Common Ground Between Islam and Buddhism
Reza Shah Kazemi
With an Essay by
Shaykh Hamza Yusuf
Introduced by
H. H. the Fourteenth Dalai Lama
H.R.H. Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad
Prof. Mohammad Hashim Kamali
By exploring our mutual longing for ethical and spiritual community, we can find the means to reach the goal of peaceful engagement. Common Ground is both informative and inspiring. I am grateful for this initiative and believe that Muslims and Buddhists who live together, from America to Malaysia, will benefit from this scholarship and guidance."
-Ingrid Mattson, Professor of Islamic Studies, Hartford Seminary; and President of the Islamic Society of North America
Common Ground is a remarkable and beautiful, scholarly and wildly necessary message to the world. It illuminates how a wider understanding of the mercy and compassion, the wisdom and mutual respect shared by Islam and Buddhism can truly serve humankind.
-Dr Jack Kornfield, author of The Wise Heart: A Guide to the Universal Teachings of Buddhist Psychology
[This is] the essential aim of the Common Ground project: inviting into our tent the stranger who may not look, worship, or be like us in many ways, because he or she is a creation of God, here for a purpose, and someone to be honored as a fellow guest of God .... Buddhists are heirs to a very powerful spiritual training.
-Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Hanson (from his essay in this volume)
[Common Ground is] .... an earnest attempt to help Muslims to see Buddhism as a true religion, and Buddhists to see Islam as an authentic Dharma.
-Professor Dr Hashim Kamali (from his Foreword) |
