Hinduism and Its Relations to Christianity

About The Book: The book not only explores the interaction between two specific faiths but also meticulously divides its content into four distinct sections. Part I delves into the earlier religions of India, including the earliest Vedic religion, Brahmanism, and Buddhism. Part II offers a deep study conducted by the author to comprehend the philosophy and various facets of Hinduism. Part III focuses on the interrelation between Hinduism and Mohammedanism, examining the significant period of India's conquest by Muslims and its impact on Hindus and Hinduism. Part IV serves as the core purpose of the book, exploring the connections between Hinduism and Christianity, encompassing their affinities and antagonisms. It also discusses the reform movements within Hinduism, such as the rise of Arya Samaj and Brahma Samaj, while examining Christianity's position and attitude towards them. The author suggests that while both religions share many leading religious truths, there are significant flaws within Hinduism that hinder the progress of its reform movements. Ultimately, the author believes that Christianity, with its religious truths, holds promising hope for India. Additionally, the book includes insightful appendices and covers subjects such as religion, history, Islamic studies, Christianity, and its missions. The author's research will prove valuable not only to historians and ethnologists but also to the Christian laity, church clergies, missionaries, mosque leaders, students, and researchers.
