520 |a In the wake of the global rise of racism, populism, and nationalism, engaging with an array of religious others can be profoundly challenging. While tolerance is a good beginning to address the issue, it fails to remove our stereotypes and misconceptions of one another. To address the issue, scholars have developed pluralistic notions to promote the active seeking of understanding across lines of difference through dialogue and encounter, criticism and self-criticism. This article shows how profound spiritual experiences could deepen one’s perception of religious pluralism, encourage mutual understanding, and develop harmonious relations with religious others. Taking seriously the religious and spiritual experiences people report, I argue that such an experiential depth helps overcome external divisions through internal reflections. As a case study, I explore a Hindu-Muslim relationship between Pramukh Swami Maharaj, a Hindu monastic-guru, and Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, a devout practicing Muslim, through S. Mark Heim’s trinitarian theology of religions. I particularly compare their cordial Hindu-Muslim relations with Heim’s theology of understanding diverse religious traditions through various dimensions of the triune God. Building on this comparative theological study, I show how the experiential depth attained and maintained through close relationships and open dialogue could foster energetic engagement with religious diversity.
