To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Why, in our sense, Grod is altogether incapable of a plural. Then in the Greek sense of the word ? No, certainly not ; for what the Greeks called gods was the result of an intellectual growth totally independent of the Yeda or of India. We must never forget that what we call gods in ancient mythologies are not substantial, living, individual beings, of whom we can predicate this or that. Deva, which we translate by god, is nothing but an adjective, expressive of a quality shared by heaven and e...arth, by the sun and the stars and the dawn and the sea, namely hrightness y and the idea of god, at that early time, contains neither more nor less than what is shared in common by all these bright beings. That is to say, the idea of god is not an idea ready-made, which could be applied in its abstract purity to heaven and earth and other such like beings ; but it is an idea, growing out of the concepts of heaven and earth and of the other bright beings, slowly separating itself from them, but never containing more than what was con- tained, though confusedly, in the objects to which it was successively applied.
