Where is it that both name and form Die out and leave no trace behind?" To that the answer is: In the mind of the Saint. Yet it is certain that such passages should not be interpreted as equivalent to the later Yogâcâra doctrine that only thought really exists or to any form of the doctrine that the world is Mâyâ or illusion.
I would urge the advisability of sending a Commissioner to meet the tribes of the Saskatchewan during their summer assemblies. It must be borne in mind that the real Indian Question exists many hundred miles west of Manitoba, in a region where the red man wields a power and an influence of his own.
In most nations there is a high standard to which man at least affects to look; and acts are extolled and seemingly appreciated, for their naked merits. Little of this exists in America, where no man is much praised for himself, but for the purposes of party, or to feed national vanity.
