India, without its own living traditions, has lost the ability to incorporate and adapt; what it borrows it seeks to swallow whole. For all its appearance of continuity, for all the liveliness of its arts of dance, music, anad cinema, India is incomplete: a whole creative side has died. It is the price India had to pay for its British period.
