520 _aThis publication is a collection of essays written by educationists, historians, media persons, religious thinkers, social scientists and activists on the theme of promotion of communal harmony and national integration. These writings will help in clarifying some of the misconceptions and misunderstandings about religions. The new millennium is the millennium of humanism. Religions, which are not sensitive to human aspirations and do not foster unity, understanding and tolerance, will not survive in the long run though they may strive to divide humanity. Inter-religious understanding is the crying need of the hour. The primary aim of the seventeen essays in this compilation is to achieve the aim of sensitising the readers towards the need for spreading the message of peace, tolerance and harmony among the people.
