To defeat the narrow vision

The only way to 'defeat' the 'my-truth-the-only-truth' religions of Islam and Christianity is to expose the world at large to the Advaitic vision of Vedanta. When we realise that the ultimate in religion is the discovery of our true self as being no different from the God we have been worshiping, peace shall prevail, both at the individual level and at the social level. It is heart-warming that most of the Hindu Gurus since Swami Vivekananda have been preaching this truth, nay living this truth. The result is that the best of minds the world over are taking to the meditative religions of the East and questioning dogmatic Islam and Christianity (Churchianity).
