“In the West, people learn through the Socratic tradition. The education system was influenced by Western philosophy and is based on constantly questioning the knowledge that’s handed to you and arriving at the truth through that process of questioning. The Indian system took off from the Guru-Shishyha tradition in which your virtue as a student lay in taking tradition or parampara as it is given to you and passing it on to the next generation in the exact same way.”

“Alexandre Nevski a d’ailleurs toutes les raisons de penser que les « Allemands », comme on appelle alors tout ce qui vient d’Occident, constituent un danger plus effrayant que les Tatars. Les croisés occupent les territoires qu’ils conquièrent, ce que ne font pas les Tatars ; il y bâtissent des forteresses, des villes, s’emparent des terres. Les croisés, les « chiens-chevaliers » comme les nommera Marx, convertissent au catholicisme les populations soumises. Là encore, ils se distinguent des Tatars, très tolérants sur le plan religieux.”
