Christians Talk about Buddhist Meditation, Buddhists Talk About Christian Prayer cover

A discussion of the merits and disadvantages of Buddhist and Christian approaches to prayer and meditation. It looks at questions such as: what can a Christian, for example, learn from the mental and physical rigor of Buddhist meditative practice?; and what can a Buddhist learn from traditional Christian prayer? They examine the difficulties and possible loss of religious identity if a Christian or Buddhist mixes thier practice techniques.

"A productive new approach to the Christian-Buddhist dialog,... Thought-provoking enough for specialists, these articulate views from informed followers of the "other" faith are also accessible to general readers.
