Arya: A Philosophical Review - Program and Organization

Program and Organization

The Arya was advertised as "a review of pure philosophy" with a twofold object:

  1. A systematic study of the highest problems of existence.
  2. The formation of a synthesis of knowledge, harmonizing the diverse religious traditions of humanity, occidental as well as oriental.

The method of the review was described as one of "realism, at once rational and transcendental; a realism consisting in the unification of intellectual and scientific discipline with those of intuitive experimentation."

The material appearing in the Arya was organized under four main headings:

  1. Synthetic studies in speculative philosophy.
  2. Translations and commentaries of ancient texts.
  3. Studies in comparative Religion.
  4. Practical methods of inner culture and self development.

Famous quotes containing the words program and/or organization:

    Wags try to invent new stories to tell about the legislature, and end by telling the old one about the senator who explained his unaccustomed possession of a large roll of bills by saying that someone pushed it over the transom while he slept. The expression “It came over the transom,” to explain any unusual good fortune, is part of local folklore.

    Democracy is the wholesome and pure air without which a socialist public organization cannot live a full-blooded life.
