This short book (143 pages) is a readable comparative study of Christ and Vedanta ideals. The object is to find common ground, not to assert the superiority of one religion over the other. The major points are the concept of God incarnate in human form, the Saviour within us, love and tolerance and the harmony of religions. The reader is part of the discussion because the author frequently uses the pronoun "we". Swami Paramananda (1884-1940) came to America in 1906 and established a Vedanta show more Centre in Boston. He continued Swami Vivekananda’s message on the harmony of religions. show less
