I did: Regarding Amma¹s comments on http://www.amritapuri.org/amma/2005/508vedic.php Several people have pointed out the following to me: The British are responsible for preserving much of the ancient literature they found when they arrived in India. For many, no doubt, it was to study the "inferior culture", but others were very impressed with Hinduism as a way of thought and belief (C.S. Lewis, for example). There's no evidence that the British burned all the pramana granthas and 'validating texts' - in fact, if wasn't for the British many thousands of Indian sacred texts would have been lost to eternity. ------------------------ Yahoo!
