Interviews
with Dom Robert le Gall and Lama Jigmé Rinpoché
Fayard, February 2001 – Le Livre de Poche, May 2003
Presentation
What can we say about God or the absolute? Who are Buddha and Jesus, and what is the essence of their message? What is man and what is the meaning of his life? Is happiness the ultimate goal of human life? How can we explain evil? Is there anything after death? How do we pray and how do we meditate? What do Christian and Buddhist salvation consist of? What are the essential similarities and differences between these two great spiritual paths? These are the questions, fascinating for those interested in the mystery of life and human destiny, that two Buddhist and Christian spiritual masters, deeply rooted in their respective traditions, attempt to answer.
Organized by Frédéric Lenoir, this unique dialogue between a Benedictine monk and a Tibetan lama also allows us to gain a much better understanding, in terms accessible to the uninitiated, of the spiritual depth of Catholicism and Tibetan Buddhism.
