²⁰ "Inclusivism" has been coined as a concept by P. Hacker. See his lecture in *Inclusivismus: Eine indische Denkform*, ed. Gerhard Oberhammer (Vienna, 1983), 11–28; also Oberhammer's "Nachwort," in ibid., 93–113. The phenomenon has more often been commented upon. See, e.g., Louis Dumont, "For a Sociology of India," *Contributions to Indian Sociology* 1 (1957): 7–22, esp. 21: "Hinduism has repelled the onslaught of christianity by integrating those christian values which were not dangerous to it."
