Absolute Revelation and Universal Religion: An Evaluation of the Claims of Christianity and Hinduism in the Philosophical Perspectives of Swami Vivekananda, Wolfhart Pannenberg, and Karl Rahner

The mutual enrichment and tolerance between Christianity and Hinduism should be an important theme in any discussion of interreligious co-existence, because of the influence of both religions in the present day world. But is there a meeting point between Christian absolutism and Hindu universalism? Can pluralism be a solution? If the claim of one religion does not contradict the claim of the other, why should a mutual recognition, tolerance and coexistence be impossible? Why cannot the followers of different religions live together as brothers and sisters of one single loving Father? These and many other similar questions are dealt with in this book.
