Hindus and Christians have a long history of interaction on the Indian subcontinent. Since the latter half of the twentieth century, with the increased possibilities for immigration, Hindus and Christians live side by side in many parts of the Western world and there are growing numbers of Hindu-Christian marriages and families. In North America, for example, the population of Hindus is approaching three million. Hindu students are attending many colleges with a Christian history and ideals. To avoid the dangers of these communities sharing geographical space but not understanding each other, Pathways to Hindu-Christian Dialogue offers dialogue that fosters mutual understanding, respect, and learning in both communities.
Anantanand Rambachan is professor of religion, philosophy, and Asian studies at St. Olaf College, Northfield, Minnesota. He is the author of many books including A Hindu Theology of Liberation (2015) and The Advaita Worldview (2006). He is active in interfaith education and in the dialogue programs of the World Council of Churches and the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue. He was recently appointed co-president of the World Council of Religions for Peace.
