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.

Famous quotes containing the words program and/or organization:
““Why visit the playhouse to see the famous Parisian models, ... when one can see the French damsels, Norma and Diana? Their names have been known on both continents, because everything goes as it will, and those that cannot be satisfied with these must surely be of a queer nature.””
—For the City of New Orleans, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“... every woman’s organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every one’s hand the power to look after themselves.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
