Acceptance of the oneness of mankind is the first fundamental prerequisite for reorganisation of the world religions. Humanism is a continual effort on the part of man to redeem himself as a creature of rich potentiality—an endeavour that is directed towards making man in its most comprehensive sense. In all phases of historical development, humanism has had to reckon with forces or factors that have been subversive of its characteristic thrust towards the betterment of the human condition. Here, we have presented a number of research papers of eminent scholars emphasizing on theoretical conception and practical implication of humanistic approach in global religio-philosophical perspective.
