Rigveda's and Athenians' Unknown. Panikkar's Christological Pray�����a 2

The Mediating Mystery CHRIST although unknown present in all religions is Deo ignoto. Rigvedic expression ‘what God’ (kasmai devāya) (RV 10 121 1-9) is not a question but naming the unknown Mediator the cosmotheandric principle the prajāpati (RV 10 121 10). Athenians had an altar reserved for the unknown God Agnostos Theos. Perceiving that the altar was for the unknown Mediator of the Athenians St Paul preached Christ in Areopagus (Acts 17:22 ff.). The unknown CHRIST which Christians call Jesus Christ is unknown both to Hinduism and to Christianity. Rigveda''s and Athenians'' Unknown the second book of the series Panikkar’s Christological prayāṇa deals more about Panikkar’s explication of the principle of Mediation of an Absolute Brahman with the world analysing the Brahmasutra. Īśvara of Hindu scriptures is not explicitly about Christ. The Christ of Christians cannot be equated with Īśvara. Still if one analyses the `sensus plenior'' a fuller sense of humanity''s philosophical and theological texts one arrives at the `res significata'' the intended thing of the advaitic Īśvara leading to the philosophical possibility of a Christ.
