one the life of the world can follow。            If earthly existence be an evil; then 

Buddhism will help us ignore it; but if by an impulse we cannot explain 

we instinctively crave activity of mind; then the great gospel of Gautama 

touches us not; for to abandon selfegoism; that is; not selfishness is the 

true vacuum which nature abhors。              As for Far Orientals; they themselves 

furnish proof against themselves。            That impersonality is not man's earthly 

goal   they   unwittingly   bear   witness;   for   they   are   not   of   those   who   will 

survive。     Artistic attractive people that they are; their civilization is like 

their own tree flowers; beautiful blossoms destined never to bear fruit; for 

whatever      we    may    conceive     the  far   future   of  another    life  to  be;   the 

immediate   effect   of   impersonality   cannot   but   be   annihilating。         If   these 

people continue in their old course; their earthly career is closed。                 Just as 

surely as morning passes into afternoon; so surely are these races of the 

Far East; if unchanged; destined to disappear before the advancing nations 

of   the   West。    Vanish   they   will   off   the   face   of   the   earth   and   leave   our 

planet   the   eventual   possession   of   the   dwellers   where   the   day   declines。 

Unless their newly imported   ideas really take root; it is from this   whole 

world   that   Japanese   and   Koreans;   as   well   as   Chinese;  will   inevitably  be 

excluded。       Their     Nirvana     is   already    being    realized;    already    it  has 

wrapped Far Eastern Asia in its winding…sheet; the shroud of those whose 

day was but a dawn; as if in prophetic keeping with the names they gave 

their   homes;the      Land    of  the   Day's   Beginning;      and   the   Land    of  the 

Morning Calm。 



                                                113
