Sanjay Dixit is becoming one of the most important intellectual and media voices in India today. All Religions Are Not the Same explains the many notable differences between religions in a systematic, rational, experiential and concise manner. This extends to how different religions look at the human being, society, knowledge, the nature of the universe and the true goal of life. The book is not the product of emotion or political posturing, but arises from well thought out clarity and discernment. He is not promoting any platitudes, bowing down to any faith, or ignoring major distinctions between religions so as not to offend anyone. He reveals the fundamental differences between religions on the inner and the outer, the individual and the collective, at human and cosmic levels, much like a scientific discourse.
He presents Hinduism and Sanatana Dharma in its own right, not according to a monotheistic terminology using inappropriate Abrahamic concepts. He shows how Sanatana Dharma forms a complete system of universal knowledge, not requiring the approval of contrary religions for it to be socially, scientifically, or spiritually valid.
