About The Book : This Essay is an attempt to relate to the Christian Gospel the living forces of Hinduism. Of the inadequacy of my understanding both of Hinduism and of Christianity I am deeply conscious, but at least I have striven to deal with Hinduism as a living faith, and to speak of it with the fairness and sympathy with which we discuss the convictions of honoured friends. It is hard to express another's faith. I have sought to make the Sacred Books speak for themselves, and in the first half of the Essay have tried to illustrate the three great doctrines of Hinduism, karma , bkakti, and redemption, in a way that shall at least be textual and to that extent authoritative. The second half of the Essay is an endeavour to relate Christianity to these Hindu doctrines. Though Christ indeed is adequate, our Christianity often is not. To answer the aspirations of Hinduism an enlarged interpretation is required. We need to affirm that, for the Christian, eternal life is a present and indubitable possession. Christianity must be proclaimed as a religion of redemption, not from sin only, but from the world. About The Author : Sydney Cave (1883-1953) was a writer. He wrote An Introduction to the Study of Some Living Religions of the East and The Religious Quest of India :Redemption Hindu and Christian. The writer of the series of volumes of the variant forms of religious life if India are governed if their work by two impelling motives, first they endeavour to work in the sinecure and sympathetic spirit of science, second, they seek to set each form of Indian Religion by the side of Christianity in such a way that the relationship may stand out clear.
