The Higher Hinduism in Relation to Christianity: Certain Aspects of Hindu Thought From the Christian Standpoint

The Higher Hinduism in Relation to Christianity Certain Aspects of Hindu Thought from the Christian Standpoint (1902) by Thomas Ebenezer Slater explores the relationship between Hinduism and Christianity from a theological perspective. Slater examines key elements of Hindu philosophy, such as the concepts of divinity, salvation, and spirituality, and contrasts them with Christian beliefs. He argues for the compatibility of certain Hindu ideas with Christianity, proposing that Hinduism, in its higher form, can be seen as a precursor or fulfillment of Christian teachings. The work had a significant impact on missionary thought and influenced discussions at the Edinburgh World Missionary Conference in 1910.
