knowledge, and which will always occupy a distinguished
place in history of civilization of mankind
Count Bjornstjerna (Swedish Theosophists, 1800)

In its (Rigveda) noble simplicity, in the loftiness of its
philosophic vision, it is probably the most admirable
piece of philosophy of olden times.

mind has conceived.
Alfred North Whitehead
