Abstract

The aim of this article is critical analysis, from religious science point of view, little known subject till now, to create one world universal religion, which was introduced by Indian thinker and social active person - Bhagavan Das (1869- 1959). B. Das proposes to form one total, syncretic, „Universal Religion" on the ground of distillation of existing religions all common truths, from which then, on the way of synthesis, would become one absolute „Universal Religion" On the basis of passed analysis the author reached the conclusion, that represented by B. Das project of global religion leans on premises founding equality of existing religions, in aspect of truth, what drives to relativation of the world religions. However, this concept is lacking in respect for the right to own world religion’s identity.
