In the year 1880, in the month of January, on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the Brahmo Somaj, the birth of the New Dispensation was announced. In that pregnant year it was a specially pregnant month in which Protap Chunder Mozoomdar delivered his lecture on "Will the Brahmo Somaj last?" and Keshub Chunder Sen on "God-vision in the Nineteenth Century, " Two years later when the former was bringing out a book on the faith and Progress of the Brahmo Somaj he incorporated the said lecture as a separate chapter in it with some additions and alterations. As it is still asked and will continue to be asked for some time yet, it has been thought that Protap Chunder's answer to the question, Will the Brahmo Somaj last? will be a timely publication, and The Brotherhood, taking advantage of the eighth anniversary, has added this pamphlet to those already issued. The addition of a chapter on The New Dispensation taken out of the same book makes, it will be found, the answer more explicit.
