Avery  \nINDIA SOCIETY,INc.NEw YoRK CITY-·--  \n## THE WESTERN DISCOVERYOF THE ORIENT ----\n\nBy Dr.Louise M.Kueffner Avery  \nOUR Western discovery of the Orient,of India,is afascinating and important chapter in the history ofthe expansion of human consciousness.  \nIn the past we have heard again and again thatthe East has been asleep;but that it is now awakening,thanks to our Western spirit!Latterly,however,wehave begun to wonder.It seems a question whetherthe East has not always been awake more than theWest to spiritual realities.And it is a question whetherthe Western aggressiveness and patriotic pride whichare so closely connected with commercial exploitationdo not in reality spell spiritual deadness.  \nGradually the West has come to realize that theconceptions“yellow peril”“white man's burden”areobsolete.We have become eager not only to give tothe East what it lacks,but to take from the East whatwe lack,in order that together we may push forwardinto physical and spiritual realms not yet realizedTheEast shall not conquer and Orientalize the West;norshall the West conquer and Occidentalize the East.Both East and West shall give what each has of prac-tical grasp of the finite,and of spiritual grasp of theinfinite.For both East and West are beginning to  \nunderstand that they must come together,on equalterms,in one common feeling of universal humanbrotherhood,in one common effort to organize a World-Society in which all men shall be freed from the franticfight for food,in order that then they can become free,at last,for true self-development.  \nThe danger of the new Orient,the new India,today,is however two-fold.  \nOne danger is that the Easterner will give up hisinherited temperament,tradition,and outlook upon life,and become Anglo-Saxonized.This applies not merelyto his political,industrial,and social organization,butalso to his painting,music,drama,and poetry.  \nThe other danger is that while he develops thepride of political nationalism,he will become permeatedwith our Western narrowing conception of patriotism,and will adopt toward the West the superior attitudethat the West is beginning to loseHe will emphasizetoo much that the West is merely practical,the Eastspiritual;at the very moment,indeed,when he isallowing himself to aim at beating the Westerner athis own competitive game.  \nIt seems important,nevertheless,that when Eastand West approach one another,they must rise to some-thing higher than the conception of mere international-ism with its competitive national prides;they mustrise to the conception of beyond—nationalism.Foreven though each folk must always keep its individualfolk-characteristics,and although each individual is  \ndetermined by his folkhood heredity and environment,yet Humanity's ultimate realization of itself,and ofthe cosmos,can be attained only by an ever-increasingliberation of the values that are universally-human.  \nThis great conception of the “universally-human”.to be revealed to each folk through a knowledge of\"world-literature\",was first proclaimed at the revolu-tionary turning point of the eighteenth and nineteenthcenturies by the great Goethe,whom Tagore has called\"the master-poet of Europe\".Goethe proclaimed thisgos","cbCairgxMZq1x3AR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairgxMZq1x3AR","pdf",335569,"English","# Restrictions on Use\n#
