Sree Narayana Guru’s vision is slowly becoming acknowledged as comparable to those of Ambedkar and Gandhi, Aurobindo and Vivekananda and even transcending theirs in some sense. The present article is an attempt to follow up my two earlier articles on the Guru. Here I would like to argue that Sree Narayana Guru’s vision anticipates the contemporary rethinking of the role of religion within Indian society. Religion has been perceived either as a weapon of oppression or as a means of social protest. The tradition we are dealing with seems to favour neither of the above.Instead offers a unique way to reintegrate the prevailing religious tranditions for the reworking of "global ethics".
