The church in India is in duty bound to investigate and as far as possible of the religious values found in Hinduism the religion of the great majority of the Indian people which embodies the most searching quest in the natural order if the Divine that the world has known. The results of this investigation will show the way, towards an indigenous theology, which is a pressing need of Christianity in India. In India we are experiencing in every walk of life a peaceful revolution; in economics and politics the old views are giving way to new ones; in religion, ancient monistic views are re-interpreted and are posing a challenge to every other religion with renewed vigour and self-confidence. Many influential Hindu theologians today favour some kind of monism. Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan is undoubtedly the best known of all these modern Hindu thinkers. His position has become significant to resurgent Hinduism because he has attempted, with considerable success, to modernize Sankara who is the universally accepted St. Thomas of Hinduism. Like Sankara he is trying to restate the eternal meaning of the Hindu religions. If Sankara's mission was to the Hindus alone, Radhakrishnan's is to the entire world. In recent years Christian intellectuals of India are showing a growing interest in him, because he evaluates every point in Christian theology in the light of the re-interpreted religion of the Upanishads.
