| Summary: | This article, from the pen of one who has lived for many years in India, indicates the salient aspects of the appeal which the figure of Jesus is now making to the Indian mind. Jesus is now differentiated sharply from occidental Christianity. In Jesus, the Indian sees the supremely religious soul, entirely emancipated from social or ethical limitations, standing for the spirit of brotherhood, able to suffer to the uttermost. He is the "selfless" one who is the supreme master of religious living. |
