from heaven, would there be any marked difference between the procedures of men and of ants?
39092	If the one, why not hunt them down?
39092	If the other, why punish?
39092	If they have not, why pray?
39092	In his name why?
39092	In the last resort is ecstasy, independently of morality, the main thing?
39092	Is it a little thing with you to strive with men?
39092	Is it unworthy of God?
39092	Is it_ ihs_, in fact,--a reference to Jesus analogous to the suggestion of Celsus that he too was a magician?
39092	Is not all the philosophers''talk about God?
39092	Is there not a hint of the school about this?
39092	Is there not for them the same descent, wherever it lead?
39092	It is the setting in which God has placed"the shadow of his own soul, the breath of his own spirit"--can it really be so vile?
39092	It was believed by Christians that in baptism the sins of the earlier life were washed away; but what of sins after baptism?
39092	Larentina?
39092	Let us assume for purposes of discussion that there could be a"descent of God"--would it be what the Christians say it was?
39092	Man, what then?
39092	Mankind are apt to look twice at the piety of a ruler, and the old question of Satan comes easily,"Doth Job serve God for naught?"
39092	Nero should ask himself"Am I the elected of the gods to be their vice- gerent on earth?
39092	No,"where is the likeness between the philosopher and the Christian?
39092	None the less the centre of interest was the same for them as for us-- what_ is_ the significance of Jesus of Nazareth?
39092	Now whom do you mean by the sinner but the wicked, thief, house- breaker, poisoner, temple- robber, grave- robber?
39092	Ought we not, in digging or ploughing or eating, to sing this hymn to God?
39092	Plants and trees and grass and thorns-- do they grow for man a whit more than for the wildest animals?
39092	Quis enim bib contemplatione eius concutitur ad requirendum quid intus in re sit?
39092	Quorsum ista retulimus?
39092	Shall I swear''by Jove the stone''(_ per Iovem lapidem_) after the most ancient manner of Rome?
39092	Should they throw the dice to find out to whom to turn?
39092	Silk and purple and pearls are next dealt with-- and earrings,"an outrage on nature"--if you pierce the ear, why not the nose too?
39092	Sterculus?
39092	Tertullian had to face a similar criticism of Christian life-- was Abraham_ baptized_?
39092	That curious story, too, of the boy falling down in his presence?
39092	The Christian must not philosophize, they said-- Tertullian said it too; but how could they know they must not philosophize unless they philosophized?
39092	The Jew is referred back to the righteous men of early days-- Was Adam circumcised, or did he keep the Sabbath?
39092	The arbiter of life and death to the nations?"
39092	The gods were part of the past of the ancient world, and if Reason took them away, what was left?
39092	The other sort perplexed him--"Why can you not judge for yourselves?"
39092	The worn- out frame dragged the spirit with it, and he died with the cry--"My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
39092	Then is it not better to use what is in thine own power and be free, than to be set on what is not in thy power-- a slave and contemptible?
39092	Then shall I no longer be?
39092	Then those mysterious"somethings"which Apuleius keeps{ 230} wrapped up in a napkin?
39092	They demanded to know how they stood with the gods-- were the gods many or one?
39092	This is what men were doing and saying around him-- but why?
39092	This work has many names; it is called gift[ or grace,_ chárisma_], enlightenment, perfection, baptism.... What is wanting for him who knows God?
39092	To lie against God as if He forbade us to do good on the Sabbath day, is not that impiety?
39092	Was it by accident that Joseph the carpenter gave all his five sons names that stood for something in Hebrew history?
39092	Was it not in my power to lie?
39092	Was it true-- this story of the ass?
39092	Was she pretty?
39092	Was the hen or the egg first?
39092	What cause is there that the gods should do good?
39092	What done or left undone?
39092	What father was ever so unnatural(_ anósios_)?
39092	What gods?
39092	What harm is there in not having sinned?
39092	What have I to do with circumcision, who have the testimony of God?
39092	What if laws do forbid Christians to be?
39092	What in all this could tempt a man to face the lions?
39092	What is its destiny?

39092	Who wished this end for his soldier-- who but he who sealed him with such an oath of enlistment?
39092	Who would choose such a change?
39092	Whole burnt offerings and your sacrifices and the fat of goats and the blood of bulls I will not... Who has sought these from your hands?
39092	Whom else would a brigand invite to join him?
39092	Why could they not philosophize and say nothing?
39092	Why did I say that?
39092	Why does an Emperor wish to be called"the eldest son of the church?"
39092	Why he rather than any of the"ten thousand others"who might much more plausibly be called the Messiah?
39092	Why is fresh water better than salt for{ 85} washing clothes?
39092	Why should not we too live after the model of Socrates, studying philosophy and obeying our dæmon?
39092	Why should the innocent age hasten to the remission of sins?
39092	Why should the things, which''coming out of the mouth defile a man,''seem not to defile a man when he takes them in through eyes and ears?
39092	Why should there be?
39092	Why, but from vanity and folly?
39092	Why?
39092	Why?
39092	Will you not willingly surrender it for the whole?
39092	With ribbons is it adorned-- or with graves?
39092	Would not the play have been better named_ Brutus_?
39092	Would not the son of Moses have been strangled, had not his mother circumcised him?
39092	Would you call him Nature?
39092	Would you call him Providence?
39092	Would you call him Universe?
39092	Would you call him fate?
39092	Would you propitiate the gods?
39092	You do n''t believe that in beasts and fishes dwells the mind(_ animum_) that was once a man''s?
39092	Zeno and Isis each had something to say, but who had such a message of forgiveness and reconciliation and of the love of God?
