Description
In Living Buddha, Living Christ, renowned Zen teacher and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh explores the shared spiritual foundations of Buddhism and Christianity. With clarity and compassion, he considers how the teachings of the Buddha and Jesus can deepen an understanding of mindfulness, love, peace, and spiritual practice.
Rather than reducing the two traditions to simple similarities, Thich Nhat Hanh approaches each with respect and shows how interfaith understanding can enrich a person’s own path. With an introduction by religious scholar Elaine Pagels, this enduring work will appeal to readers of Buddhism, Christianity, comparative religion, mindfulness, and interfaith spirituality.

Why we love this book
This approachable interfaith classic builds a thoughtful bridge between two of the world’s great spiritual traditions. Thich Nhat Hanh’s gentle, inclusive voice makes it especially valuable for readers seeking common ground between Buddhist mindfulness and Christian contemplation.
