Synopsis
An ecumenical anthology, Thoughts on the East gathers Merton’s essential definitions of the religions that so much interested him―Taoism, Buddhism (in many forms, but especially Zen), Sufism, and Hinduism.
Unified by Merton’s belief that East and West share “a unity of outlook and purpose, a common spiritual climate,” this eclectic selection also offers a fascinating introduction by the late George Woodcock, author of the acclaimed critical study, Thomas Merton: Monk and Poet."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
About the Author
Thomas Merton (1915-1968) entered the Cistercian Abbey of Gethsemani in Kentucky, following his conversion to Catholicism and was ordained in 1949. During the 1960s, he was increasingly drawn into a dialogue between Eastern and Western religions and was actively engaged with domestic issues of war and racism.
