Abstract:
Comparative theology involves systematic dialogue with another religion aimed at deepening and expanding one’s own tradition. The process of interreligious learning may take various forms which I have identified as: intensification, rediscovery, reinterpretation, appropriation, or reaffirmation. This article explores these types of learning through a focus on the topic of discipleship in Christianity and Hinduism. Though the notion of church may be less central to Hinduism, Christianity has much to gain from a systematic theological engagement with Hindu notions of discipleship and with their

Abstract:
Christian Theology is a discipline that seeks to reflect and interpret God&rsquo;s revelation in Jesus Christ and this interpretation is based on and for the faith community. In the early stages, the Christian theology in India had reflected the Hindu religious philosophies and practices. It is also translated Christian faith into the terminology of Hindu philosophical system which is based on <em>Advaita</em>, <em>Dwaita</em> and <em>Visistadwaita</em>, <em>Bhakti</em> and various <em>Margas</em> ideologies. Hence, the Indian Christian theology directly or indirectly fully influenced by these

Abstract:
ABSTRACTSwami Abhishiktananda (Fr. Henri Le Saux, 1910–1973) was a French Benedictine who wrote a pioneering work in Hindu-Christian dialogue entitled Saccidānanda: A Christian Approach to Advaitic Experience. Therein he attempted an inclusivist integration of the theologies of Advaita Vedanta and Roman Catholicism. He later rejected aspects of Saccidānanda and argued that Advaita and Christianity are too different to be integrated in this manner. In place of Saccidānanda, Abhishiktananda developed two positions at the end of the 1960s which anticipated current Roman Catholic debates over the

Theists additionally found God implicitly present in other incomplete, misguided beliefs providentially permitted by God for a time. Likewise, Hindu theorists of the 20th century, in the light of colonialism and missionary critique, ranked Hinduism's spiritual practice above externalist, historicist, and doctrine-oriented Western religiosity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe current resurgence of Hindu fundamentalism in India is broadly situated in the search for a pan-Indian Hindu identity, and in the assertion of a pan-Indian "Hindutva" (Hindu-ness) that is claimed to be the true heritage of Indians. This discourse inevitably involves the demarcation of the "Hindu" from the "other" — minorities defined as less Indian, if not foreign. Historical grievances are constructed against them and used to justify attacks on them. These "others", however, have their own discourses, their own constructions of identities, and their own articulations of historical

Abstract:
This article compares the oldest Hindu versions of the Golden Rule found in the Mahabharata with those in the gospels. What may the Hindu texts, which usually receive little attention, contribute to the understanding of the New Testament renditions? Methodologically the article draws from Clooney’s Comparative Theology and Moyaert’s approach of hermeneutical hospitality. In the Hindu texts the rule is understood in terms of ahimsa (non-violence). This seems to be close to Luke’s version, in which the maxim is closely connected with the appeal to love one’s enemies.

The cultural renaissance in 20th-century India has fostered an aesthetic integration of contemplative mysticism with popular religious practices, influencing various artistic and theological movements. This paper examines Christian artist Joy Elamkunnapuzha’s use of Indian classical and mythical elements in his religious artworks, particularly in two North Indian churches. These intercultural icons, which incorporate symbols from Hindu traditions like mandalas and mudras, have been central to the worship practices of local Catholic communities for over three decades.

AbstractThis article summarizes and compares the theology of religions propounded by two important modern participants in the Hindu-Christian encounter, Swami Vivekananda and Bede Griffiths. It will be seen that both thinkers construct theologies of religion in the form of hierarchies, and that, moreover, these hierarchies reveal a specifically Hindu and Christian understanding of spiritual truth and of divine presence. The article advocates the view that a comparison of these two understandings of truth can be beneficial to both Hindus and Christians by broadening each's understanding of divi

Abstract:
The following exposition of a certain pattern of the spiritualization of sacrifice in the Christian and Hindu traditions is an experiment in “comparative theology”: that discipline within theology which seeks to reflect upon data from two (diverse) religious traditions taken together, for the sake of the new light thereby shed upon the two sets of data and on related issues, particularly in one's own “home” tradition. In particular, I will juxtapose a certain understanding of the development of the Biblical theology of sacrifice with one line of development in orthodox Vedic liturgical theolog

Abstract:
This essay reflects on the Christian (Catholic, Jesuit) effort in India to explain and emphasize the importance of the atoning death of Christ. Arguments in defense of the unique and saving atonement of Christ can be narrowly apologetic and exclusory, based on moral grounds (Christ as the exemplar of selflessness for the sake of others), or efficacious grounds (Christ’s taking upon himself the sins of others to free all from the penalties of sin). Beyond the exemplary and efficacious, however, the aesthetic (visual, poetic) and contemplative gaze upon the crucified still more powerfully communicates what that death is about: One ought to see Christ crucified, contemplate him in his suffering. Along the way, I also take note of some Hindu views on vicarious suffering, challenging or resonating with fundamental Christian sentiments and commitments. The essay concludes that a recognition of the power of the aesthetic and contemplative appropriation of Christ’s death invites a certain mutuality and also a Christian appreciation of the suffering of divine persons in certain strands of Hinduism.
