Yoga teaches us to replace negative thoughts with positive thoughts.
But this only applies where those thoughts are true.
If someone is manifesting negative behavior it may help to think positive thoughts about them but not to the point of denying their negativity.
Christianity teaches that the truth will set you free.
So, rather than vying for supremacy, Eastern and Western religions should learn to cooperate.
Evil forces will try to magnify the differences between us and create conflict, even war.
This can also take place on a personal level.
So any efforts to promote cooperation and peace are contributing to God's work in the world.
