First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. As new condition dark gray boards/dark green spine/gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Editor's Preface; Afterword: Conclusions About a Beginning by David Steindl-Rast, OSB; Introduction to Saint Benedict's Rule by Mary Margaret Funk, OSB; and Saint Benedict's Rule translated by Patrick Barry, OSB, Abbot of Ampleforth Abbey. "Benedict's Dharma combines the thrill of watching a dazzling performance with the secret pleasure of eavesdropping on a private conversation. In commenting on the Rule of Saint Benedct, the contributors are not trying to say anything new or startling, yet, for that very reason, they do. I am deeply grateful for this book." - Brother David Steindl-Rast, OSB "Four prominent Buddhists discuss Saint Benedict's Rule and the monastic tradition: Norman Fischer; Joseph Goldstein; Judith Simmer-Brown; and Yifa." - from the rear outer jacket "Saint Benedict's Rule is a set of guidelines that has governed Christian monastic life since the sixth century. Those who live according to the Rule, which regulates daily life in a monastery, regard it as the bedrock of their lives and feel great affection for its writer, a monk whose humility and extraordinary insight into human nature are legendary. The Rule has fascinated laypeople and monastics alike, including Buddhist monks and nuns who are intrigued by the similarities between their traditions and those of their Christian counterparts. Now, four prominent Buddhist scholars, Norman Fischer, a Zen priest and founder of the Everyday Zen Foundation; Joseph Goldstein, co-founder of the Insight Meditation Society; Judith Simmer-Brown, professor and chair of the Buddhist Studies Program at Naropa University; and Yifa, a nun at Fo Guang Shan Monastery in Taiwan and faculty members at National Sun Yat-Sen University, have turned their attention to this seminal text. The fruit of their discussion is Benedict's Dharma. Through personal anecdotes, lively debate, and thoughtful comparison, they reveal how the wisdom of each monastic tradition can revitalize the other, and how their own spiritual practices have been enriched through familiarity with the Rule. Their insights will appeal not only to Buddhists and Christians, but to anyone interested in the ancient discipline of monasticism and what it might have to offer a materially glutted and spiritually famished culture. [The book] also includes a modern translation of the Rule of Saint Benedict by Patrick Barry, OSB, the former abbot of Ampleforth. This very readable translation will serve as a valuable reference and make the Rule come alive for the contemporary reader." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
