BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THIS PAPER: We, the Americans, have passion for Truth and are proud of the same. We do not claim to be infallible and like the common innocent people all around the World, do fall pray to the charm wielded by an above-average personality, be it in the field of religion or politics or even science and so on. However, once warned or alerted, our pursuit for truth knows no bounds and nothing can stop us in our endeavors to establish the truth and expose the lie, wherever called for. This Paper primarily seeks to throw light on the participation and actual contribution of Mr. P. V. Athavale in the Second World Religion Congress (first having been held only six months before!) organized by Ananai-Kyo, a local Japanese Religious Organization at Shimizu City, Japan, during 23.10.1954 to 3.11.1954. An attempt has been made to verify, by assimilating and analyzing the facts drawing support from the The Report, the veracity and correctness of various claims made by &/or on behalf of Mr. P. V. Athavale, through his various discourses, books, seminars etc. about his participation and contribution in the Congress. II.
