This paper offers a comparative analysis of Hinduism and Judaism, largely based on references and quotes from the book
The Jewish Encounter with Hinduism—Wisdom, Spirituality, Identity
by Dr. Alon ...Goshen-Gottstein. It visits topics such as ethnicity, conversion, pluralism and universalism, tolerance and intolerance. The paper also questions the reasons of Jewish seekers of Hindu spirituality, doubting Dr. Goshen-Gottstein’s argument that this is due to a crisis in Judaism, but rather due to prevalence of left-brain thinking over right-brain thinking in Judaism. The paper concludes with a parable that relates to one finding a treasure hidden where one least expects to find it.
