Ramanuja and Schleiermacher argue in favour of the developing
discipline of comparative theology as a powerful method for gaining
critical insight into our inherited world views. The book compares
two preeminent theologians, Sri Ramanuja of the Hindu tradition and
Friedrich Schleiermacher of the Christian tradition. Each argues
that God sustains the universe at every moment of its existence,
but they work out the divine sustenance in very different ways. Can
the comparison of two theologians vastly separated in space and
time help contemporary theologians to think better? This book
argues that it can. Each argues that God sustains the universe at
every moment of its existence, but they work out the divine
sustenance in very different ways. By comparing their description
of God's continual preservation of the universe, this book asks
original, unfamiliar questions of each. This method demonstrates
the incisive power of comparative theology to generate critical
tension and its creative power to resolve it.
