Description
The varied religions traditions are in a situation of inter-religious dialogue. It is not enough for any religious interpretation to be meaningful within the particular religious tradition itself but it should also be meaningful for the whole religious heritage of mankind. Therefore, the religious interpretations need to be carried out in the context of religious diversity.
The collection of papers being presented here is conceived in a genuine ecumenical spirit without being unfair to the rightful claims of the Sikh identity.
