Produktbeschreibung

The Buddhist view of inter-religious dialogue is significantly different from many other religions, because of the many incarnations of the Buddha and the concepts of dependent co-origination and emptiness. This book clarifies the Buddhist view of inter-religious dialogue.

---

This book tries to clarify a Buddhist view of interfaith dialogue from various points of view. It discusses how the Buddhist notion of Sunyata (Emptiness) works dynamically for mutual understanding and transformation of world religions. It also analyzes dialogue between Buddhism and Contemporary Christian theology, especially that of Paul Tillioh and Langdon Gillay.
