Most of the English knowing public of India and
more so of the world at large, are ignorant of the
greatness and contribution of Maharishi Dayanand
Saraswati and Arya Samaj in bringing about the
national awakening in India in multifarious fields.
Majority of the so-called (English) educated people
in India are indifferent and disinterested and show
no concern to know about the great scholars of
Sanskrit and Hindi and other Indian languages as
well as religious leaders who are regarded orthodox,
backward or devoid of logic (as, for instance, was
the notion of Young Munshi Ram before becoming
Swami Shradhanand). English media shows
indifference to such an extent that they consider it
below standard to highlight their scholarship and
greatness.

properly if we content ourselves in publishing and
distributing literature in Hindi alone, as we have been
doing so far. We have to expand our publications
not only in other Indian languages but also in English
and other foreign languages. Otherwise how can we
pursue the slogan of Dayanand of making the world
'Arya'. (t-u4q1
