“Geiman provides an important balancing perspective on the purpose of the Buddha dharma for any era—not primarily to alter social or individual conditions of suffering but to eradicate the mental conditioning that gives rise to suffering and to embody that depth of freedom for others. It behooves socially engaged Buddhists to reflect deeply on Geiman’s critique, to assess whether we are truly engaging the fullest liberating potential of the Buddha’s teaching.”

“The most interesting questions for any worldview can only arise when it is juxtaposed with another, very different worldview. This book raises incredibly rich questions for Christians, Buddhists, and naturalistic atheists to ponder, that could only have come from an encounter with each other; questions that will challenge and profoundly inform readers, no matter what their worldviews.”
