Abstract

When I first received an invitation to attend the Vaishava-Christian Dialogue in Potomac, MD in 2007, I felt both anticipation and
apprehension. Having just finished a degree in Theology from Harvard Divinity School, I had experienced my share of interfaith dialogues, both formal and informal. Connecting with people of other faiths can be incredibly enriching—it provides opportunity to extend beyond one’s routine social encounters and learn more about “the other” while simultaneously enhancing one’s own faith. It breaks down boundaries, generates friendships, and increases appreciation as we see each other more in terms of fellow human
beings rather than beings belonging to different camps.
