| Summary: | "The transformation that arises from interfaith encounter involves a realized experience of truth disclosure. This event of growth is elucidated as transformation by integration, incorporating elements of the other into one's own religious identity. This involves a renewal, expansion, and enhancement of understanding. For further illustration, the Buddhist and Christian traditions and their soteriological frameworks for transformation are explored. It is argued that interreligious dialogue, as a religious practice, engenders and supports the liberating transformation present in each religious worldview."-- |
