    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Priya: So ... I cannot bring salvation to myself? Jesus: No, Priya. Salvation is from above. Buddha talked to you about being reborn in another consciousness and in a different person. The transformation I bring is not to think oneself into a different person, but to yield to the transcending...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Buddha: Well, I gave my disciples no written word as an abiding authority. Jesus: Now we're getting somewhere, Gautama. Why didn't you give them an abiding authority? Buddha: Because ... everything is impermanent. Jesus: Even that statement? Is that impermanent too? Buddha: I think ...I'll...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Jesus: Think about these two words, superstition and legalism. They end up looking the same but are born out of different sentiments. Superstition in its essence is actually a subtle lack of faith in God. if there is no righteous God in control of all things, a person ends up trying to appease...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Jesus: I'll just say that your espousal of an absence of self is the most unique and fearsome claim you made, a concept that cuts across virtually every major belief. You turned from Hinduism because it said there was an essential self, which they called the atman. And on that denial you hung...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Jesus: How do you break free from the tension? You insist on the pursuit of truth wherever it leads but get snared by this breakdown in your own claim. You not only claimed to know everything, but you also said that you knew even more than God. Job thought he knew everything, too, and when God...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Buddha: Yes, that's true, and I hesitate to say much more because, as you know, Jesus, after I realized enlightenment, I actually thought of spending my life without uttering a word of what I'd found. I was convinced that my discovery was unique and to most people unfathomable. But I broke my...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Priya: I've always admired you for that, O venerable one! Buddha: I didn't do it to be admired. I did it because I was in search of answers. My first path was the way of the ascetic. I labored at that for six long years. I ate hardly anything, starving my body in search of the self. I followed...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Jesus: Has to be paid for? Look at the masses alongside these shores-harried, preoccupied, all busy trying to earn a living. Carved into their consciences is this enormous moral debt you speak of. What an unbearable burden you're laying upon humanity, Gautama! How does one pay? With what does...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    You've hinted at a timeless truth, though, that time isn't just a fleeting thing. It never moves forward without engraving its mark upon the heart-sometimes a stab, sometimes a tender touch, sometimes a vise grip of spikes, sometimes a mortal wound. But always an imprint. Priya: You don't think...

    JESUS TALKS WITH BUDDHA

    Jesus: Sit here next to me, Priya. And what a lovely name you have-Priya, meaning "sweetheart" or "beloved." Yet the stillness of the morning does not silence the scream of your heart, does it? Priya: I can't resist a smile as I think of my name, even the way you pronounced it, Sir. Strange...
