This paper attempts an intercultural reading of the Jesus-Disciple relationship present in the Gospel of John taking the Tamil Śaiva perspective as a distinct hermeneutical approach. The paper presents select principles of ‘union’ represented in the master-disciple relationships of both John and Tiruvācakam and juxtaposes their implications to their respective contexts
