Description
Summary:The increased involvement of religions today in the worldly prob- lems of man has brought a new dimension to the ongoing interaction among World Religions. In the past they focussed very much on their divergent approaches to man's final destiny and the nature of the ultimate Reality man was aiming at. Today greater emphasis is placed on the intermediary stages on the passage to the final goal and on the various means used in bringing about the rule of the Divine Principle in this world itself. T shall take the history of the Christian- Hindu interaction in India in the recent past as a model for examin- ing the dynamics of the common religious perspective that is emerging today.
