Editorial Review:

Product Description:
10th anniversary edition of the classic text, updated, revised, and featuring a Mindful Living Journal.

Buddha and Christ, perhaps the two most pivotal figures in the history of humankind, each left behind a legacy of teachings and practices that have shaped the lives of billions of people over two millennia. If they were to meet on the road today, what would each think of the other's spiritual views and practices? In this classic text for spiritual seekers, Thich Nhat Hanh explores the crossroads of compassion and holiness at which the two traditions meet, and he reawakens our understanding of both.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Deeper Meaning
I am a Catholic and this book helps me to understand the true meaning of my faith. Shows you how much we have in common. What does it mean to live a peaceful life with yourself, nature and your surrounding.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - hard work, good stuff
The book is well written, a bit repetitive. The comparison of Buddha and Jesus Christ has some merit. That which he advises the reader to do sounds simple but in fact, it would take 20 years to become a good monk of either faith.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - who can argue with the content of this book?
Loved the book's content - did not like the binding. One of those books that does not open easily. If there were a different version of this book, I might recommend trying that.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Illuminating
As with his other works, Hahn's thoughts are always illuminating. I use illuminating in a very deliberate manner: he helps show us the way but is not the way(as the Buddha said, my finger may point you to the moon but my finger is not the moon). The ways of thinking expoused by both belief systems work best when they are lived. And that's his Big Idea: it is living the precepts, not thinking about them or even believing them, which is what matters. When they are lived, that is true prayer. He suggests how to do so. The book is an extended meditaion on this core idea. Good intro by Pagels.
