    I read this many years ago and don't remember a lot BUT, I do remember it to be interesting. I must re-read this sometime on the future.

    A nice comparison of Buddhism/Christianity. Not so much comparing dogma or theology, but the experience of the "living Buddha" and "living Christ" in the lives of believers. A gentle and compassionate plea for dialogue and mutual understanding.

    A beautiful book written by a Vietnamese Buddhist monk to show us that all religious traditions are the common heritage of the human race. On the second page of his book, the author explains to us his view of the world of religion: “To me, religious life is life. I do not see any reason to spend one’s whole life tasting just one kind of fruit. We human beings can be nourished by the best values of many traditions.” In this book, he focuses on Buddhism and Christianity, “two of the world’s beautiful flowers.”

    Beautiful comparisons of Christ and Buddha. I read this in highschool and it was very helpful in reconciling my Christian faith and respect for the Buddhist way of life.

    I got incredibly indignant over his description of Buddhism's necessity of living in the moment and couldn't finish it because I have far too many objections to it.
