The author has tried to trace out the ethical thought of the ancient Hindus from the early Rig-Vedic period down to the age of the Mahabharata and the Dharma–shastras. The period covered here witnessed indeed the rise and fall of Hindu culture, it very interesting evolution in successive periods under diverse historical conditions. Yet while there is a rich diversity of moral ideals, presented to us during these periods of Hindu history, a clear thread of unity runs through all these. At no period can we say that there is a sudden break or charm in our civilization's continuity; an unmistakable attempt was made at every new turn to trace the changes of thought or practice to some old authority. Therefore, the Hindu ethical theory has an organic coherence about it; its childhood, period of adolescence, and old age were all definitely connected.
Thus the unchanging East went on perpetually changing, and yet at every slept forward it cast a constant glance at the past and thus preserved the unity of the Hindu social organism. The Hindu of today differs widely from the Vedic Aryan in almost every incident or accident of his position. The greatest task of the present age in the East is the discovery of the soul of Asia.’
The authors also hope that a systematic study of Hindu ethical thought will have an interest of its own for foreign scholars. It will help them to formulate a precise ethical theory comprehensive enough to meet all possible facts. Every people has ethics of their own; precise presentations are necessary in a vast, inductive study of ethical ideas of all times and all ages.
