The Maha-Bodhi the United Buddhist World: Vol. XXX

Dr. Rabindranath Tagore writes from Santiniketan as follows : —”I am sure it will be admitted by all Hindus who are true to their own ideals, that it is an intolerable wrong to allow the temple raised on the spot where Lord Buddha attained his enlightenment, to remain under the control of a rival sect which can neither have an intimate knowledge of nor sympathy for the Buddhist religion and its rites of worship. I consider it to be a sacred duty for alì individuals believing in freedom and justice to help to restore .this great historical site to the community of people who still reverently carry on that particular current of history in their own living faith.”
