Program and Organization
The Arya was advertised as "a review of pure philosophy" with a twofold object:
- A systematic study of the highest problems of existence.
- 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:
- Synthetic studies in speculative philosophy.
- Translations and commentaries of ancient texts.
- Studies in comparative Religion.
- Practical methods of inner culture and self development.

“It is said that a carpenter building a summer hotel here ... declared that one very clear day he picked out a ship coming into Portland Harbor and could distinctly see that its cargo was West Indian rum. A county historian avers that it was probably an optical delusion, the result of looking so often through a glass in common use in those days.”

“Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.”
