What happens when a Tibetan Buddhist lama and a Christian clergyman
sit down to talk? And not just any lama and clergyman, but a
renegade Catholic priest silenced by the Church for his progressive
and inclusive beliefs and an American-born secular Jew who once
embraced Tibetan Buddhism as a student, and now is embraced as a
teacher. These conversations between Lama Tsomo and Matthew Fox
over the past years explore the essential principles shared by
their traditions—and the differences that distinguish them. The
Lotus & The Rose includes three public dialogues between
Matthew and Lama Tsomo during weekend workshops at Stanford
University, The Upaya Zen Center in Santa Fe, and The Jung Center
in Houston. Also included is a more personal conversation with no
audience except each other. And, finally, individual interviews
with both of them, revealing more about their own lives and
worldview. Also available to the reader are video excerpts from the
presentations, conversations, and interviews. Buddhists,
Christians, followers of other spiritual traditions—and perhaps
no spiritual tradition at all—will be intrigued by the range of
ideas, and impressed and enlightened by the knowledge and
experience that Matthew and Lama Tsomo bring to their exchanges. In
this perilously contentious world, all viewers will be heartened by
the admiration, respect, humor, and warmth that flows between these
two friends who celebrate their common ground and delight in their
differences.
