Buddhism's Relation to Christianity: A Miscellaneous Anthology with Occasional Comment

About this book

There is a proverb in India to the effect that one should not inquire too deeply into the origin of rishis (God-men) or rivers. This book, however, seeks to plumb the very depths of the great puzzle of the relation between the Buddha and Jesus. The First Section features a select, annotated bibliography highlighting almost two hundred years of scholarly work on the remarkable parallelism between the messages and lives of the Buddha and Jesus.
