Abstract: Diversities make uniqueness from each other. But these diversities sometimes create great fissures between human minds. Every moment people living in different parts of the world are subjected to exploitation of each other in the name of colour, caste and religion and smuggled out of the country and lose their lives in the midst of hunger and poverty. Even India, which thrives on the great concept of unity in diversity, often witnesses inequalities formed in the name of caste and religion. The solution of these social insecurities perhaps can be found in the Advaita Vedānta of Śaṅkarācārya, which originated in India itself. But how the principles enunciated centuries before by Śaṅkarācārya can be propagated throughout the world in a modern way can be found in the scriptures composed by Madhusūdana sarasvatī combining the Bhakti with Jñāna. This research paper attempts to examine how can the philosophy of Madhusūdana sarasvatī enhance people in all over the world and how a single religion can be constructed through these concepts in a possible and effective way.
