About the Book:-There is no Ideal of Marriage like the Indian Ideal. This then is the line of thought that I would suggest to you with regard to the womanhood of India : that you should study and realise the old Ideal, and that you should then see how it may be re-introduced; that you should educated women everywhere and choose wisely the kind of education that you give that you should keep in mind the capacities that they have that you should evolve those to the utmost of your ability; so that in the future as in the past there may be great, heroic, strong, pure and devoted women in India for sooner or later weakness means degradation; sooner or later the lack of strength leads to lack of love of fidelity. In pre-theosophical days after a contact of about half-a-century with Europeans gentlemen in northern India men like Raja Ram Mohun Roy Keshed Chander Sen and Dayanand Sarasvati unable to find their way to true reform through the bewildering intricacies of Sastraic speculations cut the gordian knot of social reform by a rash repudiation of the caste system. Brahma Samaj and Arya Samaj are not in my humble opinion true reforms on national lines. In Southern India our respected countryman, Dewan Bahadur Raghunatha Rao, began to grapple with the problem of the marriage of girl-widows but has not to our knowledge done anything to destroy that seed-bed of girl-widows, viz., pre-pubescent marriage. “Marriage after puberty,” recently issued by this important Association, contains a mass of information, which will materially help students to arrive at a satisfactory solution of the problem of post-pubescent Marriage of Aryan girls. In Mysore also the Arya Dharmojjivini Sabha has commenced to work strenuously in the cause of reform and progress. About the Author:-Diwan Bahadur Rai Raghunatha Rao CSI (1831 –1912) was an Indian civil servant, administrator, politician and Indian independence activist who served as the Diwan of Indore from 1875 to 1880 and 1886 to 1888.
