Creatively exploring the points of confluence and conflict between
Western psychology and Buddhist teachings, various scholars,
researchers, and therapists struggle to integrate their diverse
psychological orientations -- psychoanalytic, humanistic,
cognitive-behavioral, transpersonal -- with their diverse Theravada
and Mahayana Buddhist practices. By investigating the degree to
which Buddhist insights are compatible with Western science and
culture, they then consider what each philosophical/psychological
system has to offer the other. The contributors reveal how Buddhism
has changed the way they practice psychotherapy, choose their
research topics, and conduct their personal lives. In doing so,
they illuminate the relevance of ancient Buddhist texts to
contemporary cultural and psychological dilemmas.
