As the gospel continues to spread to the farthest corners of the world, the Christian faith encounters an array of diverse cultures, religions, philosophies, and belief systems. This encounter serves as a catalyst for transformation, as Christianity both influences and is influenced by the new frontiers it reaches. The book at hand endeavors to explore this dynamic process, particularly focusing on the Trinitarian theology as a potent force for transformation. Moreover, it seeks to uncover the resonance between Christian concepts and the rich tapestry of Dharma, thereby enhancing our understanding of the Trinity. In essence, this book serves as a pivotal example of how abstract theological ideas can be made relevant and meaningful in the context of a multicultural and multireligious world. It embodies an approach to Christian theology that is both interreligious and interdisciplinary, emanating from a global Christian perspective that embraces diversity and dialogue.

Reviews for The Trinitarian Dharma

""The Trinitarian Dharma is a masterfully crafted, riveting, and distinctly inspiring work that radiates theological creativity and brilliance. It boldly dares to present a contextual systematic theology of the Trinity with unwavering fidelity to the gospel, resolutely refusing to compromise its essence on the altar of inculturation. Pabitra Mani Bhandari emerges as a luminous voice among a new generation of Asian theologians--one who transcends the reactive shadows of Western Christianity and Asian religious pluralism, engaging both as dynamic and critical partners. In this groundbreaking work, Bhandari weaves a symphony of theological depth, interreligious insight, and intercultural resonance, boldly charting new territories in contextualized systematic theology."" --Chammah J. Kaunda, academic dean, Oxford Centre for Mission Studies ""This insightful book encourages Christians, particularly in multi-religious contexts, to contextualize their faith and theology. It explores a constructive dialogue between the Nepali concept of dharma and the Christian understanding of the social Trinity. By doing so, it assists Asian churches in engaging more effectively with pluralistic societies. The work also significantly contributes to the reimagining of global Christianity, emphasizing the importance of diversity in theological expressions."" --Jooseop Keum, general secretary, Council for World Mission
