A LIBRARIAN’S ORIENTATION
What this book explores
Kadowaki, formed in Zen and later a Jesuit priest, explores how Zen practice and Christian biblical reading illuminate his own path.
EDITORIAL NOTE
Why it’s in the Library
It makes a specific Buddhist–Christian encounter available while keeping each speaker’s standpoint and the difference between practice, doctrine, and evidence visible.
Good starting place if…
You want a Christian writer whose formation in Zen shapes how he reads Scripture.
Know before you begin…
A situated synthesis that neither represents all Zen schools nor replaces historical biblical study.
