The Prophet and the Bodhisattva

World Religions

“This is a highly significant, vital book. Appropriate modern spirituality requires the interaction of the critical prophetic voice calling for incisive response to suffering and corruption, together with bodhisattva openness and commitment informed by deep awareness of interconnectedness. For the best in our American founding values to survive, and even for our human world to survive and thrive amid its current dangers, this intersection of the prophetic call and bodhisattva grounding in community and meditative awareness will be essential.”
