In these writings it has been necessary to stress certain points and to pass lightly over others; to develop certain features, because the writing is primarily for a particular type of Western reader. The attempt was made to interest in Indian wisdom the general reader of literature who is thoughtful and a seeker after knowledge. It was also written in an attempt to clarify Indian wisdom for the few who are already interested in it, but who have not the time, patience, or opportunity to go more deeply into it.
