Description
Summary:The worldly problems of humanity today need no special restate- ment. Poverty, social injustice, the very real threat of a nuclear war, a steady depletion of natural resources, all these among other things are challenges that have assumed formidable proportions as they COIl- : front humanity today. I do not think, frankly speaking, that I can ans- , wet a question like what specifically would be the role and relevance of Hinduism in resolving contemporary world problems. I shall at- tempt something more modest-take a closer look at the spiritual re- sources and reserves of Hinduism under the stimulus of the challenges of contemporary problems.
