"Jesus and Buddha: The Parallel Sayings"
- by Marcus Borg (Editor), Jack Kornfield (Introduction)
Book Description (Amazon.com Review):
If Jesus and Buddha were to meet, they would recognize one another as fellow prophets
because they were teaching the same truths. This is the spirit conveyed, both in words
and images, by this lavishly illustrated gift book.
Readers will cherish both the book's message and presentation. Here are two great
spiritual teachers from two very different traditions guiding us - whether talking
about love, wisdom, or materialism - along the same path.
Using meditative color photos to complement the universal truths these two charismatic
figures proclaimed, this - the first trade paper edition of the illustrated edition -
is an important and illuminating oracle of wisdom for all who believe that the spiritual
outweighs the material. At the same time, it is a fascinating and appealing anthology
of key beliefs within two of the world's great religions.
