Does any one religion have all the answers? Or must we find the answers to life's questions within ourselves? What would the Buddha think of Jesus' message of unconditional love? Would the Buddha and Jesus have any common ground? In Jesus Meets the Buddha, author James Kim attempts to answer these questions and many more by exploring the histories and beliefs of two of the world's major religions: Christianity and Buddhism.
Driven by his own desire to answer questions such as "Who am I?" and "Why am I here?" Kim builds on the discourses of the world's greatest thinkers to examine religions and philosophies, including Judaism, Hinduism, Confucianism, and even Voodoo. His conclusion is that every religion in existence today is a precious gem of human history and an irreplaceable facet of the giant mosaic that makes up our world. He argues that by combining Jesus' teaching with the long-held ethical and religious traditions of the East, we can build a meaningful unity for humankind.
Provocative and well-researched, Jesus Meets the Buddha is a must-read book for anyone interested in the world's religions or who is looking for their own answers about their place in the universe.
