While the plurality of Hinduism is well understood, the massive cultural appropriation of Hinduism by Abrahamic traditions is not.

And many of the Swamijis in their quest for more disciples or who do not understand, say Christianity, pull out the, 'ekam sat, vipraha vadanti' quote trying to equate all religions.

At a certain point, you have to qualify what/who is a Hindu and who is not. If everything is Hindu, the word losses it's meaning.
Is ISIS Hindu? Is paganism Hindu?

I recommend to the discerning reader to become familiar with Rajiv Malhotra's writings on this topic. https://www.amazon.com/Being-Different-Challenge-Western-Universalism-ebook/dp/B005UQ3YT8
