Dr. James Kenneth Powell II, opensourcebuddhism.org This excellent work investigates the relationship between Trappist monk Thomas Merton and his Asian adventures, specifically the relevance of his meeting with Chatrul Rinpoche of the Nyingma Tradition.

Nov 22, 2008 - Thanks Jeremy, I think Buddhism and Christianity have a lot in common in their mystical traditions. I think language and terminology cause barriers, however we find that experience is still the same between people.
