The encounter between religions in the world today is conflictual rather than dialogical. Religions are not the main reasons or sources of the conflicts. But they are very much part of it. Interreligious dialogue, therefore, has become very much a challenge. We seem to be entering a new era and we have to discover a new way of dialogue. This concerns both our understanding of what dialogue is, our reasons for it, and the conditions of dialogue. This is especially true of the Hindu-Christian encounter in India. There must be about a billion Hindus around the world. About 800 million of them live in India. Given this fact and my own background, I shall center my reflections around my Indian experience. We cannot grasp the newness of the situation fully without some understanding of the history that has brought it about. So, we shall have a brief look at the history of Hindu-Christian encounter before we go on to explore its challenge and promise today.
