All interested in the revival of an Indian architecture must learn to distinguish its essential features from the unessential ones. And they must know what can be absorbed for our own advantage from not only the Muslim and the British styles but also from all the known and scientific methods that the civilized peoples of the world have evolved after long experience and repeated experiments. For, otherwise, India cannot expect to be modernized in architecture.
