ACADEMY AWARD WINNER BEN KINGSLEY READS NOBEL PEACE PRIZE NOMINEE THICH NHAT HANH'S INSPIRING MASTERPIECE
"When you are a truly happy Christian, you are also a Buddhist. And vice versa." -- Thich Nhat Hanh
World-renowned thinker and scholar Thich Nhat Hanh, considered by many to be a "Living Buddah," explores the spiritual crossroads where the traditions of Christianity and Buddhism meet. Living Buddha, Living Christ reawakens our understanding of both religions and the connections between them.
The bestselling author of Creating True Peace, and one of the most beloved Buddhist teachers in the West, Vietnamese monk Thich Nhat Hanh has been part of a decades-long dialogue between the two greatest living contemplative traditions. In lucid, meditative prose, he explores the crossroads of compassion and holiness at which the two traditions meet, and reawakens our understanding of both. "On the altar in my hermitage," he says, "are images of Buddha and Jesus, and I touch both of them as my spiritual ancestors."

Great read!

Great read if you are wanting to understand more about the world. Helps open your mind to the possibilities that religions aren’t all that different and we have a lot more in common than we may realize.

Gracious, Mindful, and Evocative

When one is touched deeply, one is healed. Reading this book today, has set me on a path of being deeply touched and thereby deeply healed. Further, I gained more insight about myself than I could have imagined or hoped. For this I am grateful. I have already begun rereading it.

Great book regardless of your faith.

This is a great book regardless your religion orientation. It draws parallels between Christianity and Buddhism faiths, while exposing conflicts between the religions interpretations of said faiths.

Great Opportunity for Growth

I believe in the connectiveness of beliefs. This is an in-depth look at how two dominate beliefs intertwine. Loved it.

A cause for hope

If you want to be off the hook of religious dogma so that you can see the beauty of faith, then this book is for you. A reconciliation of tradition/religion/faith that creates room for all.
