Faith Talk with Anita: Join Me on the Journey

Christianity and Buddhism: Common Practices


Listen Later

This Faith Talk is a continuation of my previous episode (The Overlapping Space Between Christianity and Buddhism). In that

episode I shared some common teachings by comparing the words of Jesus with those of Buddha. In this episode I continue the conversation by looking at some common practices, including meditation, prayer beads, chanting, and prayerful, or meditative, walking. Christianity and Buddhism are separate and unique religions to be sure, and each inhabits its own distinct space in the world, but I believe the common practices that lie in the overlapping space are significant, and they deserve our attention.
