The Religion and Philosophy of the Veda and Upanishads v2.c41.67

v2.c41.67

⁸ Burnet, *Greek Philosophy*, Part I, pp. 57–63; cf. Mills, *JRAS.* 1902, pp. 897 ff.; Aall, *Die Lehre vom Logos*. S. Langdon (*JRAS.* 1918, pp. 443 ff.) argues for a Babylonian origin of the Logos as cosmic, connected with the primeval waters, suggesting that Thales derived his doctrine of water as the origin of things from Babylonian thought.
