Description

Explore a fresh perspective on interreligious dialogue with Hindu Mission, Christian Mission: Soundings in Comparative Theology. This work from the SUNY series in Religious Studies provides a new way to look at questions of mission and conversion. Instead of focusing solely on the friction of conversion, this book examines mission as a broader category of thought and practice. For four hundred years, Hindus and Christians have been involved in public debates regarding missionary proselytization, particularly within India and the Hindu diaspora. This text reframes that long-standing controversy through a close study of the Chinmaya Mission, the Ramakrishna Mission, and other movements tied to the Hindu tradition of Advaita Vedanta. It is an essential resource for anyone studying the historical and theological tensions between these two traditions and seeking a deeper understanding of how religious movements define their outreach and identity.
