Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
In his review of the 1932 English translation of Max Weber's famous study, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, United Church of Canada theologian John Line observed that Protestants in particular should pay close attention to Weber's findings. 'For they make it clear that Protestantism had a leading part in determining our present economic structure, a fact which puts in our hands a liability now that the faults of that structure have become apparent.' A few decades later Christians awakened to a similar sense of responsibility for environmental problems. One of the catalysts for this awakening was …

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Modern-day homes, offices and places of amusement are decorated with portraits of beautiful landscapes, flora and fauna. In some cases the walls are adorned with beautiful and exotic wallpapers to get a feeling of staying or living in the natural environs. Roadside hawkers are very busy selling beautiful pictures of nature in all its glory as they attract shoppers. People living in concrete jungles in big cities and towns crave for a refreshing glimpse of nature to enliven their drooping spirits.

Viewpoints: Environmental Awareness: The Hindu Perspective, R. Vijayalakshmi
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
The oldest religion of the people of India is Hinduism. It is a religion which was not propounded by a single individual, but was evolved out of the developments spanning several millennia. It has the distinction that it has assimilated the unique features of all the ages through which it evolved. From the time of its appearance it has grown by adapting itself to its environment. Several works have come forth as an expression of its doctrines from the very beginning. But there is no single gospel for Hinduism as, say, the Bible is for Christianity. The Vedas, the Brahmanas, …

On "Hindutva" And A "Hindu-Catholic," With A Moral For Our Times, Julius Lipner
On "Hindutva" And A "Hindu-Catholic," With A Moral For Our Times, Julius Lipner
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
The purpose of this article is to comment on the term hindutva, viz. "Hinduness," with special reference to a 19th century Bengali thinker who sought to indigenise his Christian faith, and to draw some topical conclusions. The thinker is Brahmabandhab Upadhyay (1861-1907) whom his sometime friend, Rabindranath Tagore, Bengal's greatest luminary, described as "a Roman Catholic ascetic, yet a Vedantin -- spirited, fearless, self-denying, erudite and uncommonly influential." No doubt Upadhyay was influential then; he had a powerful impact on Tagore himself especially when they were jointly establishing what would later develop as Tagore's brainchild of Santiniketan. For years previously …
Christianity And 'Other Religions': Contributions From The Work Of F. Max, Ronald Neufeldt
Christianity And 'Other Religions': Contributions From The Work Of F. Max, Ronald Neufeldt
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
The history of Christian Thought in the West is not notable for its efforts to come to grips with the claims of other religious traditions, except for the purpose of proselyizatioin, i.e. the concern to save souls. The attitude taken by Christian Churches toward other religions has often been labelled as exclusivism. In its extreme form its attitude has found expression in the assertion that among all peoples of the world, Christians alone have a corner on the truth.
Response To S. Gangadaran And Israel Selvanayagam, V.A. Devasenapathi
Response To S. Gangadaran And Israel Selvanayagam, V.A. Devasenapathi
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
The section on The Communion of Saints in the Tamil Saiva Tradition deals with most of the prominent features. I feel that reference to "the penetration of Brahmanic values such as the Agamic ritual tradition and individual liberation" as contributory factors to the decline of the saints' movement" and reference to Brahmanic Hinduism developing a social stratification on the basis of caste" could have been avoided. It is good to remember that great value is attached to 'Satsang' in the Sanskrit tradition. This recognition will in no way diminish the value in the Tamil tradition.

Mahatma Gandhi: A Living Embodiment Of Hindu-Christian Dialogue, Devadatta Dabhokar
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
I can only outline the main approach to this theme in the brief space available. I am aware that it would require a much more detailed and documented statement. I am also doing this exercise mostly under quotation marks to ensure authenticity. Even quotations, however, can be slippery and deceptive if torn out of their context and chronology. I can only hope that this summary statement will bear out closer scrutiny.
Viewpoints: Hindu-Christian Dialogue In Austria/Vienna As A Typical Example For Interreligious Dialogue, Birgit Langer
Viewpoints: Hindu-Christian Dialogue In Austria/Vienna As A Typical Example For Interreligious Dialogue, Birgit Langer
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
According to the Indian Embassy at present 4800 people from India live in Austria. Among them are approximately 1000 Hindus. Most of the Hindus live in Vienna. Hinduism does not belong to the religious communities -- like Islam or Buddhism -- which are acknowledged by the Austrian State. Therefore Hindu children, who visit Austrian schools, are registered with the notice "no religion." In Austria Hindus represent a very small minority. Nevertheless several institutions and organisations are occupied with Hindu-Christian dialogue in quite different ways.

The Communion Of Saints: Christian And Tamil Saiva Perspectives, S. Gangadaran, Israel Selvanayagam
The Communion Of Saints: Christian And Tamil Saiva Perspectives, S. Gangadaran, Israel Selvanayagam
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Discussions on saints normally focus on the nature and meaning of sainthood. While apostels, church fathers, martyrs and people of outstanding dedication are considered as saints in Christian tradition, the Vedic sages and gurus are taken as counterparts in the Hindu religious tradition. But mostly significance is attached to their individual worth, charisma and exemplary life. However, the communion of saints is a significant phenomenon in the New Testament and its resemblance seems to lie more in the wandering saints of the regional bhakti traditions of Hinduism (C-500-700 CE) than in the Vedic sages and gurus. Particularly the theological …

Response To Devadatta Dabholkar, David C. Scott
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
I want to begin my "response" -- which is in actuality more of the nature of participating in a conversation -- to Professor Dabholkar's observations by saying how much I appreciate his setting the tone of our interchange by stressing the centrality of the "inner dialogue" in Gandhiji's life. Certainly this is an essential element for an adequate understanding the incredible mahatma, or "great soul." Despite the obvious differences in faith nurtured by the Hindu and Christian religious traditions, Gandhiji, in his own peculiar manner, attempted to live out the Hindu and Christian modes of life. Gandhi, the Hindu, …

R. De Nobili A Forerunner Of Hindu-Christian Dialogue, Richard Desmet
R. De Nobili A Forerunner Of Hindu-Christian Dialogue, Richard Desmet
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Is interreligious dialogue as we understand and practise it today a concept which can help us discern better the nature of Father Robert de Nobili's undertaking in sixteenth century madurai and enrich ourselves from his experience? Was he not above all a religious guide, a guru known as Tattuva Podagar (the 'awakener to metempirical reality')? Is not this the title by which, on January 6, 1656, ten days before his death, he authenticated the twenty volumes of olas which despite his blindness he had dictated in his San Thomé retreat? Had he not endeavoured constantly to proclaim the saving truth …
