It is surely a significant manifestation of the permanence of the
soul's quest for God that the Western world, at a time when human
values, principles, and ideals are being questioned and rejected,
has turned to an interest in the age-old practice of the East - the
quest for inner peace and tranquility as found in the profoundly
moving experience of contemplation after the method of Zen
Buddhism. In this deeply sympathetic study, the author compares the
principles and the practices of Zen with the traditional concepts,
aims, and results of Christian mysticism. His object is, first,
ecumenical - to explore the bases of Zen and Christian mysticism,
so that Buddhist and Christian can communicate; second, to rethink
the basic concepts of Catholic mystical theology in the light of
the Zen experience; and last, to encourage more people to
contemplative prayer.
