Practical Advaitism, which looks upon and behaves to all mankind as one's own soul, was never developed among the Hindus... If ever any religion approached to this equality in an appreciable manner, it is Islam and Islam alone... I am firmly persuaded that without the help of practical Islam, theories of Vedantism, however fine and wonderful they may be, are entirely valueless to the vast mass of mankind... For our own motherland a junction of the two great systems, Hinduism and Islam—Vedanta brain and Islam body—is the only hope. I see in my mind's eye the future perfect India rising out of this chaos and strife, glorious and invincible, with Vedanta brain and Islam body.
