Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is an issue of religious pluralism and inter-religious impacts typocal for the integral tradictionalism represented by R. Guenon, F. Schuon and A.K.Coomaraswamy. The aim of this study is to expose differences between the points of view of traditionalism and syncretism as well as the Catholic Church.

The second part involves an idea of transcendent unity of religion and a role of inter-religious influences. Finally, there is a short analysis of the presented theses.
