Christian Zen: The Essential Teachings of Jesus Christ
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Jesus' remarkable and rather puzzling statements from the Gospel of Thomas, considered "secret sayings," have suffered centuries of misinterpretation, reinforcing a skewed view of both Christianity and Jesus himself. In Christian Zen, noted scholar Robert Powell deciphers their true meaning and shows how they mirror Zen philosophy. His commentaries explain that the sayings embody the timeless teaching of advaita, the esoteric expression of the inner meaning of all the great religions.
