This new book from Sangarakshita offers one Western Buddhist's experience of Christianity and Christians. Through memoir and reflection Sangarakshita reviews his encounters with Christianity and the impact on him of its beliefs, culture, and people.
Sharing his appreciation of what is great in Christian art, literature, and music, Sangarakshita sets against this what he sees as an iron framework of dogma that has in various ways restricted intellectual and spiritual life.
"I wanted to share my experience, and my reflections on my experience, with those Western Buddhists who, like me, grew up in a Christian culture." Sangarakshita.
