Description
Zen Wisdom for Christians explores how spiritual paths can learn from one another. Anglican priest and Zen teacher Christopher Collingwood draws on his experience to show how Zen can help Christians deepen their spirituality.
By examining the teachings of Jesus in the gospels alongside Zen koans, this book offers a fresh perspective on Christian living. It invites readers to consider a way of life that is inclusive and at one with all, rather than based on self-centredness and a separate, isolated self.
This radical reorientation can lead to a more profound religious experience and enhance spiritual growth through mutual appreciation. A thought-provoking exploration of how Zen and Christianity can inform each other, this book is ideal for those seeking a greater depth of spirituality.
