Introduction A substantial body of scholarly work in the recent decades has focused on Hindu-Christian studies. The studies have helped in the elimination of stereotypes against the followers of Hindu religion and encouraged Christian thinkers to reflect on the foundations of their religious beliefs through the motifs of Hindu. Ways of conceptualizing the divine reality as “gracious” in Hindu devotionalism remain a relatively unexplored theme mainly because the doctrine of grace in Christianity is related to a group of other notions like justification, and creation out of nothing, which lack clear analogue in the Hinduism. This paper is aimed at discussing the similarities in the Christian and Hinduism understanding of “grace” in reference to Karl Rahner’s theological thoughts, and South Indian SRI-Vaisnavism figures by showing how the concept of divine accessibility and divine freedom to human beings is confirmed in their specific theological contexts. 1 Rahner’s Christian Theology Karl Rahner is one of the most influential and popular Roman Catholic theologians in the modern world. He is a prolific writer whose ideas are widely accepted in shaping the future of the Catholic Church. In his doctrine of Christianity, death and resurrection of Jesus are among the most important teachings. Rahner argues that after a person’s death, the soul leaves the body but its relationship with the material remains. He argues that after death, the soul retains transcendental relationship with the body until the final resurrection. Rahner popularized the position of the anonymous Christian. This is the belief that God can save human beings through Jesus Christ even though they may lack knowledge of who Christ Jesus is and are not converts of Christianity.

According to him, people can get saved without allegiance to the Christian church. Christ reaches human kind from different places to save them. The term “anonymous” refers to people who experience God’s grace through Jesus Christ regardless of their religious background. 2 Hindu Theology Hinduism is among the oldest world religions. It is a complex and diverse religion with millions of gods. The religion exists in different sects with a variety of beliefs. It is the third largest religion in the world after Islam and Christianity, but primarily exists in Nepal and India. The main Hindu texts are Upanishadas, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, and the Vedas. The writings contain stories, poems, rituals, incantations, hymns, and philosophies that form the foundation of Hindu religion. Other texts like Aranyakas, Sutras and Bramanas are used by followers of the religion. Hindu is categorized as a polytheistic religion because Indians recognize and worship more than 330 million gods. However, they have one supreme deity known as Brahma. They believe that Brahma exists in three different forms that are Shiva-destroyer, Vishnu-preserver and Brahma-creator. 3 Similarities between Rahner’s Christian theology and Hindu Theology One of the most influential theologians in the Roman Catholic Church in the last century is Karl Rahner. In his teachings, Karl Rahner emphasized gratuitousness of grace but denied that grace is offered only to a fe
