In my opinion, it is only when Hindu society becomes a casteless society that it can hope to have strength enough to defend itself. Without suchinternal strength, swaraj for Hindus may turn out to be only a step towards slavery.

I think that if anything can be proved by natural theology, it is that slavery is morally wrong.

Once a missionary religion, Hinduism perforce ceased to be a missionary religion after the time when the Hindu society developed its system of castes. For, caste is incompatible with conversion.

The Hindu civilisation is a diabolical contrivance to enslave humanity. Its proper name would be infamy.

If the negro is a man, why then my ancient faith teaches me that ``all men are created equal;'' and that there can be no moral right in connection with one man's making a slave of another.

There is no place for an individual in Hindu society. The Hindu religion is constituted on the class concept. The Hindu religion does not teach as to how an individual should behave with another individual.
