Thoughts on Our Many Years of Vaishnava-Christian Dialogue: Journal of Vaishnava Studies

Abstract

This past November in San Francisco at the American Academy of Religion Conference, there was a panel entitled, “What’s Wrong with Hindu Theology?” Dr. Reeta Sherma began her thoughts with this quote from Jelaluddin Rumi. I was struck by her reference, especially in that context, in a discussion of Hindu and Christian ways of doing theology. At that time, I thought, yes, this is my experience of our many years of Vaisnava Christian dialogue.
