Conversion National Debate or Dialoque?

---

“The Beloved gods… honours the members of all religions, whether ascetic or householder, by gifts and various honours. But they do not consider gifts and honours as important as the furtherance of the essential message of all religions. This essential message varies from religion to religion, but it has one common basic, that one should so control one’s tongue as not to honour one’s own religion and disparage another’s … By doing this one strenghens one’s own religion and helps the others, while by doing otherwise one harms one’s own religion and does a disservice to the others. Whoever honours his own religion and disparages another man’s… does his own religion the greatest harm.”

(The Twelth Rock Edict of Emperor Ashok, quoted from

T.D. Bary, p. 151)

“And so the Church has this exhortation for her sons: prudently and lovingly through dialogue and collaboration with the followers of other religions, and in witness to the Christian faith and life, acknowledge, preserve and promote the spiritual and moral goods as well as the socio-culturaS values found among them.” (Vat. II, NA. 2)

Swctmi Vivekanand

“Him call mabatman (great soul) whose heart bleeds for the poor, otherwise he is a duratman (wicked soul)… So long as the millions live in hunger and ignorance, I hold every man a traitor, who having been educated at their expense, pays not the least heed to them; I call those men, who strut about in their finery, having got all their money bygrinding the poor, wretches so long as they do not do anything for those two hundred millions who are now no better than hungry savages.”
