This book examines the space of meeting between two religions that open up when there are honest attempts at interreligious learning. Taking Abhishiktananda and Bede Griffiths as examplars and the meeting between Advaita Vedanta and Christianity, the nature of the theological movements within are identified and the resultant hybridities assessed.

Following a Christian upbringing, the author joined a group studying Advaita Vedanta and remained a member in his twenties and thirties, though never rejecting Christianity. Returning more formally to the Church, and after training, he went on to become a lay minister (Reader) in the Church of England. He was later awarded an MA in theology, and a PhD by the University of Chichester. His working career has been in the charity sector, in Church-related community work, mental health, carer's support, and a number of other health-related charities. He continues his work as a Reader in the Diocese of Chichester.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This book examines the space of meeting between two religions that open up when there are honest attempts at interreligious learning. Taking Abhishiktananda and Bede Griffiths as examplars, and the meeting between Advaita Vedanta and Christianity, the nature of the theological movements within this Third Space are identified, and the resultant hybridities are assessed for their relevance to each tradition. After brief biographical sketches, the author considers how these two monks related to the Indian space and the background of colonial history, and then proceeds to use comparative theology and postcolonial theory to examine their theology. Third Space Theory provides insights into the process of hybridization that is taking place, leading to an appreciation of the importance and challenge in the modern world of Third Spaces of meeting.Jonathan Smith provides important explorations and reflections on a third space and the contribution of a postcolonial theology to the understanding of Christianity and Hinduism. It is a fresh and new challenging work on Abhishiktananda and Bede Griffiths.Professor Mario I. Aguilar, Director of the Centre for the Study ofReligion and Politics, University of St. AndrewsThis is a deeply learned and skilful exercise in interweaving resources of postcolonial theory and interreligious dialogue which highlights the multiple processes of conjunction, disjunction, opposition, and osmosis that dynamically shape the in-between domains of Hindu-Christian engagements.Dr Ankur Barua, Lecturer in Hindu Studies, Faculty of Divinity,University of Cambridge This book examines the space of meeting between two religions that open up when there are honest attempts at interreligious learning. Taking Abhishiktananda and Bede Griffiths as examplars and the meeting between Advaita Vedanta and Christianity, the nature of the theological movements within are identified and the resultant hybridities assessed.
