Abstract

Throughout the history of civilization and historical developments, religions have played an essential role. Today the interfaith dialogue has taken on extra significance whereas the religions are actually different and divers and many conflicts and quarrels have done in the name of religion on the other hand. How we can provide a model for principles and guidelines of interfaith dialogue. In recent years, some theories and views have been presented about the method and policy of interfaith dialogue and some opportunities were given to apply them regarding promotion of mutual understanding, respect, tolerance and cooperation. However, the presented solutions remain far from ideal aims. This article will explore some methods of dialogue including triple paradigms of John Hick, Martin Buber's philosophy of dialogue and theory of antiphony by Koyama. Then it will discuss the method of dialogue based on mystical contemplation. In my view, the final presented method could be more secure way of dialogue between religions compared with other ones. The article tries to introduce and present the best useful method, policy and practice of interfaith dialogue by investigating and analyzing these four methods.
